BlueBotics to Showcase AGV/AMR Interoperability and Share Usage Trends at MODEX 2024
The company's partner-focused exhibit on booth C6092 will feature a full multi-brand AGV/AMR fleet demo managed by the BlueBotics ANT server fleet management software. In addition to this live example of vehicle interoperability, the stand will include six vehicle-brand kiosks staffed by BlueBotics's AGV partners and associated materials.
Tuesday, 27 February 2024, St-Sulpice, Switzerland — BlueBotics, the global leader in natural feature navigation and part of ZAPI GROUP, will be at MODEX 2024 to showcase the complete 'ANT driven' ecosystem of interoperable AGVs and AMRs and to provide unique industry insights on the adoption of these burgeoning technologies to visitors.
The company's partner-focused exhibit on booth C6092 will feature a full multi-brand AGV/AMR fleet demo managed by the BlueBotics ANT server fleet management software. In addition to this live example of vehicle interoperability, the stand will include six vehicle-brand kiosks staffed by BlueBotics's AGV partners and associated materials.
In addition to this info-packed stand experience, senior BlueBotics staff will host a uniquely educational seminar in which they will share industry insights from the company's recent global AGV/AMR usage survey.
"BlueBotics research validates that the automated vehicle market is thriving, with many companies planning both to adopt AGVs or AMRs and then grow these fleets in the coming years," said BlueBotics CEO Dr. Nicola Tomatis. "The visitors attending our seminar will learn more about how the AGV market is advancing, what vehicle types companies are buying, how users integrate them on-site, ROI calculations, and much more. Plus, attendees can then visit our stand to explore the primary autonomous navigation technology that is driving this growth with our ANT server fleet demo."
Live interoperable fleet demo
On the BlueBotics stand (C6092), the team will host a live multi-brand AGV/AMR fleet demonstration. This will feature six separate brands of vehicle - ranging from a full-size counterbalanced forklift AGV to a small turn-on-the-spot AMR and a floor cleaning robot - all of which will run in one connected fleet, managed by BlueBotics' ANT server fleet management software. Participating brands include AND&OR, Bastian Solutions, Cleanfix, FlexQube, Kivnon, and Oceaneering Mobile Robotics.
Global AGV/AMR insights
Meanwhile, in Theatre C on Wednesday, March 13, BlueBotics CEO Nicola Tomatis will join VP of Marketing Matt Wade to guide visitors through the evolving global usage of automated vehicles by digging into the findings from the company's first ever AGV/AMR usage survey.
These findings will cover a wide range of topics, including how AGV/AMR fleets are evolving in different regions, which vehicle types are most popular, user fears when adopting this technology, and how firms measure the success of their mobile robotics investments.
MODEX 2024 runs from March 11 to 14 at the Georgia World Congress Center, Atlanta. Visit BlueBotics on stand C6092.

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.
