About Unikie

Unikie develops embedded software and autonomous-operations systems for automotive, industrial, defence and connected-device customers. Its robotics-facing work centres on the Unikie Marshalling Solution, which coordinates driverless movement of cars, buses, trucks and specialist vehicles inside factories, ports, depots, logistics yards and other gated sites.

The system plans and controls multiple vehicles in real time using standardised vehicle interfaces, wireless links, infrastructure cameras, lidar and radar, sensor fusion, edge computing and machine vision. It integrates with production, depot and charging systems to schedule parking, cleaning, maintenance and energy tasks. Deployments and validations include Ford manufacturing operations, Scania bus-depot work, Volkswagen Group Logistics at Emden seaport and automated log transport with Mantsinen.
