…adapt to changing circumstances on the fly. Autonomous robot swarms can share the load As AMR technology advances further, we expect even more exciting developments in this field, with autonomous robots becoming more intelligent and versatile than ever before. One such development is swarm autonomy. Picture a swarm of bees flying together in perfect formation, each bee adjusting its flight pattern in real-time to maintain the optimal position. In a warehouse setting, swarm autonomy requires a wireless communications network with real-time capability. Using a combination of sensors and artificial intelligence or machine learning algorithms, the AMRs can communicate with one…

…Me, IAM Robotics has combined the flexibility of the swarm model with some linear control benefits of the follow-me model, claimed Link. He noted that the company was deliberate about creating a software platform that treats humans and robots as separate agents working in their own directed workflows. Unlike AMR systems where the human must follow the robot to complete picks, IAM designed Meet Me to give the worker more agency, he said, highlighting that the worker has an attached tablet on their wrist and does not rely on one placed on the robot. Link said the Lumabot is capable…
