Realtime Robotics, the leader in collision-free autonomous motion planning for industrial robots, announced that Ville Lehtonen has been named the company’s Vice President of Product.

Ville brings a rich technology, product and leadership background to Realtime Robotics, having most recently served as Head of Product at Pickle Robot. At Pickle, Ville was instrumental in guiding the robotics company to its leadership position in the truck and container loading and unloading industry.

“Ville’s track record speaks for itself, and we’re confident he will be an excellent addition to the team,” said Kevin Carlin, Chief Commercial Officer at Realtime Robotics. “Our Optimization solution is already helping several manufacturing companies to reduce cycle times and improve productivity. With Ville’s expertise, we can evolve to meet additional customer needs and expand its adoption throughout the manufacturing and logistics industries.”

Prior to Pickle, Ville was the Head of Product for HighRes Biosolutions, a laboratory automation software company, and was the Co-Founder and CEO of LabMinds Ltd., a laboratory automation company. Ville holds a BS and an MS in Computer Science from the Helsinki University of Technology and an MBA from Oxford University.

“I look forward to helping already highly automated production lines become even more efficient and cost-effective with the use of Realtime’s Optimization technology. I am confident we can help manufacturers save tens of thousands of hours on their industrial robotics projects,” added Lehtonen. “What Realtime is doing is a massive gear change in deploying automation. While this will be incredibly helpful for current manufacturers, the most exciting opportunities come from unlocking the economics for companies operating on a far smaller scale than the heavy users of robots. Realtime’s technology stack also can do for kinematics what real-time object detection frameworks like YOLO [You Only Look Once] have done for computer vision, further lowering the barriers to entry in the robotics space.”
