Fraunhofer Institute for Material Flow and Logistics IML is the leading research institute in the field of automated guided vehicles and autonomous mobile robots for logistics. In numerous nationally and internationally funded research projects as well as in industrial projects, our researchers develop solutions based on latest and most advanced technologies and processes for robotics and define their benefits for logistics. In recent years, interdisciplinary teams have developed new disruptive generations of mobile robots, starting with the LoadRunner® which set a global milestone in both parcel sorting and swarm robotics, to the evoBOT®, which already points to the future of industrial robotics.
The evoBOT® is highly agile and flexible. As a modular system, the areas of application for this collaborative robot extend beyond current logistics contexts into complex urban spaces. While previous solutions have been limited to performing simple tasks such as transporting logistics goods, the evoBOT® goes one step further. Its enhancements include the ability to hand over and manipulate objects and load carriers at variable heights. In addition, different gripping concepts can be applied while maintaining the same robot base. To lower the inhibition threshold while interacting with humans a focus has been set on anthropomorph characteristics.
Cooperation in development and industrialization are essential to our work. Visit us and the evoBOT® in action at ERF 2026 to discuss future robotics.

Stavanger Kommune
Stavanger is the third largest city and third largest metropolitan area in Norway. The city’s population rapidly grew in the late 20th century due to its oil industry. Stavanger is known today as the Oil Capital of Norway. Norwegian energy company Equinor, the largest company in the Nordic region, has its headquarters in Stavanger.
Located on the Stavanger Peninsula in southwest Norway, Stavanger counts its official founding year as 1125, the year the Stavanger Cathedral was completed. Stavanger’s core is to a large degree 18th- and 19th-century wooden houses that are protected and considered part of the city’s cultural heritage. This has caused the town center and inner city to retain a small-town character with an unusually high ratio of detached houses and has contributed significantly to spreading the city’s population growth to outlying parts of Greater Stavanger.
Multiple educational institutions for higher education are located in Stavanger. The largest of these is the University of Stavanger.
