AGV reliability meets AMR flexibility. Get the best of both worlds in one hybrid mobile robot navigation system.

NODE.move is the hybrid navigation skill within NODE.OS, developed for reliable and flexible mobile robot navigation in industrial environments. It combines the precision of AGV navigation with the adaptability of AMR behavior, allowing robots to operate in a controlled yet responsive way across a wide range of applications.

With NODE.move, robots can either follow predefined paths with high precision or adjust their movement dynamically within defined corridors based on real-time sensor data. This allows consistent task execution while maintaining the flexibility to respond to changing conditions in the environment.

The system continuously processes 2D layout data, live 3D obstacle information, and vehicle kinematics within an integrated path planning framework. Routes are recalculated within milliseconds, enabling robots to stay on course, avoid obstacles, and continue operating without manual intervention.

Configurable autonomy levels make it possible to define the right navigation behavior for each application, from fixed route guidance to adaptive motion strategies. This gives manufacturers and operators a navigation solution that can be tailored to different vehicle types, environments, and process requirements.

In applications such as automated material handling and intralogistics, NODE.move supports end-to-end transport task execution, including pick-up, go-to, and drop-off processes. Built-in VDA 5050 support enables seamless communication with higher-level systems and ensures reliable real-time status exchange during operation.

For additional flexibility, NODE.move includes an SDK for integrating application-specific behaviors such as custom docking maneuvers. Commissioning is designed to be efficient, with automatically generated road maps and autonomy levels that can be configured per corridor.

NODE.move provides a robust and scalable mobile robot navigation solution for industrial operations that require both precision and adaptability.
