Aetina and Anantak Transform Warehouse Operations with Autonomous VGVs

April 15, 2026

Warehouse operations are overdue for digital reinvention. On top of industry-wide labor shortages, legacy material-handling techniques like conveyor belts and manual transport limit productivity and flexibility. It’s no surprise that analysts predict the global warehouse automation market will grow to over $119B by 2034, with the automated guided vehicle (AGV) market alone expected to see a CAGR of 11.4% between 2024 and 2033.

Embedded AI Isn’t Enterprise AI, and That’s a Good Thing

Rich Nass

April 13, 2026

If you listen to the mainstream AI conversation, you might assume that every meaningful deployment requires racks of GPUs, enormous training datasets, and a Cloud energy budget that could power a small city. That perception comes largely from the enterprise AI world. Large language models, enterprise analytics platforms, and recommendation engines dominate the headlines.
