Waypoint Robotics Makes Their Debut in Merrimack

MERRIMACK, NH - Waypoint Robotics, a Merrimack-based robotics company announced their debut last month. According to a release from Waypoint, the company builds turnkey autonomous mobile robots for real-world applications.

Formerly known as Stanley Robotics — Waypoint’s flagship mobile robot — Vector — is a compact, ROS native, omni-directional, mobile robot; perfect for the laboratory or factory floor. Vector comes fully equipped and ready for use — a truly turnkey autonomous robot.

The company has also launched its “Waypoint Whistle”, which it describes as “a common sense robot controller that empowers today’s workforce by putting a robot at their beck and call”.

Jason Walker, CEO and Co-Founder of Waypoint Robotics, said the company will continue to follow the same culture and standards of innovation, manufacturing excellence, customer service, and dedication to employees as the companies from which they spun off — Stanley Innovation and Stanley Elevator.

“At Waypoint, we are laser-focused on developing autonomous mobile robots that are accessible to everyone who needs them,” said Walker. “In the USA, only about 10% of the companies that could be helped by automation are taking advantage of the technology. With the pressures of the global economy and the tightening labor market, small businesses must automate to survive. Our goal is to make robots that are technologically and financially accessible to small and large businesses alike.”
