Fellow AI deploys robotics systems at Actapio, a datacenter operations subsidiary of Yahoo Japan.

Fellow AI has signed a deployment contract with datacenter leader Actapio to deploy FellowAudit™, a state-of-the-art 3D mapping and precise asset tracking solution. Announced on December 17, 2020, this partnership brings advanced robotics and AI capabilities to datacenter operations. FellowAudit™ utilizes the latest 3D lidar to generate accurate, large-scale 3D maps of datacenters and large facilities that can be further processed into 2D layout maps.

The core of FellowAudit™ is the cutting-edge SmartTrace™ algorithm, which intelligently combines the 3D map with data from multiple RFID antennas and/or RGB cameras to provide precise 3D micro-location of thousands of assets with up to 5 inches of accuracy. This integrated approach enables Actapio to map and audit datacenters frequently while precisely locating all assets in a 3D map. Audit data is accessible in real-time through an integrated and intuitive web-based dashboard that helps visualize key insights and drive efficiency, with all assets fully searchable in the full 3D map.

Norifumi Matsuya, CEO of Actapio, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership: "We are excited to partner with Fellow AI to constantly map and scan our assets in datacenters. The digitalization of datacenters will be a game changer in the coming years as it will allow datacenters to optimize operations while having a real time view of all assets and their precise location." Marco Mascorro, CEO of Fellow AI, added: "By partnering with Actapio, Fellow AI expands the deployment of our integrated technology solutions in the rapidly growing cloud computing and datacenter industry."

Actapio, a U.S. subsidiary of Yahoo Japan Corporation, is a leading developer of modern datacenters and is consistently at the cutting-edge of the large-scale deployment of OCP. Fellow AI is at the forefront of digitizing warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and datacenters, pioneering artificial intelligence, cutting-edge robotics, and related technologies used by some of the largest companies in the world to solve supply chain, logistics, and operational challenges.
