Brain Corp, a company developing software for autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), announced the availability of Site Maps to all its customers, the latest feature of its BrainOS software. Site Maps empowers facility managers using BrainOS-powered AMRs to gain advanced insights into their site operations, ensuring efficient operations and providing a complete picture of proof-of-work.

One of the major challenges faced by facilities managers, Brain Corp. said, is the difficulty in knowing what work has been completed and what has not. This is especially true when it comes to facility cleaning and trying to understand what areas have been cleaned and what tasks still need attention. BrainOS provides data insights and tools so that this important information is accessible. The new Site Maps feature within BrainOS extends the insight capabilities by providing a complete visual representation of the site’s environment. The enhanced data visualization enables facilities managers to better understand, in real time, the progress of operations.

Through accessing these visualizations, sites can train more efficient routes for their robotic fleets, plan optimized schedules, and identify areas that need additional attention to maximize coverage and reduce overlaps. Site Maps also unlock new capabilities with the BrainOS suite, such as performance grades and summary tables that show how well a facility did in completing its robotic operations during a week.

“Site maps have been a great way for our customers to receive a more comprehensive story of their operations from the data shared by robots. This has enabled our customers to really break down their progress week over week so that they are more intelligent and efficient with their operations,” Nicole Holzman-Schneider, customer success specialist at Tennant Company, said. 

Site Maps can be accessed through the web-based BrainOS Fleet Ops Portal, the BrainOS Mobile App and email reports. BrainOS customers can request to enable Site Maps for their facilities by contacting their equipment manufacturer.
