Qualcomm Technologies has announced the world’s first integrated 5G iot processor designed to support four major operating systems, two new robotics platforms, and an accelerator program for iot ecosystem partners.
“Qualcomm Technologies is committed to driving innovation, creating new business opportunities, and empowering next-generation 5G connectivity and top edge AI technologies, starting with ensuring accessibility and performance across the ecosystem.” Dev Singh, vice president of business development and head of Building, Enterprise and Industrial Automation at Qualcomm Technologies, said these new innovations will enable manufacturers to participate in the rapid expansion of smart connected edge devices.
In the course of this release, Qualcomm will continue to support business innovation and mature system construction in the growing field of robotics. There is no doubt that these new initiatives by Qualcomm will inject new momentum into the robot industry in various fields around the world.
As the pioneer and leader of the fourth generation of mobile robots (visual AMR), Lingmo Technology has achieved deep integration of its AMR products and Qualcomm robot platform, and the two sides have achieved improvements in real-time communication capabilities between AMR and servers, data processing efficiency, autonomous navigation and other aspects.
Zio, Founder &CEO of Smart Tech, said: “Smart Tech is excited to support Qualcomm Technologies’ expansion into its Connected Intelligent Edge ecosystem. With the Qualcomm Robotics platform, our AMR gets more support for deep learning computer vision, not only to process data faster, but also to accelerate autonomous navigation capabilities. Smart Technology is a 5G AMR pioneer and has helped many smart factories achieve 5G digital transformation. The new Qualcomm platform further enhances the ability to communicate in real time between AMR and servers. By strengthening our AMR capabilities, we will be better able to provide customers in industries such as 3PL, retail, e-commerce and manufacturing with the latest technology and help them address labor shortages, order efficiency and picking accuracy, and other supply chain challenges.”

Since March 2020, TCL has started to combine 5G networks with smart terminals. After the transformation of AMR communication module based on machine vision, Smart Technology added 5G communication module, which can follow workers to sort raw materials, count quantities, and independently plan transportation routes under the premise of extremely low delay, and deeply participate in the digital construction of TCL 5G factory.

In the 5G network environment, Smart AMR gives full play to the advantages of 5G and fourth-generation mobile robots: low delay and high-reliability switching of large-area networks, so that the delay of each Smart AMR is controlled within 60ms, and the delay generated by each network switching is not more than 60ms.

In addition, 5G network brings greater upload bandwidth and higher number of concurrent communications, which brings faster upload bandwidth for Smart technology AMR, so that Smart technology AMR can continuously upload the real-time status of the robot, business update information, surrounding environment information and other key elements, so that managers can control the current warehousing and logistics operation; Secondly, the higher concurrent communication in the 5G network environment also supports the simultaneous operation of more AMRs in the same workshop or the same network conditions, which greatly improves the operational efficiency.

Join hands with Qualcomm to create more new business opportunities

Qualcomm’s series of innovations will play more of a role in expanding intelligent edge connected devices for enterprises in the ecosystem. These characteristics have been reflected in the practical application of smart technology. At present, under the trend of digitalization and automation transformation, manufacturing, warehousing and logistics industries are moving in the direction of cost reduction and efficiency and stable operation. The use of the most advanced technology to improve production efficiency and ensure the stability of the production line is also the direction of Smart Technology and Qualcomm Technologies for a long time. Next, Lingmo Technology will further expand its cooperation with Qualcomm and explore more in-depth cooperation opportunities in the automated logistics scene.
