Relying on the human eye to perform visual inspections can be costly, slow, and inaccurate. This quality control method has the risk of product recalls and unhappy customers. Blue Onyx Systems can locate the best spectral sensitivity for your product to deploy machine vision that creates the most robust and reliable system possible.
Robot guidance systems play a crucial role in warehouse operations, enhancing different jobs in managing inventory, picking, packing, and shipping.
Guidance systems rely on numerous technologies to navigate and perform tasks effectively to help the warehouse run as efficiently as possible. Some of those technologies are:
-
Indoor Positioning Systems (IPS)
-
Lidar (Light Detection and Ranging)
-
AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles)
-
AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots)
-
Picking Robots
-
Sorting Systems
-
WMS (Warehouse Management System) Software
-
IoT (Internet of Things)
-
Collaborative Robots (Cobots)
-
Safety Systems
-
Machine Learning and AI
-
Barcode and RFID
-
Real-time Analytics and Reporting
-
As advancements in AI and robotics grow, they will bring about even more complex and intuitive guidance systems
A vision-guided robot (VGR) system is a robot fitted with one or more cameras that are used as sensors to provide robots the ability to see and make informed decisions based on visual data.
Common applications include:
-
Pick and Place Operations: the robot can identify and pick up objects and is often used in manufacturing and assembly lines.
-
Quality Inspections: the robot can inspect products for visual defects to ensure a certain level of quality is maintained.
-
Bin Picking: the robot can identify and pick items from a bin even when filled with a random mixture of items with varying sizes, shapes and weights.
-
Sorting Applications: the robot can identify parts or products and group them based on size or color.
-
Logistics and Warehousing: the robot can navigate warehouses, pick products, organize shelves all based on visual input.
Every day at Amazon fulfillment centers, more than half a million robots assist with stocking inventory, filling orders, and sorting packages for delivery.
