Project Examples
Most of our customers prefer to remain anonymous since Embotech provides a competitive edge for them. Here are some project examples we are authorized to mention:
With BMW Group and perception partner Seoul Robotics we are developing technology for production, automating functions for internal logistics and assembly processes.
The TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team is using Embotech’s FORCESPRO to manage energy consumption during the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship races. With the 2nd generation of Formula E cars, drivers can use up to 52kWh during the 45 minutes races. This energy budget is yet not sufficient for always driving at maximum energy consumption, so the teams must find smart methods to save on energy and concurrently drive at the maximum pace. Using FORCESPRO allows the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team to compute optimal strategies in real time on the car. This facilitates flexible adaptation to eventualities such as full course yellow periods or safety car deployments. The software needs to be capable of dealing with all foreseen and unforeseen eventualities during the race which is exactly why our FORCESPRO is a perfect fit for this application: it combines high reliability with superior resource efficiency such that the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team is able to solve sophisticated nonlinear optimization problems on the ECU of the vehicle.
Embotech’s motion planning software product, the PRODRIVER is the decision making technology running on the Einride Pod.
PROBOT, our motion planning software for industrial machines and robots is integrated in the Bystronic ByTube 130. This tube processing machine’s innovative feature “Quick Cut” is powered by PROBOT. Watch “Quick Cut” in action – the market’s highest dynamics thanks to the innovative redundant axis.
Dynamic Motion Planning at the physical limits: Autonomous obstacle avoidance and maneuvering – better than the best human driver. The results from the partnership project with ThyssenKrupp represent a breakthrough in safety for autonomous vehicles.
Vestas uses FORCESPRO to implement wind turbine production controllers using a holistic model of the wind turbine generator and the support structure. The optimal control algorithm provides intuitive tuning parameters, has been deployed in the field since 2015, and provides significantly better performance compared to standard control methods.
