INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Partners and Breega also participating.The startup has built an automated robot called the Skypods to optimize e-commerce warehouses
to pick up your next order.Exotec is selling a complete solution to replace part of your warehouse with a robot-managed area
in the coming months.Skypods are low-profile robots that can carry a standardized box and bring it back to a human operator
They can move up and down a rack and grab a box from the shelves.This is the most visual part of Exotec, but designing efficient logistics
software for automated warehouse solutions is arguably even harder
funding round, the company plans to build and sell a thousand robots by 2019
Many companies face huge spikes of demand during the holiday season for instance
So they need to make sure that it can handle a lot of pickups during the most demanding times.Other companies, such as CommonSense Robotics
focus on smaller warehouses and groceries with a warehouse-as-a-service approach
Overall, automated fulfillment centers seem like the future
Warehouses are constrained and predictable environments
And this is perfect for automated systems
