An intuitive interface for complex tech
This automation app delivers an innovative approach for controlling an autonomous warehouse truck via an iPad. It displays new transportation orders and a virtual cockpit with real-time images in a three-dimensional interface and allows the entire set-up process – from the teach-in of pallet stations to the modelling of the driving course – to be fully performed wirelessly with the iPad. The intuitive user interface with realistic 3D and 2D views ensures that an automated warehouse can be made operative quickly and easily.
A radical approach.
Automated warehouse setups still require a lot of preperation, engineering and hight invest. iGo Easy is the complete opposite:
A single automated truck, deployable in a mixed warehouse together with manual drivers – and deployable by a single warehouse worker without any training required.
A guided experience.
The iGo Easy iPad app guides the user through all steps of the DIY setup of an automated warehouse system.
Comprehensive instructions for setting up laser refloctors, teaching pallet spots while manually driving the vehicle as well as modifying the routes directly with your finger.
After setup, the ipad acts as a nice terminal for surveilling and placing orders without a complex WMS or ERP connection needed.
