Many hands make light work

Introduction

In large, busy and dynamic environments, multiple robots may be required to get tasks done.

With a fleet management system (FMS), multiple robots can be viewed and managed simultaneously.

Core Features

1. Robot Management

With the FMS, add your robots (with Seirios RNS installed) easily by adding them with their unique IP address.

2. Task Delegation

Once your robots are added, tasks can now be delegated.

Once task(s) are added into the queue, the FMS will appoint the closest robot in proximity to execute the tasks. Do note that all connected robots will be assigned tasks and no robots will stay idle. If you have robots that you do not intend them to move, do remove them prior to delegating tasks

3. Lane Management

In environments that require precision, the lane creation feature is a useful one. Users are able to 'draw' lanes (one way or two way) and even create branches, as shown below;

With these lanes created, robots will only follow these lanes and will not move 'freely'. However, obstacle avoidance will still be in place, so that congestions will be prevented.

Use Cases (Industries)

Seirios FMS can be used in many environments with limitless applications. Here are a few examples of applications on how Seirios FMS can help move your robots in.

FAQs

  1. What is the limit of robots can the FMS control?
    Unlimited. There is no limit of robots that the FMS can control. However, do ensure your environment is able to accommodate multiple robots to prevent congestion.

  2. Does the FMS require an internet connection?
    No. However, the FMS needs to be connected to the same local area network with the robots that you intend to control

  3. Do my robots require Seirios RNS to be installed to use the FMS?
    Yes. For the FMS to delegate tasks to individual robots, those robots must be running Seirios RNS.
