R&D of a large-scale automated warehouse system utilizing optimized fleet control for resolving the logistics crisis

Business Plan

Alongside the growth of e-commerce, the large-scale growth of warehouses is an urgent matter. On the other hand, automation is necessary as large warehouses lead to an increase in worker walking distance. However, existing robots have a critical flaw of severe congestion occurring when multiple units are operating simultaneously. In order to resolve this issue, this project will lead to the development of RENATUS Myria, a large-scale automated warehouse system utilizing optimized fleet control.

Research Outline

In this R&D effort, RENATUS Myria, an automated warehouse system which implements the simultaneous operation of multiple shuttle robots in any given floor, will be developed. By realizing a new system with significantly higher throughput and scalability compared to existing systems, RENATUS Myria will aim to resolve the severe labor shortage issue in the warehouse industry. The R&D items for RENATUS Myria are as follows:

  • [1] In a physical environment, verify that 2 robots (per floor) can share and operate on the same floor through the proprietary dispatch algorithm.
  • [2] After pre-operation inspections, verify that the shuttle robot can operate continuously for 8 hours without malfunctions or errors.
  • [3] With numerical experimentation, verify that the real-time control of 3000 shuttle robots is possible through the algorithm.
  • [4] Keep the time delay between the dispatch software's route planning and the actual shuttle to under 1 second.
