Advantech Debuts Next-Gen AMR Platform at Automation Taipei 2025 — 360° 2D/3D Vision with VLM+LLM Intelligence

TAIPEI, TAIWAN – August 20, 2025 

At Automation Taipei 2025, Advantech proudly introduces the Advantech Solution Pilot AMR DevKit, a pre-validated reference design that enables developers, OEMs, and solution providers to accelerate the deployment of next generation autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). Combining 360° 2D/3D visual perception, high-performance edge AI, and multi-modal intelligence through Vision-Language Models (VLMs) and Large Language Models (LLMs), the DevKit empowers AMRs to understand, interact, and navigate with intelligence.

Designed for the demands of intelligent automation and automated services, the DevKit serves as a powerful launchpad for next-generation AMR.

See. Speak. Navigate.

The Advantech Solution Pilot AMR DevKit combines panoramic perception, edge AI, and VLM+LLM intelligence to build robots that don’t just move—they understand, label, and guide. Designed for system integrators and equipment providers, the DevKit offers a fast, modular path to upgrade traditional AGVs into intelligent AMRs.

Key Features

• 360° Surround Perception with 2D/3D Vision
  Equipped with 4 GMSL 2D and 4 stereo 3D cameras, the DevKit delivers panoramic, depth-aware sensing with millisecond-level frame sync—ideal for visual SLAM, 3D mapping, and obstacle detection. 
• Edge AI Compute Accelerated by NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin
  At the heart is the rugged, fanless MIC-732-AO, accelerated by NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin with up to 275 TOPS of AI compute. It supports NVIDIA Isaac ROS CUDA-Accelerated libraries and AI models, and NVIDIA JetPack 6.0 for accelerated inferencing, modular integration, and scalable deployment. 
• VLM-Based Scene Labeling + LLM-based Natural Language Navigation
  With integrated Vision-Language Models (VLMs), the DevKit can semantically analyze its surroundings and automatically tag locations or objects into a vector database. When paired with LLM-enabled voice or text input, users can simply say, “Where can I get some coffee?” and the AMR will navigate directly to the VLM-labeled destination—bridging visual perception and natural interaction. 
• Unified, Modular ROS 2 Architecture
  Built on ROS 2, the platform supports plug-and-play hardware, flexible I/O, and pre-integrated perception pipelines—empowering developers to focus on application logic, not infrastructure stitching.

Real-World Applications

• On-Demand Material Delivery - Use voice or text commands to flexibly feed production lines so no fixed routes or schedules required. 
• Smart Upgrades for Legacy Factories - Deploy AMRs with minimal setup to modernize workflows in existing industrial sites. 
• Hospital Automation and Nursing Assistance - Automate delivery of supplies and samples, and support nurse rounds with GenAI-enabled AMRs.

Designed for Developers, OEMs, and Strategic Partners

The Advantech Solution Pilot platform is designed to support a wide range of stakeholders in the robotics and AI ecosystem. Developers can build next-generation robots more efficiently with a unified AI and sensor platform, eliminating the need to start from scratch. OEMs benefit from faster time-to-market with validated software and hardware ecosystem. Meanwhile, technology partners are invited to collaborate through Advantech’s reference design to co-develop AMR solutions and expand their reach with Advantech.
