OTTO Lifter V2

The OTTO Lifter V2 is an autonomous forklift developed by OTTO Motors (a division of Clearpath Robotics, now under Rockwell Automation) for materials handling in manufacturing and warehouse environments. It carries loads up to 1,200 kg at speeds of 1.5 m/s and features multiple sensor systems for autonomous pallet acquisition and transport.

Overview and Use Cases

The OTTO Lifter V2 is an autonomous mobile robot (AMR) designed for pallet transport in industrial facilities. It operates in manufacturing and warehouse environments where autonomous materials handling is required. The system performs autonomous pallet acquisition, transport, and placement tasks without human intervention.

Key Capabilities

  • Autonomous pallet acquisition and handling
  • Operation with misplaced or stretch-wrapped pallets
  • Independent path planning and navigation
  • Safe autonomous load manipulation
  • Multi-sensor fusion for obstacle detection and payload assessment

Specifications

Payload and Performance:

  • Maximum payload capacity: 1,200 kg (2,640 lb)
  • Travel speed: 1.5 m/s (3.4 mph)
  • Autonomous lift height: 30 inches
  • Maximum lift height (manual mode): 106 inches

Sensor Suite:

  • Five 3D cameras
  • Three LiDARs
  • Seven payload sensors for pallet acquisition, placement, and stability assessment
  • Fork impact sensors for load interaction detection

Applications

The OTTO Lifter V2 is deployed in warehouse operations and manufacturing facilities for:

  • Autonomous pallet transport between work stations
  • Materials movement within production environments
  • Inventory logistics in distribution centers

Manufacturer

The OTTO Lifter V2 is developed by OTTO Motors, a division of Clearpath Robotics. OTTO Motors is headquartered in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. The parent company is now under Rockwell Automation.

Relay 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.

Spot

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.

RealSense Depth Camera D455Robot

RealSense 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.
