Third Wave Automation

"What would you do....?" It's a common challenge we hear about and with traditional systems, it can result in costing more time and money. "What would you do if your autonomous system was given a task by your #WMS to move a pallet, from one location to another location...but that location was full?" Thanks to the Shared Autonomy Platform and Armada Fleet Management System, our solution offers four modes of operation. ? Fully Autonomous ? Remote Operation ? Remote Assistance ? Manual Operation For the challenge above, Remote Assistance is the right solve. → Watch the video below and hear directly from Matt Willis (Head of Product) as he explains the difference between traditional systems and the value Remote Assistance from #ArmadaFMS brings. ----------------------------------------- Want to learn more without a sales pitch? 1.

"We've taken #LiDAR SLAM to the next level" For TWA Reach autonomous forklifts, being able to "see" is key to safe and efficient operation. Using automotive-grade 3D LiDAR enabled vision, they can even see around the corner and other areas that a manual operator cannot. ? LiDAR (light detection and ranging) ? SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) While other solutions may use 2D, the benefit of 3D is that our TWA Reach uses all 128 planes, maximizing millions of data points, and allowing for seamless navigation in dynamic environments. → Hear how our Director of Sales Nic Temple highlights the benefits of not just navigation, but also reduced costs. ----------------------------------------- Want to learn more without a sales pitch? 1.

"What if continuous improvement was.... constant?" Our CEO & CoFounder Arshan Poursohi recently joined Industry40tv host Kudzai Manditereza for a discussion around shared autonomy and all things Third Wave Automation. With the Shared Autonomy Platform, "questions" posed by the autonomous forklifts and "answers" provided by the remote operator are recorded and fed back to train in a loop. (Watch the video below). Their discussion covered a variety of topics: ? Shared Autonomy ? Customer Deployment ? Robots-as-a-Service (RaaS) ? AI/Machine Learning/Model Training ? Continuous Improvement → Check out the full episode: - YouTube: https://lnkd.in/dyK44x5h - Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3748AXf - Apple: https://apple.co/3lY5vhl ----------------------------------------- Want to learn more without a sales pitch? 1.

"The?thing?that?I?have?learned?is?that?not?all?deployments?are?going?to?be?successful but?you?can?definitely?and?certainly?make?them?safe" What are some considerations you should think about when deploying autonomous trucks? That was the discussion between our Product Safety Officer Vinay Balan and host of The New Warehouse podcast Kevin Lawton, CLTD. If you were not able to attend our last audio event to hear the discussion, no worries. → The link to hear the full conversation is in the comments below. We'll be announcing our next event in the coming weeks and want to thank everyone who joined us for the first two, helping to drive the conversation! ----------------------------------------- Want to learn more without a sales pitch? 1.

When our CEO Arshan Poursohi joined Greg Toroosian on his Machine Minds podcast, a discussion about some of the key benefits of #sharedautonomy came up.

"Okay, let's talk fleet management" When it comes to the Shared Autonomy Platform and the ability for a remote operator to manage a fleet of autonomous #TWAReach forklifts, ArmadaFMS is there to make sure things run smoothly. Traditional autonomy systems require manual intervention to handle exceptions. → Our system assumes the system will encounter errors and puts an operator in charge of remotely addressing them (this takes recovery time from hours in some cases, to seconds). ? An operator resolves an assist via the assist panel ? An operator resolves an assist via the quick view panel ? An operator enters RC to place a pallet - returns the truck to autonomy Hear directly from our Head of Product Matt Willis as he explains how #ArmadaFMS gives your remote operator visibility of the entire warehouse and fleet of autonomous forklifts. → Watch the video below ----------------------------------------- Want to learn more without a sales pitch? 1.

"It's happening tomorrow!" The discussion continues with our second Linkedin Audio Event - "What safety considerations should you consider when deploying autonomous trucks?" with our Product Safety Officer Vinay Balan and Kevin Lawton, CLTD of The New Warehouse hosting. At our first event, questions provided by attendees in the warehousing space revealed that there are similar concerns/challenges when it comes to safety with autonomous solutions. → We're looking to have a conversation, not deliver a presentation This event will be 25 mins, max. We encourage questions around the topic! Event Details Date: Thursday, October 10th Time: 9am PST / 12pm EST → Link to attend: https://lnkd.in/g2DyWZuX ----------------------------------------- Want to learn more without a sales pitch? 1.

"Constant continuous improvement without the downtime." How does the Shared Autonomy Platform offer flexibility for our customers? Our system is designed to "ask for help" from the remote operator, which allows the operator to take corrective action without ever stepping onto the warehouse floor and into harm's way. The operator becomes the "teacher" for the fleet of autonomous reach forklifts to learn from, with all actions taken by the operator logged for future "study lessons." It's a collaborative loop that feeds into continuous improvement and offers the flexibility to teach/adapt when and as often as necessary. That's the power of the Shared Autonomy Platform. → Hear what our Director of Sales Nic Temple had to say about why having a "human in the loop" offers real benefits to customer operations. ---------------------------- Need help or want to learn more without a sales pitch? 1.

BONUS CONTENT - "Was the safety audio event last week recorded?" Yes, yes it was. If you were unable to attend last Thursday's audio event with our Product Safety Officer Vinay Balan and host Kevin Lawton, CLTD, the event was recorded and now available on The New Warehouse podcast site (link below). It was an "Ask Me Anything" format around the topic: Safety is Journey, Not a Destination. ? This was an engaging discussion with several questions from attendees that really drove the conversation. The conversation continues next Thursday at 9am PST / 12pm EST as Vinay and Kevin will dive into safety considerations around deploying autonomous forklifts. → We're looking to have a conversation, not deliver a presentation We encourage questions around the topic - throughout the entire event - so come ready to be a part of the conversation! → Listen to it here: https://lnkd.in/g5GsqA8x → Link to attend next Thursday's audio event: https://lnkd.in/gaVuewZy ----------------------------------------- Want to learn more without a sales pitch? 1.
