Waypoint Robotics is beyond thrilled to announce that we have been acquired by Locus Robotics to form a new heavyweight in warehouse and industrial robotics. The acquisition will serve to broaden the Locus line of proven and powerful AMR solutions with robots that address use cases from ecommerce, case-picking, and pallet-picking to scenarios requiring larger, heavier payloads. It also enables the team to serve a multitude of industrial and manufacturing use cases as well.
See a preview of what’s to come…(hint, we are just getting started!):
