The demand for Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) is constantly growing due to the massive automation of production processes, the introduction of e-commerce systems, as well as the need to optimize the manpower in production facilities.
Real-time data collection, predictive capability and event response are critical in AMR applications. AMR requires high-performance embedded computers with Artificial Intelligence to process data in a timely manner and perform complex sequential actions. Also, AMR requires multiple I/O interfaces to connect cameras, sensors, controller boards, displays and other end devices.
Ready-made solutions
Axiomtek has developed an ultra-compact control system named eBOX560-52R-FL. eBOX560-52R-FL is a powerful yet compact system that can be used as an AMR control core. The compact PC has an Intel Whiskey Lake ULT CPU and provides high performance even when processing multiple input and output data streams. The system has 2 GbE and 4 USB ports for connecting a variety of sensors and devices, as well as one 2.5” SSD drive bay for storing large amounts of data. An optional module can be installed to transmit data to the control room or other peripheral computers via a wireless Wi-Fi interface. Axiomtek also provides the ability to customize hardware and BIOS specifications, which allows customers to create unique automated mobile robots for various Industry 4.0 requirements.
