SAN DIEGO (July 22, 2020) — Brain Corp, an AI company creating transformative core technology in the robotics industry, today announced that it has surpassed 2 millionhours of global operation powering the world’s largest fleet of autonomous commercial mobile robots operating in public indoor spaces.
The milestone was achieved earlier this month due in part to a recent surge in activity by retailers who are maximizing their use of BrainOS-powered cleaning robots in the wake of the COVID-19 health crisis.
Median robotic usage among retailers in US locations rose by 13.8% during Q1 of 2020, compared to the same period last year, and jumped by 24% during Q2 of 2020, according to Brain Corp internal data.
“We have seen a sharp increase in usage and adoption over the last quarter, as grocers and retailers try to adjust to a constant state of clean due to the health crisis,” said Dr. Eugene Izhikevich, CEO at Brain Corp. “We are grateful to be working with our manufacturing partners to provide value to retailers during these challenging times. We are also proud to have broken through the 2 million autonomous hours mark, which reflects the unmatched performance and safety of our technology.”
Brain Corp’s manufacturing partners use the company’s AI software platform, BrainOS, to develop a number of robotic applications, including floor scrubbers, vacuum sweepers, in-store delivery tugs, and shelf scanners. These solutions help expand workforce capacity, improve facility safety, and demonstrate a brand’s commitment to innovation. Working with its partners, Brain Corp has deployed over 10,000 robots worldwide in retail and grocery stores, malls, airports, hospitals, universities, and other dynamic public environments.
