The future of warehouse automation involves emerging technologies, everything from artificial intelligence (AI) and cobots to predictive maintenance, robotics, augmented reality (AR), machine learning (ML) and more.
Present day, these automated systems are revolutionizing the way warehouses operate, driving efficiency, improving accuracy, reducing labor costs, increasing safety and more.
That’s why nearly 63% of warehouse leaders plan to implement AI and AR within the next five years, with 64% planning to increase spending on warehouse modernization, and 63% already accelerating their modernization timelines or planning to do so by 2029, according to a study released by Zebra Technologies Corporation.
