Challenge
The Global Robotics team wanted to showcase innovations including the Universal Robotic Labeler — an algorithmic optimization system that reduces packaging waste.
✓ Live robotics integration in broadcast environment requiring precise CAD sightline analysis and camera blocking
✓ Finding the optimal label placement is invisible; the business impact (1 billionth package without extra packaging) is abstract.
✓ European markets sensitive to automation/job displacement; narrative needed to emphasize "enhanced jobs" without triggering union concerns or panic.
Solution
Human machine partnerships positioned LLMs as tools for investigator efficiency, not replacements.
Used the 6M → 700K bad actor metric as concrete evidence of system precision without revealing detection algorithms.
Motion graphics display decision velocity with all actions evaluated with human oversight checkpoints visible to avoid "decision mystery".
Simple overlay graphics display data over objects to illustrate vision.
