Rise of the Robots: Driving Safety & Adoption with Multiagent Orchestration
Warehouses are adopting automation at an unprecedented pace as the applications for mobile robots increase and evolve. The problem is not that there aren't enough robots to take over the myriad functions needed on the floor, it's getting them all to work together as part of a single system.
In this session, we will explore the lessons learned over the last five years of designing and implementing automation solutions in warehouse environments, including:
- Unexpected constraints due to: a lack of certification, limited integration with existing systems, or the absence of a software stack to manage and optimize automation solutions
- Recent progress in drone-based regulations, hardware, software and affordability that’s eliminating challenges like indoor navigation and GPS limitations
- How to decide between single robot/single task deployments and real-time multiagent orchestration.
