Phantom Auto has been selected as one of four finalists for the MHI Best New Product Innovation Award! MHI, the largest material handling & supply chain trade association, asked independent expert judges to review 121 submissions and select four finalists across three award categories: Best New Innovation; Best Innovation of an Existing Product; and Best IT Innovation. All submissions were reviewed and judged based on the concept, value, and impact the technology has.
The MHI Innovation Award serves to educate and provide valuable insights on the latest manufacturing and supply chain products and services to MODEX attendees. MODEX 2022 exhibitors were called to submit a new product, product line, technology or service, or new application of existing products or technology that creates quantifiable and sustainable results in terms of ROI, cost savings, and customer satisfaction.
We're honored to be finalists alongside Boston Dynamics, Exotec, and Beckhoff Automation in the Best New Product category for Phantom's remote operation platform for logistics. By decoupling labor from location, Phantom’s remote operation platform increases labor access and retention, safety, productivity, and resilience across the supply chain. Remote operators, also referred to as digital drivers, can "teleport" between different vehicles and between different warehouses with the click of a button, all from the safety of a distant office. Phantom’s software provides remote operators with real-time eyes and ears all around each vehicle, enabling them to safely and confidently guide the vehicles from wherever is convenient.
On Monday, March 28, 2022, all finalists will make an in-booth presentation to a panel of judges live at MODEX 2022. The winners will be announced on March 30th during MHI Industry Night with Preacher Lawson in the Thomas Murphy Ballroom on Level 5 of the GWCC.
If you'll be attending MODEX, please reach out to schedule a meeting or drop by to see us at booth B4428!
