SAN DIEGO — Brain Corp, a leader in robotics and AI technology, announced that its fleet of over 37,000 autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) powered by the BrainOS® Robotics Platform has now autonomously covered more than 250 billion square feet worldwide. This achievement underscores the accelerating global shift towards automation across industries such as retail, warehousing, education, and airports.
To put the scale into perspective, 250 billion square feet is roughly equivalent to covering New York City’s landmass 30 times or more than 4 million football fields. The fleet has also logged over 19 million hours of autonomous operation, equal to more than 2,100 years of continuous use.
David Pinn, CEO of Brain Corp, highlighted the significance of this milestone:
“This accomplishment reflects not only Brain Corp’s success but also the broader adoption of automation to address labor shortages, rising operational demands, and sustainability goals. Our robotic solutions empower organizations to optimize processes, enhance customer and employee experiences, and drive meaningful operational improvements.”
AMRs Transforming Industries
BrainOS®-powered robots have seen rapid growth in utilization across diverse industries. Comparing Q3 2022 to Q3 2024, the data reveals significant increases in daily usage:
- Warehousing/Industrial: +340%
- Education: +123%
- Airports: +91%
- Retail: +53%
- Malls: +16%
These figures demonstrate the growing reliance on AMRs to streamline workflows, increase productivity, and manage repetitive tasks. Brain Corp’s tools, such as BrainOS® Sense Suite and Clean Suite, automate essential functions like inventory management and floor care, enabling employees to focus on higher-value activities.
Crowdsourced Learning Driving Innovation
The extensive dataset generated by Brain Corp’s fleet enables continuous improvement through crowdsourced learning. Each robot’s experience contributes to optimizing the entire fleet, ensuring faster adaptation to real-world challenges.
Jarad Cannon, CTO of Brain Corp, emphasized the value of this approach:
“The scale of data collected by our fleet not only reflects the enormity of what we’ve accomplished but also fuels innovation. This ensures we continually refine our technology to deliver even greater value to our customers.”
