AMRs & AGVs
AMRs and AGVs are the mobile layer of warehouse and factory automation: fleet software, safety scanners, and WMS hooks that turn aisles into flexible material flows.
Why it matters: Mobile robots sit between WMS/WES systems and human pickers — they absorb labor volatility in fulfillment, feed production lines without permanent conveyor builds, and extend into facility inspection and last-mile pilots. EAR tracks the manufacturers, platforms, and integration risks that decide whether a fleet pays back in brownfield sites.

Warehouse AMR
4 trackedGoods-to-person, tote, and pallet AMRs for e-commerce and 3PL — SLAM fleets wired to WMS/WES.
View subcategory →AGVs
1 trackedGuided or semi-guided vehicles for repeatable plant routes — often heavier payloads than free-roaming AMRs.
View subcategory →Inspection rovers
1 trackedQuadrupeds and wheeled rovers for facility patrol, data capture, and infrastructure checks.
View subcategory →Delivery / last-mile
2 trackedSidewalk and campus delivery bots — ordinance, teleops, and curb handoff dominate over hardware.
