Mujin delivers intelligent automation through **MujinOS** — *one software platform to control, orchestrate, and scale all your robots with no code required.* 

By decoupling high-level physical AI decision making from physical machine hardware, MujinOS provides unified, vendor-agnostic control across robotic arms, automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and automated warehouse equipment.

## MujinOS Products & Applications [#products-applications]

### Mujin Robot Controller (Intelligent Autonomous Control) [#robot-controller]

The **Mujin Robot Controller** governs the closed-loop perception and execution of industrial robotic arms through a three-stage real-time pipeline:

</Frame>

**Depalletizing**

High-speed unloading of single-SKU, mixed-SKU, and completely random pallets without pre-registered CAD models.

**Palletizing & Mixed-SKU**

Dynamic pallet generation with automatic pattern optimization and weight distribution.

**Depalletizing to Palletizing**

Direct cross-dock transfer and repalletization without intermediate conveyor or staging buffers.

**Piece Picking**

High-variety each-picking from totes and bins for e-commerce, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

**Bin Picking**

Random bulk part extraction from industrial bins without pre-sorted mechanical feeding.

### Real-Time Digital Twin [#digital-twin]

MujinOS maintains a high-fidelity 3D virtual environment operating in continuous lockstep with live factory hardware.

**Motion Plan Validation**

Verifies kinematic reachability, end-effector collision clearance, and approach trajectory feasibility in the digital twin before physical execution.

**State Synchronization**

Mirrors the physical states of robot arms, pallets, conveyors, and safety interlocks in real time.

**Zero-Downtime Reconfiguration**

Test new box sizes, pack patterns, and cell modifications virtually without taking live production offline.

### Mujin WES (Warehouse Execution System) [#wes]

**Mujin WES** coordinates high-level material flow, inventory allocation, and system-wide order throughput across the facility, translating enterprise orders into real-time task instructions for robot arms and mobile fleets.

**Productivity & Throughput**

Dynamically balances workloads across receiving, buffer storage, and outbound lines to eliminate bottlenecks.

**Inventory & Location**

Tracks real-time pallet locations, SKU slotting, and buffer states without manual inventory reconciliations.

**Order Allocation & Priority**

Automatically schedules high-priority pick orders, dispatching real-time instructions to robotic cells and AGV fleets.

### Mujin Fleet Manager (AGV Fleet Control) [#fleet-manager]

The **Mujin Fleet Manager** directs the coordinated movement of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) alongside fixed material handling systems.

**Optimal Route Planning**

Calculates collision-free and deadlock-free multi-vehicle paths in real time, dynamically navigating traffic congestion and floor obstacles.

**Fleet Control & Dispatch**

Matches mobile robots to transport missions based on battery level, location, and payload capacity.

**Standard Transport Modules**

Supports Inter-process transport, Goods-to-Person (GTP) mobile racks, and automated inbound/outbound storage.

### Mujin Portal & Operational Dashboard [#portal]

MujinOS provides operational dashboards and secure diagnostic tooling for supervisors and maintenance engineers:

**Operational Dashboard**

Live telemetry tracking order progress, equipment productivity, takt time pacing, equipment states (Running/Idle/Fault), location fill rates, and anomaly detection.

**Secure Remote Maintenance**

Encrypted, enterprise-grade connectivity minimizing on-site visits through secure remote telemetry collection, software updates, and engineering support.

## Hardware Appliance: MujinController [#mujincontroller]

While MujinOS provides the intelligence software layer (autonomous planning and perception), the ruggedized **MujinController** cabinet delivers deterministic physical execution on the factory floor:

**Industrial Real-Time Execution**

Sub-millisecond deterministic Linux computing nodes executing joint-level trajectories with ultra-low jitter.

**Certified Functional Safety**

Category 3 PLd safety architecture (ISO 13849-1 / IEC 62061) and UL 61010 certification with hardware emergency stop interlocks and safety light curtains.

**Industrial Fieldbus Integration**

Native master/slave connectivity for **EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, Modbus TCP**, and high-density digital/analog I/O.

**Ruggedized Enclosure**

Industrial thermal management, vibration damping, and EMC electromagnetic noise immunity built for 24/7 harsh industrial operations.

---

## Vendor-Agnostic Equipment Control [#equipment-control]

MujinOS integrates directly with any automated equipment on the factory floor, breaking free from proprietary vendor lock-in:

**Material Handling Equipment**

Seamlessly interfaces with Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (**AS/RS**), high-speed **conveyors**, **IoT devices**, and **mobile barcode/RFID scanners**.

**Multi-Vendor Robot Arms**

Directly controls robot arms from **Fanuc, Yaskawa, ABB, Kawasaki, and KUKA**, complete with tool changers, mechanical/vacuum **grippers**, and **2D/3D vision sensors**.

**Mobile Transport Systems**

Coordinates fleets of Automated Guided Vehicles (**AGV**) and **pallet shuttle systems** through standardized dispatch protocols, integrating seamlessly with robot cells and automated warehouses.
