Cyngn

Cyngn's technology gives self-driving abilities to industrial vehicles like forklifts, tuggers and stockchasers, letting them make decisions and act autonomously in real time. It's geared for material handling operations, which is why it's a good fit for industries that have a lot of repetitive hauling.

Cyngn's self-driving vehicles can:

• Haul and tow thousands of pounds of payload autonomously
• Use multiple, redundant, and intelligent safety layers
• Be controlled and monitored remotely through the Fleet Management System (FMS) or on-vehicle display
• Run missions based on a variety of flexible, programmable skills
• Capture real-time data to identify opportunities for optimization
• Switch into manual mode and be driven by a human operator

Cyngn's vehicles are based on rugged, proven designs from established original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) such as BYD, Motrec and Columbia. That means the self-driving vehicles are familiar to operate and maintain. The technology can be installed in a matter of days, and no special infrastructure is required.

The company also offers an Autonomous Fleet Management System called Cyngn Insight that's designed to be easy to use. It lets customers plan batches of work, send individual vehicles on special jobs, and monitor fleet activity and utilization remotely.

Cyngn prioritizes workplace safety with features like 360-degree awareness, collision avoidance and communication methods like audio announcements and color-coded LED lighting. Cyngn says its self-driving vehicles have shown a 34% increase in productivity and a 64% reduction in labor costs.

Cyngn hopes its technology will help businesses focus on efficiency, profit and service levels by automating material handling chores. The technology is well suited to a variety of industrial settings where speed, reliability and safety are important.
