VisionNav at LTT 2021: Driverless Industrial Vehicles with Latest Vision Technology Renovating Factory Intralogistics
AICHI, Japan, March 10, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Behind the innovative products and solutions VisionNav showcased at Logis-Tech 
Tokyo 2021 (LTT 2021) is a driverless story of how the company helps its 
customers quickly upgrade intralogistics not even to the COVID pandemic.

"Even the pandemic has been going on for a year, it's still quite difficult for 
manufacturers to adjust its internal logistics strategy within such a short 
amount of time." Said Kiki Ren, Japan sales director of VisionNav, "To make 
intralogistics cost-efficient and labor-saving, without changing the existing 
processes, that is the core value of VisionNav Robotics."

During the LTT, VisionNav and its partners showed off the unmanned 
intralogistics solution: AGFs (Automated Guided Forklifts), AMRs (Autonomous 
Mobile Vehicles), and RCS system (Robot Control System). The solution is 
suitable for automated materials handling and storage scenarios in 
manufacturing and logistic enterprises, mainly for three different operations:

1.  Multi-Layer racks/goods stacking 

Unmanned stacking is one of the most distinct applications from VisionNav for 
global market. Based on visual recognition and servo control technology, 
VisionNav's AGF can stack more than 5 layers of racks or goods, which was one 
of the most difficult operations for driverless forklifts to perform, helping 
customers reduce heavy physical labors.

2.  Operation with Narrow Aisle

The Slim Series AGFs also attracted huge attention at this event. By removing 
the manual driving position, slim forklift can run within 2.0m narrow aisle for 
storage operations, helping companies to improve storage capacity by at least 
30%. 

3.  "Goods to person" horizontal transportation

The perfect choice for "goods to person" operation must be AMR robots. 
VisionNav AMRs can reach ±10mm operation accuracy without auxiliary marks, and 
its powerful system can schedule over 130 robots at the same time and dock with 
more than 5000 different devices.

VisionNav (www.visionnav.com) was founded in 2016 by a PhD team from The CHUK 
and The University of Tokyo, and it's committed to applying artificial 
intelligence (AI), environmental perception, deep learning and servo control 
technologies to driverless industrial vehicles, helping companies to realize 
"machine replacing human" and improve logistics efficiency, storage capacity 
and digital management. Now the company has completed its B round of 100 
million Yuan by Lenovo Capital in 2020.
