![]() ![]() Mateusz – 00:04:11: It’s kind of similar, Mike. And so that’s what I love doing when I’m not sitting at the computer writing about robots. It’s so peaceful to be in the evenings looking at the night sky. Mike – 00:03:51: Well, I’m a photographer, so I love taking pictures of the night sky, the Milky Way. Before we nerd out on autonomous mobile robots and I love the topic, we’ve also been working with AMRs at Fresh for over five years. As a consultant, I’ve been doing quite a lot of review of what’s going on in robotics, and this also sparked my side project Weekly Robotics, a newsletter where every week I deliver news and information about interesting projects in the industry. Quite far away from mobile robotics, but every now and then, I still work with companies that look into implementing some software for robotics platforms. So the company is called DTE and they are making robots that shoot lasers into metal alloys to analyze the metal composition. However, the last year or two or two, I’ve been working with a company that’s in heavy metal industry. I’ve been consulting for five years now, and I started working in robotics around eight years ago. So I started the Mobile Robot Guide as a way for the industry to benefit from that knowledge, and then two years ago sold the publication and joined the WTWH Media family as a part of the editorial team for The Robot Report and now The Mobile Robot Guide as well. Tried to figure out what I wanted to do, but I had all this information in my head about the market for mobile robots. ![]() I was at Adept for multiple years until the organization was sold to Omron and at that point became a consultant. And so I got passionate about mobile robots again and the opportunity to get deeper into the industry. And I was super excited about that, primarily because I had been become a coach for a FIRST Robotics team when my son was in high school. Yeah, so I came to this industry three plus decades ago, starting as an applications engineer for Adept Technology and then ultimately found my way into product management, spent some time in several of the leading enterprise software companies in Silicon Valley, and then ultimately got recruited to come back to Adept in 2015 to run product management for their mobile robot product line. Can you tell the listeners a little bit more about your experience in the space and why you’re passionate about AMRs? Mike – 00:01:05: Great, thanks for having us. It’s a pleasure to have you both here on the show. In this episode on The Future Of, Autonomous Mobile Robots, we’re joined by Mike Oitzman, founder of the Mobile Robot Guide and a Robot Report contributor, and Mateusz Sadowski, an Engineer and Robot Consultant passionate about Autonomous Mobile Robotics, also with deep experience in Avionic Robotics. Together, we’ll chat with leaders and experts in the field and discuss how we can shape the future, human, experience. Jeff – 00:00:19: Welcome to The Future Of, a podcast by Fresh Consulting, where we discuss and learn about the future of different industries, markets, and technology verticals. And the workers love it because they can just sit there and pack as fast as they can throw it on, and they’re getting credit for much higher volume and the rows get picked faster. Mike – 00:00:01: Companies automating the movement of grapes from those field row workers to the packout station. ![]() They also dive into the exponential growth of AMRs in the market due to cost reduction and robotics as a service model, fleets of robots being the next step on the evolutionary curve for mobile robot companies, and their vision of the future of autonomous mobile robots ten to twenty years from now. Mateusz Sadowski, Robotics and Drone Consultant at M.Sadowski Consulting, and Mike Oitzman, Founder of Mobile Robot Guide, join Jeff Dance to discuss the future of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) to replace dangerous and monotonous jobs that don’t fit with humans.
