To celebrate National Forklift Safety Day 2021, we’re focusing on automated forklift systems as a way to reduce lift truck related injuries and fatalities. In this article we’ll cover why driverless forklifts are safer than manual forklifts, and break down predictions for their adoption.
As a manufacturer of automated vehicles, your customers place a lot of trust in you. Not only to make a reliable, robust vehicle, but also keep their staff and stock safe. So how can you ensure your AGV’s safety before it arrives on-site?
Autonomous navigation can be confusing. Here we dispel the most common myths about BlueBotics’ ANT navigation technology, starting with that SLAM question…
BlueBotics has been ranked one of the top three vendors of industrial robotics for material handling globally in the latest competitive ranking by ABI Research.
Supply Chain Day showcases logistics by showing the public what goes on behind the scenes of the global supply chain.
Global autonomous navigation leader BlueBotics is heading to this year’s ProMATDX digital event to educate both developers and potential buyers of automated vehicles and mobile robots on the impact their navigation technology choices can have – on vehicle robustness, accuracy, speed of installation and fleet use.
Following the COVID-19 pandemic, we are all more aware of the potential for the spread of infection. UVC light offers a way to rapidly disinfect surfaces and destroy up to 99.99% of viruses, including coronaviruses.
BlueBotics has announced its Autonomous Navigation Technology (ANT) is now estimated to have driven automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) over 10 million kilometers, in applications ranging from warehousing and manufacturing to commercial cleaning services, UVC disinfection and more.
In part one of this guide, we discussed AGV navigation methods that follow physical lines or tags. Here in part 2 we explore guidance technologies that follow virtual paths instead.
When developing or upgrading an automated guided vehicle (AGV) or mobile robot, investing in the right autonomous navigation technology is key. In this exclusive two-part guide we explore the different AGV navigation methods available, starting here with physical line following technologies.
