Geek+, a global provider of autonomous mobile robots and warehouse automation, and Universal Logic, a pioneer of an AI, machine-control software “brain” for robots, have recently announced a new partnership. Together, the two  declared a joint commitment to supporting the manufacturing and logistics industry with a goods-to-robot solution, for automating supply chain operations and elevating industry 4.0.

“We are very glad to partner with Universal Logic and look forward to leveraging their extensive experience in automating dynamic robot behavior to realize the full potential of our intelligent mobile robotics solutions.

Built on autonomous mobile robot technology and AI-driven software, Geek+ will provide Universal Logic with the flexibility to automate the entire chain from dynamic inventory control to pick & pack, expanding from goods-to-man to goods-to-robot solutions. Geek+ will have access to Neocortex, Universal Logic’s AI platform featuring real-time and modular robot control for extended perception, direct grasping, and advanced robot guidance, enabling human-like flexible picking capabilities.

The collaboration will enable the two to strengthen their industry leadership and provide clients with flexible, adaptable, and efficient operations that can meet challenges associated with high mix/high volume applications in manufacturing, wholesale and retail.
