Mission-Critical Autonomous Mobility explained: why reliability, not demos, determines whether robots succeed in real-world environments.

Wayne Close  Director, Innovation, Compass One Healthcare  “Challenging the status quo” Proof of Concept ~ Autonomous Wheelchair in Acute Hospital Report  Introduction  Autonomous wheelchairs represent a transformative approach to moving patients within a hospital environment. By  adopting this innovative solution, healthcare providers can improve patient experience, enhance operational  efficiency, and set a new standard for outpatient mobility. This investment in technology

For decades, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) have represented one of the most compelling promises in applied artificial intelligence—machines capable of moving safely and independently through human environments. Yet despite global investment in sensors, algorithms, and computing, large-scale deployment remains elusive for many. The constraint is not capability but reliability , and according to Gartner’s 2024 Industrial AI Market Guide, AMRs still struggle to perform consist

Toronto-based Cyberworks Robotics and the University of Toronto have applied the same principles at work in self-driving cars.
