OTTO Motors by Rockwell Automation will create
next-generation autonomous mobile robots enhanced with NVIDIA
technologies
BRUSSELS, June 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Rockwell Automation,
Inc., the world's largest company dedicated to industrial
automation and digital transformation, today announces further
collaborations with NVIDIA to supercharge the development of
safer and smarter industrial AI mobile robots.
Earlier this year, Rockwell announced its ongoing work with
NVIDIA to increase the scale and scope of AI in manufacturing. The
collaboration is now expanding to involve robotics, helping drive
the use of AI in autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) to improve
performance and efficiency. Rockwell brings AMRs and production
automation applications to industrial customers who are looking for
increased efficiencies in their factories. This will help unlock
unrealized potential in this space via the integration of the
NVIDIA Isaac robotics platform.
"We're invigorated by this continued collaboration with NVIDIA,"
said Ryan Gariepy, CTO, OTTO Motors by Rockwell Automation. "Rockwell's
industrial AI expertise, combined with NVIDIA AI and robotics
technologies, is going to help drive an exciting new generation of
autonomous mobile robots."
Rockwell also continues its work to integrate NVIDIA Omniverse
Cloud application programming interfaces (APIs) with its Emulate3D
software, bringing users data interoperability, live collaboration,
and photo-realistic graphics rendering for designing, building, and
operating industrial-scale digital twins of production systems.
According to the recently released "State of Smart Manufacturing
Report," AI ranks as the top feature manufacturers believe will
drive the biggest business outcomes. In fact, 83 percent of
manufacturers expect to use generative AI in their operations in
2024. As part of this collaboration, the Rockwell Automation
PartnerNetwork™ now includes NVIDIA, giving Rockwell customers more
applications to help make their operations more resilient, agile,
and sustainable.
