St-Sulpice, Switzerland: At this year's Automate show, AGV/AMR navigation leader BlueBotics will highlight how its ANT server management software enables the creation of multi-brand fleets. Its team will also join forces with partner Oceaneering Mobile Robotics to host a seminar dedicated to building the business case for automated vehicle technology.
"As the AGV market grows and continues to mature, more businesses are realizing the need for scalable custom fleets, which can incorporate different types and even brands of vehicle," said BlueBotics CEO Nicolas Tomatis. "Our team will be happy to explain to Automate's visitors how the ANT navigation platform - in particular, our ANT server software - can enable that."
Building the business case for mobile robotics
Meanwhile, at the Automate Automation Theater, BlueBotics' Matt Wade will team up with Matt Slack of Oceaneering Mobile Robotics to help visitors understand the key assessments involved in calculating the business case for AGVs and AMRs. This 'don't miss' session will span manufacturing and intralogistics, featuring two detailed case studies from the automotive sector.
"Today the mobile robotics market is thriving due to hiring and retention challenges, and the need to build more productive, competitive, and resilient businesses. However, determining the value that mobile robotics can bring to your specific operation, and making a solid business case for this technology, can be a challenge," said Dr. Tomatis. "In our seminar, Matt from Oceaneering will help walk visitors through the process. We'll dive deep into the key factors that impact ROI and then supplement these learnings with in-depth case studies that give visitors real-world proof points from the U.S. manufacturing sector."
Automate 23 runs from May 22 to 25, 2023 at the Huntington Place Convention Center, Detroit, Michigan, USA

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
