…on a robot's specific circumstances.” Interoperability and orchestration In addition to filling data gaps and providing data integrity, InOrbit said it supports mobile robot operators with advanced fleet management capabilities. Beyond just interoperability, the company now offers robot orchestration, which select InOrbit customers are already using. This includes enhanced navigation with heterogeneous multi-robot visualizations, defined single-occupancy areas used to trigger…

…the robotics sales pitch, but interoperability is key,” he said. “If diverse pieces of equipment from multiple vendors aren't talking to one another, it's a challenge that we can address. The open standard is a win-win for developers, OEMs, and deployers of robotics.” CoreAVI sets goals for Vulkan SC API CoreAVI developed the Vulkan SC application programming interface (API) in…

…take within the facility. 3. Interoperability, software advances support fleet management For individual robots, improvements in sensor technology and connectivity advances such as 5G will help feed data into AMRs’ planning algorithms and software. This data is critical when navigating around facilities, enabling the robots to see any object around it or from above it. With the help of AI,…

…factories,” Farid said. “As for interoperability and using human language to tell robots what to do, we're excited by the prospect, and a lot of people are working on these problems. We'll happily use such software as soon as it's ready, but if not, we'll build it ourselves.” Formic noted that its customers include Polar Manufacturing, a 105-year-old maker of…

…expertise are from Honeywell. AMR interoperability standard helps robots “deconflict” In May 2021, industry group MassRobotics released its first version of a robotics interoperability standard. While the standard is seen as helpful in allowing robots from different vendors to work together at the same site while avoiding issues like aisle congestion, the standard is not meant as an orchestration platform…
