Onward Robotics Unveils Revolutionary Meet Meâ„¢ Solution for Automated Order Fulfillment With Live Demonstrations at MODEX 2024

Award-Winning Tech Startup Showcases Innovative Automation Technology at World's Largest Manufacturing and Supply Chain Trade Event

Onward Robotics, the pioneering mobile robotics and software company, today announced the showcase of its Meet Meâ„¢ automation solution at MODEX, the supply chain industry's largest trade show. The company is demonstrating how its revolutionary technology coordinates humans and robots as a cohesive system, enabling warehousing, logistics, and e-commerce operations to increase order fulfillment productivity, mitigate operational risk, and scale without adding headcount.


This year at MODEX in booth #C6685, attendees will see firsthand how Onward Robotics' innovative Pyxis™ technology optimizes the order-picking process by orchestrating the work of Lumabot™️ autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and human pickers as independent workflows. The company's proprietary algorithm directs workers via a wearable device to meet Lumabot AMRs at the next best picking location, reducing non-productive movement and improving productivity in the fulfillment process. Lumabot AMRs feature intuitive and patent-pending pick-to-light shelving that minimizes human error while improving picking accuracy and speed.

"Across the supply chain, warehouses, distributors, logistics providers, and e-commerce operations are under increased pressure to do more with less," said Onward Robotics CEO Lance VandenBrook. "It's been incredible to see the market's response to our new solution, and we're excited to demonstrate at MODEX how Onward Robotics is helping to move the global supply chain forward."

Onward Robotics has experienced strong market demand since the launch of its Meet Me automation solution in 2023. In the last year, the company also announced a major corporate rebrand, expanded its team of supply chain and robotics experts, and was named Top Tech Startup driving innovation in the supply chain and logistics industry.

At MODEX 2024, attendees will be able to meet with Onward Robotics' team of supply chain, robotics, and automation experts to discuss how the company's order fulfillment solution can optimize their processes, boost productivity, and help achieve their goals.

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

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.
