Bastian Solutions, a Toyota Advanced Logistics company, was named a gold winner in the 2023 Edison Awards. The company is being honored in the Enhanced Automation category for its Bastian Solutions SmartPick™, a robotic bin picking solution, that combines cutting-edge AI-powered vision technology, industrial robotics, and goods-to-person technologies to create goods-to-robot solutions capable of picking the most complex assortment of products with 99.9% accuracy, gaining knowledge from previous picks to better handle various product shapes, sizes and surfaces.

The Edison Awards, named after the American inventor Thomas Alva Edison, recognizes some of the most innovative products and business leaders in the world with past winners including Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, General Motors, and Genentech. The prestigious awards honor excellence in new product and service development, marketing, design, and innovation. All nominations go through a review process by the Edison Awards Steering Committee with the final ballot being determined by an independent judging panel.

Bastian Solutions keeps its customers at the core of everything we do, and our incredibly talented employees help us serve our mission of being a best-in-class organization,” said Ron Daggett, Senior Vice President, Technology and Engineering
