An AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) is an advanced robotic vehicle that can navigate and perform tasks independently in dynamic environments without relying on fixed paths or external guidance systems (like wires or magnetic tapes).
Key Features of AMRs:
1. Autonomous Navigation – Uses AI, sensors (LiDAR, cameras), and SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) to understand and adapt to surroundings in real time.
2. Dynamic Path Planning – Avoids obstacles, reroutes on the fly, and optimizes routes without human input.
3. Flexibility – Easily reprogrammable for new tasks or layouts (ideal for changing warehouse/factory setups).
4. Collaborative Operation – Works safely alongside humans (unlike traditional AGVs, which often require segregated paths).
Benefits of AMRs:
Scalability – Easy to deploy in new environments.
Efficiency – Optimizes workflows with real-time data.
Safety – Advanced collision avoidance.
