10 Companies around the World Collaborate to Showcase Robot Orchestration at Automate 2026

The industry's first live demonstration of federated robot orchestration, staged with A3 at Automate 2026 and powered by InOrbit Space Intelligence™

The automation paradox, solved

As enterprises deploy more robots, complexity grows faster than productivity. Separate fleet management systems, incompatible protocols, and siloed data turn every new robot into another island of automation. This demonstration shows the way out: an orchestration layer that sits above individual vendor systems and translates business intent into coordinated physical execution.

What you'll see in the demo

Robots from Ati Robotics, Kärcher, Neura Robotics, Omron, Peer Robotics, Quasi Robotics, and Unitree, spanning humanoids, quadrupeds, AMRs, collaborative robots, and autonomous cleaning, execute complex missions together in a shared space. InOrbit Space Intelligence dispatches tasks from enterprise systems like WMS, ERP, and MES, manages traffic across heterogeneous fleets, and gives operators one unified view of the entire operation.

The demo goes beyond autonomous robots. Manual vehicles are tracked in real time using RTLS technology from Slamcore and Guide Robotics, integrated with InOrbit Space Intelligence. That brings the collaboration to ten companies in total, including InOrbit.AI, and extends orchestration to every asset on the floor, whether autonomous or human-driven.

You'll also see the InOrbit RobOps Copilot™ in action: an Agentic AI overlay that lets operations teams direct the entire operation in natural language, including voice commands. Instead of juggling multiple vendor dashboards, operators define robot behavior, trigger missions, analyze performance, and generate reports by simply stating their intent.

Built on open standards

The demonstration serves as a practical reference for ISO 21423, the upcoming interoperability standard that defines a common communication framework for robots, fleet managers, and enterprise systems from different vendors. Where earlier standards focused on centralized control, ISO 21423 embraces the federated orchestration architecture pioneered by InOrbit.AI, in which multiple fleet managers and robots coexist and coordinate.

"Enterprises are facing the automation paradox: as they deploy robots at scale, complexity increases, preventing them from achieving agility. Today, we are demonstrating the future of the sentient enterprise in action, bridging the gap between business intent and physical execution with partners from around the world."
Florian Pestoni, Founder/CEO, InOrbit.AI

The InOrbit Connect ecosystem already supports 30+ robot brands. Whatever fleet you run today, and whatever you add tomorrow, InOrbit.AI can orchestrate it.
