AR-M / Autonomous Mobile Platform

Move what the facility needs next.

AR-M is designed for autonomous material movement through factories, warehouses and large operational facilities. Instead of requiring fixed rails or conveyors, the platform plans routes through mapped environments and adapts to changing operational conditions.

Payload
500 kg
Speed
2.2 m/s
Runtime
12 h
Docking
±8 mm

Representative engineering targets. Final configuration depends on system and deployment.

01 / Purpose
Internal logistics without fixed paths

Material flow should not depend on fixed paths.

Factories change. Production layouts move. Priorities shift. Queues appear. A mobile robotic system should operate inside that reality rather than assuming the facility remains permanently fixed. AR-M treats logistics as a continuously updated routing problem.

01 Warehouse transport
02 Production logistics
03 Line replenishment
04 Internal delivery across changing routes
02 / Platform architecture
Chassis / drive / perception / docking

A mobile base built around payload, routes and uptime.

Base

Chassis

Structural deck and load interface for internal material movement.

Drive

Motion

Drive modules support repeatable routes, turns and controlled stopping.

Energy

Battery

Runtime and charging strategy are treated as fleet constraints.

Payload

Deck

Configurable payload interface for carts, carriers and handoff geometry.

LiDAR

Perimeter

Spatial sensing supports localization, obstacle handling and safe zones.

Vision

Scene input

Vision inputs help read markers, docks, zones and task context.

Compute

Onboard control

Local planning and safety decisions continue near the machine.

Dock

Charging

Automatic docking keeps charge and task allocation in the same loop.

04 / Fleet intelligence
Task allocation / traffic / charge

One vehicle moves. The fleet coordinates.

Multiple AR-M units are coordinated through task allocation, traffic management, congestion avoidance and charging logic. The fleet planner decides which unit moves next, where it travels and when it returns to charge.

05 / Human shared space
People / zones / dynamic obstacles

Movement through facilities people still use.

AR-M operation is shaped by human detection, restricted areas, dynamic obstacles, crossings and speed zones. The robot must share space with forklifts, operators, staging zones and temporary layout changes.

01 Human detection and proximity zones
02 Dynamic obstacle handling
03 Restricted areas and crossings
04 Safe stop and route release
06 / Docking and charging
Handoff / recharge / uptime

Finish the task. Find the dock.

D01

Auto-docking

Positioning and approach logic align the robot with charging or handoff points.

D02

Charging

Charging windows are coordinated with task demand and fleet state.

D03

Pickup

Payload pickup depends on deck geometry, route state and facility process.

D04

Handoff

Arrival is verified against the receiving area, not only a map coordinate.

07 / Integration
Facility systems / orchestration

Connected to the work system.

AR-M interfaces are considered around WMS, MES, ERP, facility systems and fleet orchestration. Integration depends on the deployment architecture and is defined with the operating team.

01 WMS task source
02 MES production state
03 ERP material context
04 Facility and fleet orchestration
08 / Applications
Transport / replenishment / delivery

Built for material flow inside working sites.

A01

Warehouse transport

Movement between staging, storage, picking and dispatch zones.

A02

Line replenishment

Parts and material delivery to production points as demand changes.

A03

Facility transport

Internal movement across campuses, workshops and industrial floors.

A04

Internal delivery

Repeatable delivery loops with dynamic route and charge coordination.

09 / Deployment

Discuss AR-M deployment.

AR-M deployment starts with material flow: payloads, pickup points, route width, traffic, dock positions, charging windows and the systems that create transport demand.
