![]() ![]() ![]() How you might see AMRs working together with RFID, machine vision, mobile computing and even printing platform to improve workflows, make front-line work easier and help supply chain companies better keep up with demands from customers and regulators. What’s on the automation innovation roadmap for Zebra+Fetch for the next 12 months How AMRs are helping warehouse operators, manufacturers and other companies simultaneously stop “The Great Resignation” and catch their operational capacity up to customers’ demands in the “on demand economy.” What Jim and Melonee predict will be the tipping point for AMR adoption based on trends they’re seeing unfold in supply chain environments right now. How decision-makers and front-line workers in manufacturing, warehousing, logistics, healthcare and government are really feeling about robots and how their attitudes are changing toward AMRs specifically. What Melonee and other roboticists are doing to make everyone more comfortable deploying and working around industrial robots, especially autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). Why Jim is on a mission to make robots more accessible to companies of all sizes, and how he plans to see it through. We’ve also improved AMRs’ social behaviors tremendously!) (Spoiler alert: We launched our first joint fulfillment solution in four short months and had it fully deployed in a real-world customer setting in 90 days. The key milestones that Zebra and Fetch have hit in the past 12 months from a technology development and industry acceptance perspective. How Zebra and Fetch have been able to bring their shared vision for automation to life in a very short period of time – and how customers are reacting to what we’ve been able to accomplish together so quickly. ![]() Tune into the 30-minute discussion now to hear: We wanted to see how much our integrated team has been able to accomplish since coming together. So, we thought it would be good to check back in with Jim Lawton, who leads Zebra’s Robotics Automation business, and Melonee Wise, who is driving Zebra’s robotics automation innovation efforts within the Chief Technology Office. It has only been one year since Zebra acquired Fetch Robotics, yet we’ve helped customers overcome numerous challenges through our rapid, joint innovation. We can help drive positive outcomes for our customers, which then enables them to better serve their customers. Such expansion invites new knowledge and perspectives to every decision, allowing us to deliver solutions – not just products. That’s why every acquisition brings tremendous value to Zebra, our partners, customers and consumers globally. We can remove roadblocks and accelerate business improvements however, we need diversity of thought to drive progress in our research, development, manufacturing and solution deployment initiatives. ![]() We know that if we can add more capabilities to our portfolio, then we can develop and deliver more tools that help front-line workers. The value of collective intelligence and collaborative innovation is also why we are very deliberate with our merger and acquisition (M&A) strategy. We know we are all better together – that it’s easier to identify and solve the root cause of business problems that impact society at large. That’s why Zebra has long valued the collaboration of global partners, customers, front-line workers, and other innovators. Collective intelligence is far more powerful than any single human or artificial intelligence (AI). ![]()
