Command Software for Autonomous Vehicle Robots Increases Safety and Efficiency in Industry

Today, several sectors in industry require the use of industrial vehicles.

Utah, UT (prHWY.com) August 20, 2012 - Today, several sectors in industry require the use of industrial vehicles. Unfortunately, human operation of industrial vehicles or machinery can cause undue risk to the operators themselves or others around them. Autonomous Solutions, an end to end automation company ,creates the hardware and software necessary to automate vehicles. They specialize in command software for autonomous vehicles and have automated over fifty different kinds of industrial vehicles. These vehicle robots not only add to the safety of machinery operators but also have the ability to increase an industry's efficiency.

Reducing the Danger: Autonomous Vehicles Increase Safety in the Workplace

Human operation of industrial vehicles has an enormous potential for risks and accidents. Workers may be struck by the vehicles, may be struck by objects falling from vehicles, may fall from the machinery, or might be injured from a vehicle overturning (European Agency for Safety and Health at Work). There are also possibilities for worker fatigue. Autonomous Solutions creates vehicle robots that remove operators from safety-critical operations. These autonomous vehicles are able to complete dirty and risky jobs without posing a risk to thehuman operators.

Autonomous Solutions develops command software for several vehicle robots for industries that have the potential to be hazardous. These industries include but are not limited to, agriculture, mining, construction, and HAZMAT operations, and automotive testing. These autonomous vehicles do not require a human driver/operator and therefore, tremendously decrease human risk. Several of Autonomous Solutions' vehicle robots employ a laser-based obstacle detection system called Foresight. Foresight was developed by Autonomous Solutions and has the ability to detect objects higher than one meter at a range of fifty meters. This safety feature of autonomous vehicles sharply decreases the risk of collision with stationary objects, other vehicles, and humans.

Increasing Workplace Efficiency Through Vehicle Robots

One of the key goals of several companies is to increase the efficiency of their industry. Industries that use man-operated machinery have the ability to reach their highest potential for efficiency by using command software and vehicle robots.

Industries that use human operated vehicles often encounter several roadblocks. Human operators often encounter fatigue. Their inability to work 24/7 shortens work and production hours. Autonomous Solutions combats this problem by creating vehicle robots that can work day and night, thus increasing an industry's potential for production. The efforts an industry must put in to maintain its workers can also decrease efficiency. Machinery accidents can take vehicle operators away from work for several weeks or months at a time. In addition, the task of procuring able workers can cost a company both time and money. An industry must confirm that a potential vehicle operator has the abilities, credentials, experience, and health requirements necessary to run the machinery (European Agency for Safety and Health at Work). Autonomous Solutions' vehicle robots use command software that allows workers to be removed from an unsafe work environment. Furthermore, the abilities of the autonomous vehicles are all of the same caliber and quality, eliminating the gap between novice and expert machine operators. In addition, the autonomous vehicles are precise and can follow the
