Tennant forms partnership with AI company Brain
10th of May 2018
Brain Corp, a US-based AI company specialising in the development of self-driving technology for robots, has established a relationship with cleaning solutions specialist Tennant Company through its North American headquarters.
Brain's proprietary AI robotic technology software platform, BrainOS, automates commercial equipment, including floor care machines. This means Tennant will introduce autonomous cleaning machines, initally to its customers in North America and then in global markets.
The first Tennant product powered by the BrainOS AI robotic technology will be its T7 Micro-Rider scrubber dryer.
"By incorporating Brain's operating system into our commercial cleaning line of products, we can offer the advanced technology and innovation that customers value in Tennant products," commented Chris Killingstad, president and ceo of Tennant Company.
BrainOS is the foundation of Brain's platform technology. It is a proprietary operating system that integrates with off-the-shelf hardware and sensors to provide a cost-effective "brain" for robots. It plays the same role as Android OS plays for smartphones, but also includes computer vision and AI libraries that provide advanced self-driving capabilities for cluttered and dynamic indoor and outdoor environments.
