About Proxima Robotics
Proxima Robotics develops Compass, a modular autonomy stack that mobile-robot manufacturers install on new or existing vehicles. Docker containers running on an Ubuntu industrial PC provide natural-SLAM mapping, lidar-based localisation, mission execution, obstacle avoidance, precision docking, operator interfaces and fleet connectivity for differential, omnidirectional and car-like platforms.
Compass communicates with vehicle hardware and higher-level systems through Ethernet, ROS 2, OPC UA and REST interfaces, with VDA 5050 compatibility planned for fleet integration. Licence tiers range from mapping and localisation to mission management, remote monitoring and reporting. Proxima also helps OEMs select sensors and actuators, define kinematics, integrate PLCs and safety systems, commission the robot and tune navigation for production use.

Timeline
Events
- 2024-09-19 - Capability - Proxima Robotics details navigation collaboration for Sinteco pharmacy-logistics AMRs
Eureka described four customised AMRs for the first pilot application in Sinteco’s showroom. Eureka’s NAVARCO fleet manager receives transport missions from Sinteco’s Athena system through REST APIs. The robots can release, identify and reattach the therapy drawers so that staff can also move them manually.

A no-code web interface configures the software for integration with robot hardware. Mission assignment uses robot and machinery status, with support for fleets containing different robot brands. The company described professional cleaning work and preliminary agricultural-robot tests alongside logistics and manufacturing applications.
