HUMANOID ROBOTIC
AUTOMATION
In Development: Advanced Control Cards
for Humanoid Robot Automation
REVOLUTIONIZING YOUR WORKFLOW
Today's distribution centers face a range of challenges that can greatly impact efficiency and performance. From dated systems to workforce shortages, current systems frequently fall short when tasked to keep up with these challenges and other demands of modern logistics. Humanoid robots are the next step, offering unmatched automation, precision, and scalability. Facility Functions is positioned to lead integration of this next generation technology.
This is where we come in.
Facility Functions Inc. is developing a conveyor control card capable of wirelessly integrating the communications process between humanoid robots and your existing logistical data systems. This will transform existing order fulfillment processes using real-time wireless instructions and responses that will maximize efficiencies within your operations.
Below, we explore the critical challenges of integration and demonstrate how our technology can solve these issues by unlocking the full power of humanoid robots, paving the way for more efficient, scalable, and future-ready operations.
Problem & Solution
Energy Efficiency
Traditional systems that operate continuously around the clock often result in significant energy waste and increased operational costs. This inefficient design leads to substantial financial losses that could be avoided. Our solution addresses this issue by providing refined, filtered data and on-demand conveyance in real-time. By ensuring that conveyor systems run only when necessary, our approach directly reduces electricity consumption and leads to substantial cost savings.
Problem & Solution
24/7 Order Fulfillment &
Manpower Availability
Labor shortages and high turnover rates in distribution centers make it difficult to maintain consistent and efficient 24/7 operations. The challenge of finding and retaining skilled workers exacerbates this issue, hindering scalability and overall productivity. Our solution addresses this by integrating humanoid robots into the workforce, reducing reliance on manual labor and ensuring continuous, efficient operations even during labor shortages.
Problem & Solution
Production Inefficiencies
Outdated or non-integrated systems often lead to production inefficiencies, resulting in slower processing times, increased downtime, and reduced throughput. The lack of real-time coordination between systems can exacerbate these issues, causing errors in the picking, packing, and shipping processes. To address these challenges, we provide a seamless data connection between conveyor systems and humanoid robots. By refining data in real-time, our solution enhances total operational synchronization, reduces bottlenecks, and improves overall throughput, leading to a more efficient and streamlined workflow.

Problem & Solution
Underutilized Available Data
Distribution centers generate vast amounts of data, but much of it remains underutilized, limiting its potential to improve operations.
Our solution addresses this by refining, filtering, and translating bulk data into actionable insights enhancing overall performance and efficiency.
Problem & Solution
Large Facility Footprint Requirements
As distribution centers expand to meet growing demand, they often require larger facilities to accommodate additional conveyor systems, storage, and workforce. This increases overhead costs and complicates logistics. Our solution optimizes space through robotic integration, allowing humanoid robots to work with streamlined data to make better use of available space.
Problem & Solution
Scalability
Scaling operations with traditional systems can be costly, complex, and only a temporary fix, especially for distribution centers facing fluctuating demands. Our solution addresses these issues by offering a scalable interface that adapts effortlessly to changing demands and allow for continued growth.
Problem & Solution
System Integration
Traditional systems often struggle to integrate with emerging robotic technologies, which can put distribution centers at a disadvantage compared to competitors with updated systems. Our solution addresses this challenge by offering seamless connections between humanoid robots and existing systems.
Problem & Solution
Communication & Information Lag
In the fast-paced and demanding environment of distribution centers, delayed data processing can significantly disrupt operations. Our solution offers instant data transfer that enables real-time robotic responses.
Problem & Solution
Manual Errors Can Be Avoided
Manual processes or poorly integrated systems often lead to errors in order fulfillment, such as incorrect item picking, mislabeling, and shipping delays, which can result in customer dissatisfaction, increased returns, and higher operational costs. To mitigate these risks, our solution introduced automated data filtering and robot integration. By refining and filtering bulk data, we ensure that humanoid robots receive accurate and actionable information, thereby minimizing human error and enhancing overall operational accuracy.
