Advances in Robots to See & Interpret within Warehouse Environments

Computation is the largest hurdle. 360-degree sensor data that is granular enough to detect small obstacles in the environment is very large. For Stretch to have a real time reaction, that data has to be processed at a very high rate.

Peak Season is the Lie Detector for Warehouse Robotics

Peak season pushes the limits of your building, but when done right, robots work quickly and continuously, smoothing out material flow. This results in better operations and increases warehouse output. This is the real value of robotic automation.

The Human + Robot Workforce: How Collaborative Robotics Are Solving the Labor Crisis

Collaborative robotics like person-to-goods or 'pick assist' AMRs are intelligently designed to work with people, not replace them. Adoption of AMRs for automated order fulfillment is turning this challenge into a competitive advantage.

Hybrid AMRs are a Game-Changer

They can operate seamlessly in unstructured environments and adapt to changing floor conditions. At particular points where highest precision is required, we revert to a QR code location.

What is the role of cameras in pick and place robots?

Pick and place robots perform repetitive handling tasks with speed and consistency, making them invaluable across industries. These robots depend heavily on the right camera setup. Get insights about the challenges faced by cameras, use cases, and their biggest benefits.

System lets robots identify an object's properties through handling

With a novel simulation method, robots can guess the weight, softness, and other physical properties of an object just by picking it up.

Fizyr, Cognibotics and Zivid Deliver World's Fastest Automated Bin Picking Solution

The Zivid 2+R-series camera captures true-to-reality point clouds, even when presented with shiny and transparent objects, in under 150 milliseconds ensuring it does not limit the cycle time of the Cognibotics HKM1800

Personalized Robot Assistance with TidyBot

Jeannette and her team task the robot with tidying up a room: pick up all objects off the floor and put each object where it belongs. One of the key challenges when performing this task is determining the correct receptacle for each object.

ZF Pick and place

ZF, a global technology company from Germany, uses the MIRAI AI-vision software to automate a challenging pick-and-place task.

Unlocking Efficiency: The Role of AI in Optimizing Pick & Place Robotics

By processing vast amounts of data in real time, AI-driven robots can make intelligent decisions, optimize operations, and continuously improve over time. This advancement is redefining the way warehouses operate, offering enhanced productivity and reliability.

Solving the logistics labor puzzle: Choreographing a Tango of Robots and Human Labor in Warehouse Operations

The most pressing dilemma for the logistics industry is perhaps maximizing output levels that match consumer needs while not having enough employees taking up physically demanding tasks like parcel picking and sorting.

Five challenging applications automated with AI-powered robots

Robots equipped with AI vision systems, such as MIRAI, can perceive and adapt to their surroundings. This allows them to handle variance while performing complex tasks, making it possible to automate operations otherwise considered too complex to solve.

Anyware Robotics Emerges from Stealth Mode to Reveal Its Pixmo Robots for Container and Truck Unloading

The Versatile Robots Unload Boxes More Safely, Cost-Effectively, Reliably, and Quickly than Manual Unloading Practices

Dexterity AI and FedEx Unveil First-of-its-Kind Robotics Trailer Loading Technology

Dexterity AI focuses on the complexity of truck loading by giving mobile robots a suite of intelligence ranging from the ability to see, touch, think, and move quickly to pack trailers with stable, dense walls of randomized boxes.

Goods-to-Person Picking Systems

Imagine a warehouse where every item you need is just a few clicks away. That is the beauty of Goods-to-Person Picking Systems (G2P or GTP). These innovative automated systems are revolutionizing the world of order fulfillment

Nion: Next-level time-of-flight

Nion: Next-level time-of-flight

The new Nion 3D camera advances Time-of-Flight (ToF) technology with exceptional resolution, speed, and industrial robustness. Designed for demanding applications such as logistics, warehousing, industrial automation, and robotics, Nion delivers high-resolution depth data with real-time performance for faster, safer, and more flexible operations. At its core is the 1.2-megapixel Time-of-Flight sensor AF0130 from onsemi's Hyperlux ID family, offering up to four times the resolution of conventional VGA-based ToF cameras and significantly higher data density. Active 940-nm laser illumination ensures accurate and stable measurements in low-light conditions, artificial lighting, and even direct sunlight. With an IP67-rated housing, Nion is built for reliable operation in dusty, wet, and thermally challenging industrial environments. A user-friendly API with IDS peak support and compliance with the GigE Vision standard enable fast integration and flexible deployment in high-resolution 3D applications. The Nion 3D camera is now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems.
