Hello. Mr. Bonifacio, would you mind starting with a short introduction of your company?
[Filippo]
Certainly. We are AME, an Italian company based in Florence. Our specialty lies in active safety solutions, particularly in collision avoidance systems for various industries.
[Aleksandra]
Great, thank you. And can you tell us a bit more about how AME is further enhancing safety standards and complex work environments with Amesphere Vista and Amesphere One and what specific challenges these products address?
[Filippo]
Absolutely. Amesphere Vista represents a significant leap forward in innovation for our systems. Traditionally, our solutions focus on tag-based collision avoidance for trucks. However, with Amesphere Vista, we've integrated AI camera technology, essentially giving our system 'eyes and ears.' To our knowledge, this integration sets us apart as the only system on the market offering such a comprehensive solution.
This integration offers numerous advantages over competitors. It opens up new features and opportunities by combining these technologies. As a result, we're proud to offer our customers a truly unique solution for collision avoidance between truck-to-truck and truck-to-pedestrian.
Amesphere One, another product in our lineup, is tailored for small electric pallet trucks. These trucks often have long forks, posing a challenge for traditional detection systems. However, Amesphere One is an all-in-one solution, integrating the sensor and user interface into a single unit. This allows us to precisely shape the detection range to match the unique dimensions of pallet trucks, ensuring optimal safety.

The Amesphere ecosystem provides real-time data and actionable insights through a cloud platform. Could you elaborate on how this data can be utilized to enhance safety, efficiency and productivity in work environments?
[Filippo]
Our sensors not only mitigate collision risks in the workplace but also gather extensive environmental data. This data collection is crucial for understanding the operational environment. However, our recent innovation, showcased at LogiMAT, marks a significant shift. We're now leveraging this data to provide actionable insights to our customers in real-time.
Previously, we merely directed customers to their data on the platform, which wasn't the most effective service. Now, with advanced algorithms, we sift through this wealth of data to deliver tailored notifications. These notifications highlight relevant safety and efficiency information directly to our customers.
For instance, we can now provide insights into potential hazards in the workplace, enabling proactive safety measures. This shift represents a monumental leap in enhancing efficiency, safety, and productivity in work environments.
[Aleksandra]
You've already presented a big innovation at LogiMAT 2024. What is AME's vision for the future of workplace safety? And how will the innovations like Amesphere Vista and Amesphere One contribute to bringing this vision to life?
[Filippo]
In the future, we believe that our service-oriented approach will prove invaluable. As our sensors continue to amass vast amounts of data, the ability to extract actionable insights from this data will be paramount. This capability will set us apart. We envision a future where our systems provide detailed information about high-risk areas, such as forklift traffic patterns in particularly hazardous zones. Moreover, our systems will have the intelligence to adjust operations automatically based on this information.
Furthermore, we aim to measure the effectiveness of any procedural or layout changes made in response to these insights. This iterative process of data-driven optimization represents the future of workplace safety and efficiency.
[Aleksandra]
All right, thank you. And considering the showcase of Amesphere Vista and Amesphere One at the LogiMAT 2024, could you elaborate on the anticipated impact of these new products on the logistics and warehouse industry specifically and how they are poised to revolutionize safety measures in these environments?
[Filippo]
We believe that our new products will enable us to tap into previously inaccessible market sectors. Specifically, we anticipate addressing the needs of small electric pallet trucks and mass distribution markets, which have been challenging to serve with existing products. The current systems struggle to deliver the necessary functionality for these sectors. With our innovations, we aim to shift the market focus from hardware sales to service-based solutions. This transition will offer customers the essential information they require to receive tailored services, ultimately transforming the industry landscape.
[Aleksandra]
All right. Thank you. And that will also conclude our interview for today.
Thank you very much for your insight and for your time.
[Filippo]
Okay. Thank you. Thank you so much.
