ADLINK’s IoT Solutions and Technology division debuted the Edge IoT Smart Pallet Experience during PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2019 featuring a game-like exhibit where attendees got hands-on with Edge IoT technology that makes pallets “smart” and robots “come alive.” Booth visitors stacked pallets and raced the clock for a chance to win prizes and meet Rover the Robot who gave booth visitors free t-shirts.
“Our Edge IoT solutions can help make conveyors smart, find missing inventory, automate bin picking, determine fill levels, connect robots and more—all in real-time,” says Daniel Collins, ADLINK IoT director for North America. “By bringing AI to the edge we’re helping to automate warehouse logistics in a quick and cost-effective way that increases productivity and employee ergonomics. One of our customers decreased the time it takes to build a pallet by 41%, increasing total daily throughput by 200% without disrupting the way employees are used to working.”
