OTTO 100
The OTTO 100 is a compact autonomous mobile robot (AMR) manufactured by OTTO by Rockwell Automation, designed for material transport in manufacturing and warehouse environments. First launched in 2017, it features a payload capacity of up to 150 kg and operates at speeds up to 4.5 mph with infrastructure-free autonomous navigation.
Overview and Use Cases
The OTTO 100 is an autonomous mobile robot developed for crowded manufacturing and warehouse environments. The platform has accumulated over 10 million production hours across deployments in automotive, food and beverage, consumer packaged goods, and other industrial sectors.
Key Capabilities
- Autonomous Navigation: Infrastructure-free navigation using safety LiDAR, 3D cameras, and optical rear sensor
- Fleet Management: Managed via OTTO Fleet Manager software with fleet-wide inter-robot communication capabilities
- Payload Handling: Transports boxes, bins, carts, stacked totes, and other lightweight payloads
- Safety Systems: Equipped with integrated LiDAR and camera-based obstacle detection and avoidance
Specifications
- Payload Capacity: Up to 150 kg (330 lb)
- Dimensions: 740 × 550 × 308 mm (29.1 × 21.7 × 12.1 inches)
- Maximum Speed: 4.5 mph (approximately 2.0 m/s)
- Battery Runtime: Approximately 6 hours per charge
- Form Factor: Compact design optimized for crowded facility navigation
Applications
The OTTO 100 is deployed for material transport and logistics automation across multiple industrial sectors, including automotive manufacturing, food and beverage production, and consumer packaged goods facilities. Deployment examples include rapid multi-unit rollouts, such as 9 units deployed in 2 days at an automotive original equipment manufacturer in August 2024.
Manufacturer
The OTTO 100 is manufactured by OTTO by Rockwell Automation, headquartered in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. The company was formed when Rockwell Automation acquired OTTO Motors (a Clearpath Robotics spin-off) in October 2023 for up to $600 million.

RobotRelay Delivery Robot
The Relay Delivery Robot is an autonomous indoor delivery robot developed by Relay Robotics (formerly known as Savioke), designed primarily for hospitality and healthcare environments. It navigates hotel corridors and hospital hallways independently, rides elevators without human assistance, and delivers guest amenities, medications, linens, and other supplies directly to rooms or designated drop-off points. Relay is one of the most widely deployed service robots in its category, reportedly completing over one million lifetime deliveries with a publicly cited success rate of approximately 99.8%. With a cargo capacity of around 10 gallons, the robot is compact enough to operate in busy public spaces while carrying a meaningful payload of everyday supplies.

RobotSpot
Spot is a four-legged autonomous robot developed by Boston Dynamics, a robotics company headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts. Designed for inspection, security, and data collection in complex or hazardous environments, Spot can navigate stairs, rough terrain, and confined spaces that are inaccessible to wheeled robots. It is commercially available and has been deployed across industries including utilities, oil and gas, construction, and public safety. Spot supports a modular payload system that accommodates thermal cameras, pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras, lidar units, methane sensors, and other mission-specific hardware. Boston Dynamics also offers the Orbit fleet-management software platform, enabling operators to schedule autonomous inspection routes, aggregate sensor data, and manage multiple Spot units from a central interface. The robot is widely regarded as one of the most capable and commercially mature legged robots on the market.

RobotRealSense Depth Camera D455
The RealSense Depth Camera D455 is a stereoscopic active-infrared depth camera belonging to Intel's D400 series, designed to capture high-fidelity depth data for robotics, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), drones, and computer-vision applications. It features a 95 mm stereo baseline — the widest in the D400 lineup at the time of its introduction — which reportedly enables depth error of under 2% at ranges up to approximately 4 metres. Originally developed under the Intel RealSense brand, the D455 and related products were later spun off as part of an independent RealSense business unit following Intel's restructuring of the division around 2021–2022. The camera is widely adopted in research, industrial automation, and humanoid-robot development owing to its compact USB-powered form factor, open SDK support, and relatively accessible price point.
