St-Sulpice, Switzerland: At this year's Automate show, AGV/AMR navigation leader BlueBotics will highlight how its ANT server management software enables the creation of multi-brand fleets. Its team will also join forces with partner Oceaneering Mobile Robotics to host a seminar dedicated to building the business case for automated vehicle technology.


"As the AGV market grows and continues to mature, more businesses are realizing the need for scalable custom fleets, which can incorporate different types and even brands of vehicle," said BlueBotics CEO Nicolas Tomatis. "Our team will be happy to explain to Automate's visitors how the ANT navigation platform - in particular, our ANT server software - can enable that."

Building the business case for mobile robotics

Meanwhile, at the Automate Automation Theater, BlueBotics' Matt Wade will team up with Matt Slack of Oceaneering Mobile Robotics to help visitors understand the key assessments involved in calculating the business case for AGVs and AMRs. This 'don't miss' session will span manufacturing and intralogistics, featuring two detailed case studies from the automotive sector.

"Today the mobile robotics market is thriving due to hiring and retention challenges, and the need to build more productive, competitive, and resilient businesses. However, determining the value that mobile robotics can bring to your specific operation, and making a solid business case for this technology, can be a challenge," said Dr. Tomatis. "In our seminar, Matt from Oceaneering will help walk visitors through the process. We'll dive deep into the key factors that impact ROI and then supplement these learnings with in-depth case studies that give visitors real-world proof points from the U.S. manufacturing sector."

Automate 23 runs from May 22 to 25, 2023 at the Huntington Place Convention Center, Detroit, Michigan, USA
