אודות פרק זה
On this episode, host Chad Warzecha is joined by Jackie Wu, Founder and CEO at Corvus Robotics, a manufacturer of drones used for fully automated inventory management in the warehouse.
Jackie and his team build their own vehicles and other hardware, and they write their own software to maintain complete control over the way their drones work for inventory management. The drones have multiple sensors and cameras on them, as well as an industrial-grade scanner that can read barcodes that may be ripped or otherwise damaged.
The most obvious benefit that the drone system brings is a dramatic increase in inventory accuracy. Additionally, there are substantial savings in labor costs because the drones can replace most, or all, human workers traditionally needed to physically count inventory in the warehouse racks.
The way Jackie and his team look at it is that cycle counts and physical inventories are substantially augmented with drone technology. Instead of hiring a hundred people and having to pay overtime, these tasks can be performed by a much smaller team.
It’s new technology, but there is tremendous market interest. Corvus is always looking for ways to improve and add new features.
