Charging networks, fleet management systems, energy platforms, and partner APIs all run in parallel but rarely communicate. Dispatchers manually coordinate sessions that should trigger automatically. Energy managers export spreadsheets that a platform should process in real time. At scale, these gaps become a ceiling […]
Neura Mobile Robots has presented an application for mobile manipulation in intralogistics for the first time at LogiMAT. Under its ek Robotics brand, Neura demonstrated how mobile transport robotics and cognitive robotics can be combined into a seamless system, enabling a new level of automation. At the heart of the application is the combination of […]
