…to install necessary power outlets and network cabling. Once infrastructure was in place, HMS returned to install and configure the Anybus Wireless products on each AGV before verifying that the installation worked as planned. “A key factor for us was that HMS were on hand to design and install the wireless infrastructure. That was important for us,” Lichan said. “We wanted to have wireless experts onsite to ensure that everything went smoothly. We’re not wireless experts, HMS are. We make cars, which you probably already knew.” Anybus access points, Bolt II units operate on 5 GHz band The wireless infrastructure…

…part of the broader digital transformation ecosystem, requiring IT infrastructure, employee buy-in, connectivity, workflows, safety standards, and operational processes for the robots and the data they generate and rely on. With over 1,500 deployments, the company’s Spot quadruped robot is already teaching hundreds of companies how to work alongside autonomous mobile robots. Boston Dynamics said it believes humanoid robots will be most effective if they are deployed with in-depth digital twin facility models and lots of data about how they operate. Boston Dynamics also recently launched its Orbit fleet management software, which provides a centralized platform to manage entire robot…

…won’t bump into people or objects, and requires no infrastructure changes. When it’s time for cycle counting, it uses drone technology attached to the ground robot with a tether - used to power the drone and for real-time data transfer. The drone ascends vertically and begins scanning products as the Captis base navigates its way down narrow corridors. The system can capture data with 99.9% accuracy autonomously for up to five hours per mission, according to Cypher. That data is automatically integrated with existing warehouse management system (WMS), warehouse control system (WCS) and warehouse execution system (WES) software. Captis eliminates…
