Podcast Episode
Automation works best when the work is predictable, but real-world operations rarely are. In this episode of MHI Cast, Dan Garcia of TGW Logistics North America and Nate Richter of Packsize explore how warehouses can prepare for oversized products, changing order profiles, demand spikes, and other exceptions that fall outside the standard automation flow. They discuss designing for variability, using data to identify the exceptions that matter most, the role of integration partners, and why the smartest strategy isn’t automating every exception — it’s knowing which ones are worth solving.

Combining real-world autonomous robotics expertise with NVIDIA Halos safety platform supports Dexory’s safe deployment of physical AI in industrial environmentsLondon, UK, 21 October 2026 - Dexory, the warehouse data intelligence company behind DexoryView, today announced it is testing next generation capabilities with NVIDIA Halos safety platform for physical AI.NVIDIA Halos unifies real-time AI, functional safety and edge computing with NVIDIA IGX Thor to engineer robotics safety across every layer of design. These capabilities are critical in the environments where Dexory’s autonomous robots already operate 24/7 alongside people, forklifts and other equipment across warehouses, manufacturing and logistics sites.Drawing on this operational experience, Dexory brings deep expertise in the functional operation of autonomous mobile robots in complex indoor environments, already deploying with NVIDIA Cosmos for warehouse inventory intelligence.Now, Dexory is exploring Halos safety stack to build a single-board architecture that will improve safe autonomy and expand perception capabilities for inside-out safety. Dexory is planning to roll out the technology across its fleet deployed worldwide.“Our robots operate every day in highly dynamic environments giving us a unique perspective on what safe autonomy requires in the real world,” said Andrei Danescu, CEO and Co-Founder of Dexory. “By collaborating with NVIDIA Halos for our autonomous robots, we’re combining that operational experience with NVIDIA’s leadership in AI computing and functional safety to help advance the safe, reliable deployment of physical AI at industrial scale.”This work comes as physical AI plays an increasingly important role in warehouse and industrial operations. As autonomous systems become more capable and operate more closely alongside people and machinery, robust safety architectures will be critical to deploying these technologies at scale.About DexoryDexory provides the intelligence layer for global warehousing. Its platform, DexoryView, turns the physical reality of a warehouse, including inventory, space and movement, into a live, accurate picture that operations teams can act on. It replaces the outdated snapshots and manual reporting most warehouses still run on.Dexory captures this ground-truth data through autonomous robots and digital twin technology, surfacing risks, opportunities and evidence-based recommendations grounded in what's actually happening on site. Dexory designs and builds this full stack solution itself, from data capture through to analysis, so customers get one system they can trust for data quality, performance and reliability, rather than stitching together insights from disconnected tools.Dexory's technology is used by global logistics providers including GXO, DHL and NFI, as well as manufacturers such as Stellantis, Samsung and GE Appliances, alongside customers across retail, pharmaceuticals and eCommerce.
