About Onward Robotics

Onward Robotics builds person-to-goods fulfilment systems around Lumabot autonomous mobile robots and the Pyxis software suite. Pyxis integrates with a warehouse-management system, groups and prioritises orders, and independently routes workers and robots so they meet at the selected pick location. A mobile application gives the associate the location, item and quantity, while lights on the robot indicate the correct tote.

Lumabot carries configurable shelving with payloads up to 460 pounds and uses hot-swappable batteries for more than 20 hours of operation. After picking, robots deliver completed totes to pack-out while Pyxis reallocates people and machines as priorities change. Hub dashboards expose order progress, robot state and workforce performance. The Meet Me system can be purchased as equipment or subscribed to as Robots as a Service, letting warehouses deploy the combined hardware and orchestration layer without adding fixed automation infrastructure.
