For London-based Dexory, traditional warehouse bots weren’t solving one of the biggest problems in inventory management — they believe the warehouse of the future must be tech-enabled in order to be automated, connected, and digital.
That’s because manual shelf counting is slow and tedious, and the information quickly becomes outdated. The solution is to provide access to real-time data, and so the company has explored ways to utilize digital twins to allow its bot to create 3D scans of the data in front of it.
This is the capability of DexoryView, the company’s AI-driven robot that they say can cover 15,000 locations with 99.9% accuracy in just one hour.
DexoryView does so by autonomously traveling a warehouse and scanning inventory, continually feeding data into the software system in order to populate the digital twin. Dexory says its analytics platform can then offer users the right information to identify productivity killers, such as bottlenecks.
But perhaps most exciting of all is the scale at which DexoryView can operate: the robot is equipped with its own extendable tower that can be deployed to the height of the highest racks and utilize cameras and lidar to access the information it needs. Dexory hopes it offers an alternative solution to something like AS/RS but without any requirements to modify the warehouse or be monitored by staff.
It was recently revealed that Dexory has undergone a new funding round, yielding $19 million in investments, and has plans to bring DexoryView to the North American market, coming soon to a warehouse near you.
