About Orbit
Orbit Robot Fleet Management Software by Boston Dynamics is a comprehensive tool for managing and analyzing data from a fleet of robots. Its main function is enhancing fleet management and data analysis by connecting users remotely to their robot fleet to collect and review facility data. The Orbit software offers a suite of capabilities for diverse business needs, ranging from industry-related tasks to academia and education. Robot functionality is expanded through additional sensors and hardware, enabling agile mobile sensing, integrated manipulation, industrial inspection, and automation of routine checks. It can remotely investigate and mitigate hazardous situations and help in tasks like nuclear decommissioning or identifying chemical, biological, or radiological hazards.Using Orbit, users can conduct automated and visual inspections, detect thermal anomalies and capture reliable 3D scans for worksites planning and maintenance. It further provides the ability to document construction progress and automate case handling to streamline warehousing. Users can operate the robots remotely and receive real-time alerts when anomalies are detected. It facilitates creating a visual historical catalog of site conditions and monitoring for housekeeping concerns and other issues with Orbit's vision-language model. On a larger scale, it can be deployed to manage robot operations across multiple sites. The software is designed for scalability, flexibility, and security, with support services readily available.
