“Quanergy’s M1 LiDAR sensors are key to achieving our objective
of democratizing the adoption of robots in the material handling
space,” said Zachary Dydek, Chief Technology Officer at Vecna
Robotics. “The cost-effective, industrial-grade sensors enable our
robots to navigate quickly while co-working with humans using
seamless touch-and-go automation, helping our customers overcome
labor shortages and create a safer, more efficient warehouse.”
Vecna CPJ leverages Quanergy’s M1 LiDAR sensors for natural
feature navigation to help bring automation to long-ignored
material handling workflows like pallet and tote consolidation,
pick-to-packout, and QA/QC/rework. LiDAR uses time-of-flight
sensing to generate rich point cloud data about the surrounding
area, allowing the co-bot to navigate the warehouse autonomously
abandoning the need for expensive and inflexible beacons.
The use of LiDAR enables the co-bot to collaborate with human
partners. For example, the vehicle navigates the warehouse
independently, reducing the labor burden while increasing
efficiency, uptime and safety.
M1 LiDAR sensors from Quanergy provide best-in-class measurement
accuracy, a 360° field of view, and industry leading sensing range.
In addition, M1 LiDAR sensors deliver reliable performance even in
harsh industrial environments independent of lighting
conditions.
“LiDAR is driving the future of robotics, and we’re excited to
be the ‘eyes’ of co-bots like Vecna’s autonomous co-bot pallet
jack,” said Enzo Signore, Chief Marketing Officer at Quanergy.
“Where LiDAR was once expensive and unattainable for many, we’re
now bringing this technology to the masses with cost-effective
solutions that unlock the power of LiDAR and democratize the
adoption of these robots.”
