Making self-driving indoor vehicles to carry people and things.

A&K Robotics has developed a navigation system that transforms manually operated industrial machines into self-driving robots. Their retrofit system allows anything with wheels to navigate autonomously in dynamic indoor environments where GPS does not work. A&K Robotics is developing an intelligent autonomous navigation system that is transforming the way workplaces operate, with a goal to facilitate co-working and collaboration between people and robots around the world. A&K equipped intelligent machines have been internationally tested and proven across a diverse array of complex real-world environments, from retail, to airports, and education facilities. With cutting-edge algorithms and a multi-sensor approach, A&K’s solution is reliable in complex, dynamic indoor environments where objects are frequently moved and people are active.

A&K was founded on a shared belief that robotics and AI technology can drastically improve our world and quality of life. Through applied research A&K is developing innovative, helpful robots that will benefit people and society and advance a knowledge-based economy for future generations. The venture-backed company is an alumni of Creative Destruction Lab’s world-renowned AI and Machine Learning program at the University of Toronto and is based out of British Columbia’s leading accelerator space, VentureLabs, based in downtown Vancouver.
