How Zippy Works
Zippy reads the barcode of each load and relays the information to the central fleet management system. Using 2D LiDAR sensors and grid-based ground markers, it autonomously navigates to the correct sorting point.
With real-time decision-making and on-the-spot turning, Zippy executes accurate SKU-wise sortation at speed—every time.
