244: Automate LIVE 2025: Warehousing Innovations, AI at the Edge, and Interoperability

ManufacturingAI and vision systems

AI and vision systems are used to enable robotic systems to handle random skew palletization, allowing them to palletize mixed-size boxes that were previously difficult to automate.

“up until recently, with the advances in AI and advances in vision system, this was not something that was easily done. And now there's a whole mess of different robotic systems and vision systems and different ways to tackle this. And AI has become a very big part of it too, to learn how in terms of the palatization and the depalatization.”

Running the companyArduino Portenta and Wisgate routers70% reduction in timeline

Arduino hardware is used to migrate a textile manufacturer's legacy control systems to an open ecosystem, enabling modernization at scale and shifting the ROI for the user.

“we've seen, on average, for rollouts on projects, a 70% reduction in timeline. I mean, when you kick off a project, It's going to be a 6 month project, all of a sudden you guys are done in a month and a half, that's a substantial savings internally.”
