Wheel.me
Pioneering Next-Generation Mobility Solutions

The invention of the wheel was one of the groundbreaking innovations that revolutionized society. It empowered us to move the immovable, steering the course of history and instigating novel paradigms of thought.

Inspired by this visionary notion, a new idea took shape in logistics and culminated in the inception of wheel.me Genius 2 – the world’s first autonomous wheel. Comprising robotic components, indoor navigation technology, and data analytics, it can turn any object into an AMR with minimal effort, without altering design or form. The clients can put the wheels on any object to make it an AMR, which will be able to move from point A to point B based on the mission parameters given to it.

“We have not merely redesigned the wheel; we have redefined what the wheel can do. Our commitment to affordability, adaptability, and cuttingedge technology will help us foster a culture of innovation and unlimited possibilities,” says Stefan Holländer, CEO of wheel. me.

The wheel.me Genius 2 harnesses the power of autonomous technology to propel the ‘wheel’ into a new era, facilitating not only the movement of objects we are accustomed to, but also the transportation of items previously deemed immovable.

The solution’s presence in the market is underscored by its ability to exceed client expectations. wheel.me has achieved a remarkable price point that challenges conventional norms, offering unparalleled value. The AMRs facilitated by wheel.me Genius 2 simplify warehouse material handling and inventory management and optimize workflow in factories and assembly lines. Besides logistics, this innovative technology has major implications in advanced manufacturing and healthcare industries.

The AMRs are controlled by an app, which can be used to set up missions (from A to B) and have an overview of entire operations. The advanced navigational algorithms and proximity sensors, with real-time monitoring, intelligent route planning, and rapid response capabilities, ensure a smooth logistics flow throughout the operation.

The dynamic obstacle detection and omnidirectional movement of the mecanum wheels allow the AMRs to move in any direction without changing their orientation.

Along with cutting operational expenses, wheel.me Genius 2 elevates safety during operations. The AMRs collaborate with human employees. As they navigate, they constantly scan their surroundings, detecting potential environmental obstacles or changes. If a human worker inadvertently steps into their pathor a new obstacle emerges, the AMRs swiftly adapt their routes to avoid collisions, reducing the chances of accidents or mishaps.

Within the logistics industry, the role of robots has transcended mere automation; they have become versatile and human-friendly partners, revolutionizing tasks ranging from physically demanding material transport within facilities to enhancing production efficiency.

In early 2022, wheel.me forged a strategic partnership with a leading global logistics provider, operating in around 2100 locations worldwide. With a strong commitment to innovation and a pressing need to streamline operations, this logistics giant embarked on a mission to enhance efficiency and reduce costs through automation. Their goal was to introduce approximately 440 robots into two warehouses located in Europe.

As of 2023, substantial progress has been made, with 28 robots successfully commissioned and operational at one of their European warehouse sites. The company has set its sights on deploying the remaining robots during the third and fourth quarters of 2023.

This ambitious undertaking not only involves the deployment of robots but also demands seamless integration with other automated machinery. This integrated approach is a testament to its commitment to logistical excellence.

By combining advanced technology and intelligent design with a steadfast commitment to customer satisfaction, the company is on a journey to empower businesses worldwide with its AMR technology.

Through relentless innovation and collaborative partnerships, wheel.me aspires to shape a future where automation drives remarkable growth and generates a positive impact on the logistics and warehousing space.
