Our initial customer Atlas Energy Solutions is operating fully driverless Class 8 trucks — no human in the cab — even hauling triple trailers. Not a demo. Not a pilot. A commercial product. For Kodiak, that means we are in the commercialization phase, operating a driver-as-a-service business, RIGHT NOW. The gap between perception and reality in this industry is staggering. Let's fix that! Link to learn more in comments. #KodiakAI #AutonomousTrucking #Driverless #PhysicalAI #Logistics

At the VDI Conference – Autonomous Trucks, Georg Kuschk, PhD, Director of R&D at PlusAI, will present the technology behind SuperDrive™ — our AI-native virtual driver powering factory-built autonomous trucks. He will also join Astrid Hagqvist from TRATON GROUP for a fireside chat discussing the collaboration between PlusAI and TRATON and the roadmap to scalable Level 4 deployment.

Working with strong partners like Numina Group is how automation actually gets deployed—not just demonstrated. Together, we’re focused on making #automation practical and effective in real operations. At their Modex booth, the #APJ (Autonomous Pallet Jack) will be shown as part of a broader solution—highlighting how #autonomous movement integrates into real workflows, not just standalone demos. If you’re attending, it’s worth seeing both perspectives: • Anantak Robotics (Booth A1131) — how autonomous vehicles operate together in continuous material flow • Numina Group (Booth B14545) — how autonomy fits into picking, packing, and fulfillment systems Together, it’s a more complete picture: how automation fits into your operation, and how it performs on the floor.

"We stand on the shoulders of giants." It is impossible to bring boundary-pushing and defining products to market without the help, support and partnership of those who have already accomplished so much in our industry. I'm proud to work alongside Numina to bring autonomous vehicles to market. Their solutions, including their Real-time Distribution System (RDS) orchestration layer, and over 40 years of turnkey automation experience in the manufacturing and warehousing industry, powerfully complement Anantak's autonomous vehicle portfolio.

In modern warehouses, Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) consistently rank as the most efficient equipment, outperforming traditional systems in productivity and scalability.

Numina Group partners with Anantak Robotics to deliver next-generation autonomous vehicles, including pallet jacks, forklifts, and tuggers, fully integrated into a unified warehouse system. These solutions handle pallet movement, transport, and material flow as part of a coordinated system, orchestrated by RDS™ to improve efficiency and reduce labor.

One topic will shape the industry sooner than many expect: autonomous trucking. From a technology perspective, the key question is not when autonomous vehicles will arrive. It’s whether the digital infrastructure around them is ready. What autonomous trucks need in order to work seamlessly: • digital bookings • standardized interfaces • structured routing and dispatching • pre-defined workflows for various loading point types • real-time monitoring • automated billing and documentation • seamless communication between all stakeholders That’s exactly what driveMybox GmbH is already providing. When vehicles become autonomous, the surrounding ecosystem must already be digital, connected, and able to process operational data in real time. In that sense, the transition toward autonomous logistics is not a leap - it’s an evolution of the digital platforms we are building today. And from a system architecture perspective, we are ready for that era. #driveMybox #LogTech #AutonomousTrucking #DigitalLogistics #PlatformEngineering

Implementing autonomous vehicles in warehouses and production facilities brings not only benefits but also new challenges. One of the biggest issues is visibility. For a forklift operator, autonomous vehicles are often difficult to notice, and just a moment of inattention can lead to a collision and costly damage. This is where AI‑powered vision safety systems make a real difference. TS‑Forklift detects autonomous vehicles near the forklift and automatically slows the machine down or alerts the operator before an incident occurs. It’s a practical layer of protection that helps reduce risks and improve workplace safety. https://lnkd.in/djfe4pW9 #safety #forklift #autonomousvehicles #warehouse #ai #forkliftsafety #tsafety #logistics #automation #safetyAI #AMR #AGV

🚛 How scalable are today’s validation strategies for autonomous trucks? 🎤 At the International VDI Conference – Autonomous Trucks 2026, Dr.-Ing.

What breaks first when self-driving trucks really hit the road, the truck or the back office? 💥 The vehicles are getting smart enough to handle the driving, but most logistics software still requires slow, manual updates. It's time for our daily operations platforms to catch up to the hardware. Check out the full post below. #transportial #autonomoustrucks #TMS
