Northstar Robotics (Northstar) today announces the launch of its partner program designed to accelerate autonomous innovation for industrial sectors, including snow removal, agriculture and turf management. The company has developed a complete platform for autonomous technology that is currently in use at a major international airport, and is now working with partners to deploy its technology across multiple industries.
According to Shawn Schaerer, Chief Executive Officer of Northstar, the timing was right for this launch. “Facing rising costs and a general shortage of skilled labor, industrial customers are demanding greater productivity without sacrificing safety,” said Schaerer. “With our proven platform and deep domain expertise, we are able to cost-effectively help partners accelerate their autonomous programs.”
The Northstar autonomous vehicle platform offers industry-leading safety, security and innovation. Key features include:
Northstar has partnered with Airport Technologies, Inc. (ATI) for the development and deployment of autonomous snow removal machines. “We have been extremely impressed with both the team and technology at Northstar,” said Brendon Smith, President, ATI. “We look forward to deploying more world-class autonomous solutions with them in the future.”
Northstar, a recent graduate of the Blackberry QNX/L-SPARK accelerator program, is also collaborating with partners in the agricultural sector for the development of new autonomous capabilities. For more information, visit northstar-robotics.com.
