As the adoption of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) rapidly accelerates across industries, companies are grappling with the complexities of managing large, distributed fleets gathering vast amounts of data. InOrbit Inc., a leading provider of robot operations (RobOps) systems, aims to address this challenge with the introduction of InOrbit RobOps Copilot at Automate 2024.

This groundbreaking new product harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to turn robot operations data into actionable insights for fleet optimization. By leveraging the latest large language models (LLMs), RobOps Copilot enables users to ask questions in their preferred languages, get detailed explanations, refine their analyses, and arrive at key optimization decisions.

"While there's a lot of hype about AI and robotics, we're actually putting the latest developments in machine learning and LLMs to work for real people optimizing real robots," stated Florian Pestoni, co-founder and CEO of InOrbit. "RobOps Copilot gives the operations team in warehouses, manufacturing plants, or hospitals the power to understand and refine the behavior of their robots, making sense of vast amounts of data without needing a Ph.D. in robotics."

The intuitive interface of RobOps Copilot allows users to transition seamlessly between their preferred messaging platforms for casual queries and a fully integrated experience with chat-driven dashboard explorations. This flexibility empowers anyone, regardless of technical expertise, to gain actionable insights from their robot operations data.

Early adopters, such as Kärcher, a global leader in high-performance autonomous cleaning robots, have already experienced the benefits of RobOps Copilot. "The interface is super-intuitive, allowing our team to easily find the data insights needed to optimize our robots and drive value for our customers," said Felipe Garcia Lopez, manager of robotic systems and software at Kärcher.

InOrbit is continuously expanding the InOrbit Connect ecosystem to support integrations with warehouse management systems (WMS), AMRs from different vendors, and goods-to-person (G2P) workflows. One recent addition is support for a new automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS) developed by Instock, now in use at the InOrbit Robot Space in Silicon Valley and part of InOrbit's live demonstrations at Automate.

Alongside this product launch, InOrbit has joined the Open Source Robotics Alliance (OSRA) as a silver member, marking a milestone in its commitment to fostering collaboration and innovation within the robotics community. As part of the OSRA, InOrbit expects to contribute to shaping the future of robotics and exploring opportunities for advancing RobOps.

With RobOps Copilot, InOrbit is empowering businesses to unlock the full potential of their AMR fleets, driving efficiency, productivity, and ultimately, success in the rapidly evolving world of robot operations.
