Summary
Mobile robotic automation is one of the fastest growing international markets. Applications are spread across a range of verticals including logistics, industrial, agricultural and maintenance industries, driven by the need to reduce costs for European providers to compete with alternatives in lower labour-cost areas.
Furthermore, with the digital transformation of the European economy while the effective workforce is aging and shrinking , there is a significant drive to increase productivity and quality of highly repetitive low-skilled jobs by robotics. The major challenge that impedes growth of the mobile robotics market is the ability to navigate around unmapped territory . Additional factors are high initial cost and public acceptance.
Safe Perception And Navigation for Autonomous Robots proposes a single module for safe and accurate navigation disrupting the mobile robotics market. SPANAR increases the mobile robots utilization potential at a lower cost than existing solution, whilst allowing for increased safety. Its unique combination of sensors and software opens up new markets, allowing for mobile robots in highly dynamic environments, in all-weather conditions, and with combined in- and outdoor functionality. To penetrate global markets, the module is sold to OEMs and tier 1 suppliers of mobile robotics through online sales and distribution. Manufacturing is done inhouse and through trustworthy partners capable of mass-production.
Avular will investigate four sub-markets in this feasibility study: warehousing automation, last-mile delivery, inspection & maintenance, and agricultural robotics.
