Curious to see what Co-founder amnd CEO Erik Nieves presented at Promat DX 2021? Here is the corrected version of the presentation that led to Erik to write his Linked-In post that he starts with, “We had to make a hard call today.” Here Erik explains the evolution of supervised autonomy, how warehouse operators can mitigate labor shortages by automating tasks from dock to door in ecommerce fulfillment and distribution centers, and more.

How can humans and robots work do more when working together? See what happens when a warehouse robot picking arm comes across an item that is not pickable (e.g., a ketchup bottle perhaps?). This is a Plus One Robotics demonstration of how our program Yonder works with one of our turn-key applications, our Quick Deployment Kit.

FedEx recently deployed four parcel-handling robots from Plus One Robotics in the small-package sorting area of its Memphis Hub.

The PickOne Perception System identifies the pick points of parcels in an accumulation chute and sends the points to your robot. The robot arm picks and places each parcel onto an outbound conveyor.

PickOne verifies placement and addresses errors by issuing robot commands to reposition errant parcels. PickOne applications include induction, decanting, packing, order consolidation, cycle counting, and mixed depalletizing.

Plus One Robotics, JR Automation, and Fanuc America team up to deliver 3-D/AI powered random mixed depalletizing for the logistics market.

Custom design takes time. Get started in less than a month with Plus One Robotics’ pre-engineered Quick Deployment Kit (QDK), a fully integrated hardware and software solution including perception, manipulation, and intelligence.

QDK applications include: Goods-to-robot, order consolidation, decanting, cycle counting, singulation, induction, order packing.

Plus One Robotics’ CEO Erik Nieves explains why supervised autonomy is the “missing middle” of robotics – a new and untapped market where one human Crew Chief can digitally manage a crew of robots located anywhere in real time.

We understand what the logistics industry is going through – massive growth in e-commerce demand, but also a challenging labor market. Plus One’s software gives robot arms the ability to see the world and the intelligence to perform monotonous material handling tasks so people can be elevated to more challenging and rewarding jobs. Robots work. People rule.

Co-founders Erik Nieves, Shaun Edwards, and Paul Hvass discuss how their collaboration to launch the ROS-Industrial open source software project led to their current collaboration – Plus One Robotics.

VP of Sales, Dave Scheffrahn explains four advantages of connecting a human Crew Chief to your robots using Plus One’s Yonder software.

With Plus One Robotics, MSC has deployed a patent-pending 3D-vision and AI-enabled robotic packing system in its Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, customer fulfillment center and now plans to implement the system across its five major centers.

See how PlusOne’s Yonder software enables a remote human Crew Chief to keep warehouse robots working even when encountering unexpected challenges.

Co-founder and COO Paul Hvass guides you through a tour of the Plus One Customer Experience Center, including demonstrations of the Quick Deployment Kit, PickOne/Yonder Software, and CheckOne.

At the first annual public session of the re:MARS conference in Las Vegas, Plus One Robotics CEO Erik Nieves presented his vision for cognitive collaboration as the enabling technology for widespread adoption of robotics in e-commerce. People–with their abilities to perceive the world, think and make decisions–will supply what robots lack. Collaborating cognitively, people and robots will be able to address inherently variable tasks, like those found in e-commerce and beyond.
