Technology Validation / PoC

TECH VALIDATION / PoC

Validate Before Deployment,
Scale After Validation

Robowink’s PoC is not a simple demonstration. It is a technology-validation process that checks AMR operating conditions and the applicability of intelligent safety technologies in real environments.

The PoC reflects real site conditions, including travel routes, movement of workers, carts and forklifts, sensor installation position, network conditions, and control interfaces. Collected logs and test results are then used to define the deployment scope and improvement items.

PoC Principle
We do not stop at demonstrating functionality. Test conditions, data, results, and limitations are documented together and used as evidence for the next deployment decision.

VALIDATION SCOPE

What We Validate

AMR operation and the DVS+SNN-based Safety Assist function are validated separately, followed by system-level integration validation.

01
AMR OPERATION

AMR Operation Validation

We verify route feasibility, bottleneck areas, turning and stopping space, and repeated-operation conditions on the actual route.

  • Route and aisle conditions
  • Stop and avoidance operation logs
  • Operational-scenario suitability
02
EVENT SENSING

DVS Event Validation

We verify event-data quality and sensor-installation conditions in areas with frequent motion.

  • Event-generation stability
  • Noise and ROI characteristics
  • Installation height, angle, and field of view
03
SNN INFERENCE

SNN Risk-Perception Validation

We evaluate approach-situation classification and decision stability using event patterns that change over time.

  • Approach-pattern classification
  • False-positive / missed-detection analysis
  • Inference latency and stability
04
SYSTEM INTEGRATION

System Integration Validation

We verify that perception results integrate as assistive information without conflicting with the AMR’s existing navigation and safety systems.

  • Control-interface integration
  • State and event-log synchronization
  • Clear separation of roles from existing safety devices

FIELD TEST SCENARIOS

We Define Field Conditions as Repeatable Test Scenarios

Instead of a one-time demonstration, we define repeatable test conditions and compare results under the same conditions.

01

Normal Operation

Establish baseline logs and normal-state behavior during unobstructed operation.

02

Side Entry

Observe event changes when a worker or cart enters from the side.

03

Frontal Approach

Compare perception and decision logs according to approach direction and relative motion changes.

04

Cross Traffic

Evaluate perception stability in complex situations where multiple moving objects cross paths.

05

Occlusion & Congestion

Analyze error characteristics when objects are partially occluded or event density becomes concentrated.

EVALUATION ITEMS

Results Are Evaluated with Logs and Metrics

Specific acceptance criteria are defined according to the site and PoC scope, with measurements centered on the following items.

01

Perception Performance

Classification accuracy, false positives / missed detections, and result distribution by scenario

02

Response Time

Latency from sensor input to decision and interface output

03

Stability

Result consistency and system status during repeated tests and long-duration operation

04

Site Compatibility

Suitability of sensor position, field of view, communications, routes, and integration with the existing AMR

PoC PROCESS

Technology Validation Process

We define site requirements first, agree on test scenarios and evaluation methods, and then proceed with the PoC.

01

Requirements Definition

Define the target process, routes, problem situations, and target KPIs

02

Site Survey

Check aisles, sensor installation, network, and safety conditions

03

Test Design

Define the PoC configuration and repeatable test scenarios

04

Field Validation

Collect data, event, and state logs under actual operating conditions

05

Analysis & Tuning

Analyze failure cases and adjust thresholds, models, and installation conditions

06

Final Report

Document validation results, limitations, and deployment / scale-up recommendations

PoC DELIVERABLES

PoC Deliverables

To support a deployment decision, we provide deliverables that include test conditions and data rather than only demonstration results.
