Mobile Industrial Robots

Teradyne's subsidiary Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR) deployed the MiR1200 Pallet Jack, an autonomous mobile robot that uses AI-based pallet detection to identify, pick up, and deliver pallets in factories and warehouses without human guidance. The robot was launched in March 2024 and is sold to industrial customers globally.

The MiR1200 Pallet Jack is powered by an NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin module and was trained on more than 1.2 million real and synthetic images. It combines data from four RGBD cameras and 3D LiDAR to detect pallets and obstacles in real time, enabling fully autonomous navigation in dynamic environments. The AI system allows the robot to dynamically modify its route to avoid obstacles such as loose objects or overhead hazards. The product is generally available and integrates with MiR's Fleet management software.

Teradyne's subsidiary Mobile Industrial Robots offers MiR Insights, a cloud-based fleet analytics platform that includes an AI Search feature powered by large language models, letting robot fleet operators ask questions in plain language to troubleshoot problems, access documentation, and optimize robot performance. This feature was previewed in May 2024 and confirmed active as of 2025.

The AI Search component of MiR Insights uses large language models to let operators interact with MiR knowledge bases and their own robot fleet data conversationally — without needing to know exact database terms. Users can ask follow-up questions and receive tailored answers for troubleshooting and optimization. The broader MiR Insights platform also includes performance dashboards, heatmaps, time-series analysis, and network connectivity monitoring. It is fully compatible with MiR Fleet Enterprise and stores data in the cloud.
