The challenge
Designing a warehouse for autonomous vehicles meant custom scripts and manual deployments. It relied on a handful of people, and every change took days.
What we built
A desktop modelling tool where engineers draw, validate and view the layout in 2D before importing it into the platform that runs the warehouse floor.
What it does
- Draw warehouse layouts for fleets of autonomous vehicles
- Validate each layout in 2D before it goes live
- Import the layout into the platform that runs the floor
- Automated packaging and deployment
The result
Engineers design, validate and deploy warehouse layouts in one application, instead of running custom scripts.
The knowledge sits with the client's team, not with a supplier.
How we built it
C# and .NET for the modelling tool and its 2D validation, PowerShell scripts for automated packaging, and deployment on AWS.
Our role
The visualisation layer, the web interface and the packaging scripts, plus training the client's team to run and extend the tool.
