Formant has released a cloud-based data collection, analysis, and management offering for robots.

Description:

RBR50 Robotics Innovation Awardsobotics Business ReviewAn emerging challenge for enterprise robotics users is analyzing the data gathered and generated by fleets of robots. Formant.io provides the analytics platform, which presents application data in a single Web-based user interface.

Formant’s cloud software enables organizations to monitor robot fleets in real time, look deeply into their operations, and take remote control of individual robots if needed.

The San Francisco-based company said its monitoring, analytics, and intuitive interface can help healthcare, maintenance, construction companies and more.


Analysis:

As mobile robots and other hardware gradually commoditize, the value of automation lies in analyzing and acting upon business data. Formant has created a platform that is ready to handle increasingly complex tasks and robot configurations while focusing on delivering actionable information to end users.

Even as systems gain more autonomy, humans will still need to be “in the loop” for higher-level decisions, particularly those affecting mission-critical enterprise functions.

With automated analytics and annotated data, Formant’s platform allows humans to work with robots in real time while also having instant access to relevant historical data. -- Eugene Demaitre
