XPO 2024 | Navigate an Autonomous Future at XPONENTIAL Each year, autonomy becomes more of a reality. And each year, the implications for the vertical lift industry get even more complex. A solid grasp of regulations, technological advancements, and integration standards will mean the difference between organizations that launch to the top of their game and those that fall flat. That’s where XPONENTIAL comes in. READ FULL BLOG POST:

ArcBest Launches Vaux Smart Autonomy ArcBest, the integrated logistics company, has announced its latest innovation: Vaux Smart Autonomy. This technology combines autonomous mobile robots (AMR) with remote teleoperation capabilities, optimizing material handling in warehouses and distribution centers. Vaux Smart Autonomy is an extension of the Vaux Freight Movement System, recognized by Time Inc. as one of the Best Inventions of 2023. This autonomous solution promises to transform efficiency in the global supply chain. Vaux’s AMRs can operate autonomously, remotely, or manually, equipped with advanced software, sensors, and cameras for safe and precise navigation in warehouse environments. When combined, the Vaux Freight Movement System and Vaux Smart Autonomy offer a comprehensive solution for autonomous materials movement in warehouses, significantly improving operational efficiency. ArcBest invests $175 million annually in technology and innovation to keep supply chains moving efficiently. Read more: https://lnkd.in/dYz-BKBF Source: ArcBest website

Autonomous vehicles hold the promise to improve safety and efficiency of mobility and transport. This promise extends to autonomous ships as well. First movers like SEAFAR have already introduced semi-autonomous ships to the market. Humatects contributes to this very exciting field by offering concepts and software development for human-machine interaction: How to keep the operators in a Remote Operation Centre (ROC) in the loop and how to transfer control between automation and humans safely. Together with Hochschule Bremen, DLR Institut Systems Engineering für zukünftige Mobilität and Symbio Concepts & Products we conducted two studies: 1. Contracted by European Maritime Safety Agency: What competencies are needed for future operators in ROCs? The study report can be downloaded here: https://lnkd.in/djJMV3fE. 2. Contracted by Service public fédéral Mobilité et Transports, Belgium: How to design a ROC considering qualification and certification? The study report can be downloaded here: https://lnkd.in/dTfj2Re9 We would be happy to discuss this very interesting topic with you to share ideas and concepts. #autonomousvehicles, #autonomousships, #humanmachineinteraction, #hmi, #remoteoperationscentre, #situationawareness, #softwaredevelopment

Great Quote: “Without increased productivity, it will be impossible to raise living standards in a sustainable way. One of the most important technologies to help reverse the productivity slowdown going forward is robotics.” —Rob Atkinson, Founder & President, Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) https://lnkd.in/gS9XHNzq Autonomy is not a feature; it is the North Star. It will unleash the largest productivity boom and secure our national supply chains for both commercial and defense. WHAT IS AUTONOMY PRIME? 1 - Establishing the North Star for Autonomy, for both Civil and Defense 2 - Deploying Intelligent Infrastructure Grids to Enable Autonomy 3 - Activating 24 x 7 x 365 pursuits of Autonomous Systems 4 - Launching Intelligent Infrastructure Economic Zones Nationwide If JFK gave a Speech on Intelligent Infrastructure and Autonomy: https://lnkd.in/g5GBC-Di AUTONOMY PRIME Commercial: https://lnkd.in/gMytD_bB AUTONOMY PRIME Defense: https://lnkd.in/ghsGZtN6 INTELLIGENT INFRASTRUCTURE (the foundation of ARPA-I) goes well beyond transportation and will be the brains of our economy.

This is well worth a read. The maritime sector is not what you might think. It’s a sector of discovery that is leading technological change and our understanding of our planet. What is even more amazing for us here in the #Solent is that our maritime sector is world leading and seeing Ocean Infinity as a major international innovative maritime business choosing the Solent as its base is testament to the international pedigree the area has.
