This is One North Stories, an A*START CENTRAL Podcast

After deciding he wanted to do a start-up company, Shin spent two years hanging out in the start-up scene, learning as much as he could and then assembled his founding team. Wanting to work at the intersection of Augmented Reality/ Virtual Reality and Robotics, he left the Advanced Remanufacturing and Technology Centre, A*STAR and started Augmentus with his two co-founders.

The team bootstrapped for around 1.5 years and found validation with ABB and with their ‘no-code’ robot arm movement software. The team continues growing, opening an office in Austin Tx, USA in 2024. They dream of a future where if you need to program a robot, Augmentus is the first tool that comes to mind.
