ADAM Autonomous Mobile Robots

ADAM is an AMR that independently performs random origin to random destination transport of work-in-process materials and finished goods in lean manufacturing and assembly applications. ADAM is designed to perform missions autonomously, navigating around fixed and moving objects, free of guide wires, reflectors or transponders.
