By teaming up with Verity, IKEA implemented autonomous drone systems throughout its warehouses in order to improve warehouse inventory checks. The drones go from pallet to pallet, collecting images, videos and 3D depth scan data before flying back to the charging station.
There, the drones download the data they collected in order to extract actionable insights for the workforce to act on. IKEA is also working with Rebl Industries to deploy next-generation robots-as-a-service( RaaS) solutions.
