Osaro, a provider of AI-driven robotics for e-commerce applications, has announced a partnership with software company SVT Robotics to accelerate the integration of pick-and-place robotics systems for e-commerce and logistics businesses.
SVT Robotics has developed what it calls the Softbot Platform, which it claims can enable companies to integrate and deploy robots, automation and IoT devices within days.
As part of the two companies’ agreement, SVT Robotics has joined Osaro’s partner program, which offers access to support services for businesses’ fulfilment operations.
What’s more, Osaro claims to offer members opportunities for collaborating with other autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS) vendors, integrators, distributors, third-party logistics companies and consultants to support the development of new cross-sector solutions.
“Even technically savvy companies struggle to integrate disparate software and hardware solutions across their facility or supply chain, which is why SVT’s solution-agnostic platform for robotics integration is so valuable for a fast and smooth deployment,” said Derik Pridmore, CEO of Osaro.
“Speed is key in today’s competitive e-commerce marketplace,” said A.K. Schultz, CEO of SVT Robotics.
“Our partnership with Osaro means their customers can deploy Osaro robots in a short amount of time without lengthy code development to begin optimising productivity much more quickly.
“Prospective customers can also engage with an Osaro pick-and-place robot cell at our Innovation Lab in Norfolk, Virginia, where they can see a live demo and learn more about the possibilities for advanced e-commerce automation.”
Members of the partner program can utilise the company’s pick-and-place vision software, which the pair claims can support commercial expansion, the building of new revenue streams and the exploration of new e-commerce solutions.
