Who uses AgileCore? â A platform for three roles
AgileCore targets three discrete users. Each role gets focused tools and responsibilities.
| Role | Description | Primary goal |
|---|---|---|
| Solution Developer | Develops algorithms and advanced skills (vision, control). | Implement new capabilities and integrate models. |
| System Integrator | Deploys and configures automation on the floor. | Rapidly deploy and orchestrate multi-device workflows. |
| Operator | Runs and monitors the system day-to-day. | Operate reliably and maintain uptime. |
Tools are delivered per role to reduce handoffs and eliminate integration friction.
Tailored features
For the Solution Developer
- SDKs and skill interfaces for packaging algorithms as reusable modules.
- Direct integration points for vision models and control stacks.
For the System Integrator
- Drag-and-drop workflow editor enabling complex orchestration without low-level coding.
- Built-in device adapters and communication middleware to shorten commission time.
For the Operator
- Customisable HMIs and dashboards.
- Operational analytics and status alerts for effective monitoring.
These features expose the same abstractions to all roles, reducing translation errors between teams.
Core concepts: reusability and AI
Reusable skills
- Functionality is packaged as self-contained "skills."
- Integrators assemble solutions by composing skills rather than rewriting code.
- Benefit: compounding value. Each project reduces time-to-market for the next.
Deep AI integration
AI is embedded at multiple layers:
- Platform skills â AI-enhanced modules (e.g., vision for small-part detection) replace brittle classical approaches.
- User experience â Natural-language assistants and chat interfaces reduce the need for manual programming.
- Autonomous solutions â End-to-end models can be integrated when full autonomy is required.
The result is shorter development cycles and higher robustness for perception-heavy tasks.
Case study: Robotik Challenge 2025
At ARENA2036 AgileCore enabled the winning solution in the fastest cycle time / economic efficiency category for automotive wire-harness assembly. Key contributions:
- Central connector: unified robots, sensors, and a third-party AGV (BĂR Automation) under one platform â removed bespoke middleware work.
- Advanced vision skills: AI-based detection solved crimp insertion for very small cable ends.
- Synchronized operation: orchestrated parallel, synced motion between two robots for speed and precision.
- Efficiency gains: reusable skills and platform abstractions freed engineering time for process optimization rather than low-level glue code.
This demonstrates how a skill-based, AI-first platform reduces integration cost and improves throughput.
TL;DR
- Single-platform lifecycle management: development â deployment â operations.
- Accelerated innovation: reusable assets compound across projects, lowering TCO.
- Cross-disciplinary collaboration: shared interfaces for vision experts, integrators, and control engineers.
- Open, extensible architecture: integrates third-party hardware and software to future-proof automation.
