SMART FACTORY INFRA

The Facility Sees, Not the Robot Fixed-Sensor Smart Factory Infrastructure

Navi-Infra is an infrastructure-type solution where ceiling/wall fixed sensors comprehensively recognize workers, AMRs, and forklifts within zones. It breaks the linear cost increase of individual robot sensors and raises safety levels in human-robot mixed environments with blind-spot-free spatial awareness.

Key Features

4 features

Facility-Perspective Continuous Spatial Awareness

Sensors installed on ceilings observe all moving objects in a zone simultaneously. Provides bird's-eye view information of the entire zone that robot onboard sensors cannot achieve.

Human-Robot Mixed Environment Safety

Detects workers and forklifts in blind spots outside robot field of view in real time. Links immediate warnings or robot stop commands in dangerous situations.

Per-Robot Sensor Cost Structure Relief

Infrastructure sensors are shared per zone, so sensor costs do not increase proportionally as the number of robots grows. A structural advantage from a large-scale smart factory TCO perspective.

Operational Data Platform

Accumulates structured operational data such as zone dwell time, congestion frequency, and crossing movement patterns. Goes beyond simple surveillance to become the foundation for process improvement and safety policy automation.

Infrastructure Perspective vs Per-Robot Sensors: A Paradigm Shift

The existing approach mounts better LiDARs and more cameras on each robot. Reasonable for 5-10 robots, but costs increase linearly with dozens to hundreds, and blind spots outside robot field of view remain. Navi-Infra is a paradigm shift to zone-level awareness by installing sensors in the facility. One sensor set observes all moving objects in the zone simultaneously, breaking the proportional relationship between robot count growth and sensor costs.

  • No proportional sensor cost increase with robot count growth (zone-shared)
  • Simultaneous recognition of workers, AMRs, forklifts, and cargo
  • Blind spot sudden entry detection → automatic robot stop/warning
  • Phased zone-by-zone construction → retrofit application
  • Infrastructure camera-based robot position and heading estimation → direct driving control through Navi-Brain integration

Phased Construction and Operational Data Platform: Long-Term Factory Intelligence Foundation

As installing infrastructure sensors throughout a large factory at once carries high initial investment, Navi-Infra supports applying first to lines and zones, then progressively expanding to needed areas after effect verification. Accumulated operational data (dwell time, congestion frequency, recurring hazard patterns) leads to process improvement, movement optimization, and safety policy automation, providing long-term platform value beyond simple safety infrastructure.

  • Phased zone-by-zone construction → progressive expansion
  • Retrofit application without changing existing factory layout
  • Accumulation of zone dwell time, congestion frequency, crossing movement data
  • Integration with Navi-Brain: reflects infrastructure awareness in path planning
