Messina’s career in terrestrial and aerial robotics spans more than twenty years. Several of his projects have graduated from “zero to one”; he has overseen production exceeding 500,000 units in the drone, AGV, and AMR verticals.
Messina comments: “The supply chain industry is under constant pressure to operate more efficiently. Digital insight platforms like Fling.AI have become a necessity for large warehouses to stay competitive, not only in terms of operating efficiency, but also to achieve the high levels of accountability and accuracy that global brands expect.”
Fling.AI’s pure SaaS platform works with off-the-shelf drones and cameras to autonomously reconstruct the physical environment of the warehouse, identifying pallets, and comparing this information with a Warehouse Management System (WMS) to identify any variance. Using Generative AI, a sophisticated virtual model is materialised and segmented into each location of the warehouse. The resulting model conveys accurate inventory levels and actionable insights, enabling relevant, rapid, and secure supply chain visibility.
