Arrowmax’s Arrowspace S1 is an electric screwdriver kit designed to identify screws and select a matching bit using a camera and the company’s AI model. The device also offers automatic torque adjustment; the campaign has passed its funding goal, with shipments planned to begin in April 2027.

  • The S1 scans a screw with a built-in camera and uses an AI model trained on tens of thousands of real-world photos to identify its size and shape.
  • A connected smart case lights the slot for the recommended bit, while the screwdriver adjusts torque automatically.
  • The campaign launched on October 20 and met its goal within 24 hours; shipments are planned to start in April 2027.
