How Robot Fleets achieve Full Mission Autonomy – From ROS 2 Autonomous Docking to Self-Charging

Arun Asokan
by Arun Asokan
True operational autonomy requires more than mapping since robots have stringent expectations to meet. They must manage their own energy, return to charge when needed, and resume their missions without human intervention. e-con Systems has developed a project of a ROS 2 autonomous docking system that enables these robots to......

What makes Automatic De-icing and Defogging Cameras Crucial in Dynamic Environments

Prabu Kumar
by Prabu Kumar
Autonomous embedded vision systems deployed in dynamic environments must function reliably despite rapid temperature shifts. In addition to thermal challenges, effective power management is equally critical. Such fluctuations can result in inaccurate obstacle detection, difficulty in scanning barcodes or signage, and even unexpected vision blur in safety-critical operations. e-con Systems'...

How 3D iToF Cameras Enable Reliable Perception in AMRs & Robotic Picking Systems

Suresh Madhu
by Suresh Madhu
Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) and robotic picking systems operate in dynamic, cluttered environments where a misinterpretation of depth, by even a few centimeters, can trigger a cascade of failures. No wonder that in today’s automated warehouses and factories, the margin for error is smaller than ever before. For instance, an......

Why Multi-Robot Autonomous Mapping Is Becoming Essential for Large-Scale Facilities (Part 1)

Arun Asokan
by Arun Asokan
For years, facility digitization has relied on a single, expensive robot slowly traversing every corridor of a warehouse, laboratory, or industrial plant. While effective, this approach is linear, which clashes with the fact that facilities are becoming larger and the demand for up-to-date digital twins has intensified. It means that......
