Stockbot

StockBot is an autonomous platform that takes daily inventory in retail stores and warehouses without supervision. The robot combines RFID technology, vision cameras and autonomous navigation to speed up stocktaking and overcome conventional handheld readers. StockBot doesn't need any modification of the environment and only requires a first initial set-up. After that, it automatically adapts to any spatial change.

Overview

StockBot doesn't need any modification of the environment and only requires a first initial set-up. After that, it automatically adapts to any spatial change.

StockBot detects all items and their spatial location, reflecting them in a 3D map, and also provides visual information for further analysis. The platform provides access to applications such as out-of-stock situations and misplacements detection, planogram and price tag checking while enhancing data-driven decisions. 

Autonomous store inventory

  • Optimization of inventory management 
  • Automatic in-store item localization (0.5m accuracy)
  • Increase sales by reducing OOS 
  • Misplacement detection 
  • Data-driven decisions

Simple deployment

  • Easy set-up: create a map moving the robot around 
  • Define regions in which to perform the inventory
  • Schedule inventories in any region
  • Stockbot moves autonomously detecting all items
  • Results easy to integrate into any platform
  • API for remote functionality control
