The software not only enables comprehensive fleet management of an entire AMR system, but it also regulates all fleet traffic and is able to automatically reschedule
and redirect in the event of obstacles. (Image: KUKA)
Also on the robot side, additional
software comes into play - an operating
system - that is necessary for the vehicle's
own navigation and for it to communicate
with the fleet management
software. The robot will also have software
for safety and basic driving control.
Robotic vision systems work in tandem
with this software that processes a camera
image, then directs the action of the
robot based on that visual information.
While advanced vision systems give
AMRs the power of " sight " so to speak,
AI allows them to identify objects and
optimizes how they navigate on a factory
floor. Using collected data and AI, current
AMR fleet management software
more effectively controls the flow of
materials within a facility. Such capability
provides these facilities with a viable
alternative to traditional material handling,
i.e. forklifts, and opens the door
to applying AMRs to a range of more
challenging applications.
