Addverb and Infineon Technologies announce collaboration to address important safety problems. This strategic alliance intends to integrate Infineon BLE-based communication devices into Addverb’s robotic fleet, like the Zippy 10 robots.
This collaboration shows Addverb’s dedication to improving safety procedures and creating scalable robotics capabilities, resulting in a flexible environment that satisfies international standards.
The upgraded solution has been deployed by Addverb on Zippy 10 robots in operational warehouse settings. With a BLE-powered emergency stop mechanism, these solutions allow safety precautions beyond those of normal Wi-Fi infrastructure.
They can quickly deactivate robots in delicate situations to avoid any potential hazards. A remote power cut-off feature is also included in the deployment, which enables centralized power control for massive robotic fleets without requiring user intervention at each unit.
Addverb is enabling automation for a variety of industries, including high-growth startups and Fortune 500 firms. The company has automated more than 500 warehouses worldwide and is present in six countries.
Its customers include Reliance, Amazon, Landmark Group, Maersk, DHL, Doordash, UPS, Emirates, and Indian Oil. They are a reliable partner in the transformation of smart warehouses since their solutions power operations in a variety of industries, including petrochemicals, apparel, pharmaceuticals, and FMCG.
Leadership Comments
Sangeet Kumar, Co-founder and CEO of Addverb, said, “Our collaboration with Infineon Technologies marks a pivotal step in Addverb’s pursuit of delivering intelligent, connected automation for the global supply chain. The reliability of BLE overcomes critical constraints we have observed with Wi-Fi in warehouses-especially in safety scenarios where every millisecond matters. This collaboration allows us to co-create innovations that set new standards for safety and performance in connected automation. We are confident that these innovations will qualify us to build a robust foundation of a reliable and safe automative solutions for our partners.”
Shantanu Bhalerao, Vice President, Wireless Product Line at Infineon Technologies added, “We are pleased to collaborate with Addverb in advancing safety and connectivity in industrial robotics. This partnership not only enables the integration of our advanced Bluetooth low-energy technology into real-world automation scenarios but also reinforces our commitment to delivering robust, industrial-grade connectivity solutions. Through close cooperation with Addverb’s engineering team, we are able to align our product development—such as the upcoming AIROC™ CYW20829 Bluetooth LE MCU module—with the evolving demands of large-scale robotic applications.”
