Mobile Robots (AGV/AMR)

Motorcortex is very suitable for Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AGV) or Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR).

Motorcortex-Robot App

Motorcortex-Robot-App is a turn-key motion control software with full support for Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) and Vehicles. The Robot-App provides the machine logic, vehicle kinematics, motion control, error-handling and interfacing to hardware. Shorten your time-to-market and reduce software development time.

Less cable clutter with Motorcortex and EtherCAT

Fast EtherCAT communication gives you the freedom to connect many hardware devices and allows virtually unlimited expansion with i/o and additional axes. Integrate any Navigation System via the various APIs available. EtherCAT and Motorcortex also support Safety Over EtherCAT (FSoE), making it possible to have all devices on a single network connection, reducing the amount of cabling and connectors as compared to traditional CAN based communication.

Access to vehicle data

All vehicle data is securely accessible from a webbrowser and via open APIs for all major programming languages. The data can be streamed to and from other applications and databases at thousands of samples per second. This enables new opportunities for data use such as AI, 3D visualization and data storage.

Motorcortex.io

From your browser use the motorcortex.io portal to securely deploy the AMR-App to your fleet of Vehicles with a single click. Manage your configurations, configure your EtherCAT devices, collect, visualize and distribute data and simulate your AMRs including a Digital Twin for offline programming and debugging.

Beyond Motion Control: Lidar Simulation

Motorcortex also has solutions for simulating Lidar data, directly from the browser, so you can also use the Motorcortex-Robot app as a simulator to test your localization and navigation software. Motorcortex allows Localization and Navigation software to run on the same contoller hardware as the motion control software. It has already been tested with ROS/NAV2, Bosch Rokit and Sigmatek Locator.
