Payback Period"Cyngn’s self-driving tugger was the perfect solution to support our strategy of advancing automation and incorporating scalable technology seamlessly into our operations. With its high load capacity, we can concentrate on increasing our ability to manage heavier components and bulk orders, driving greater efficiency, reducing costs, and accelerating delivery timelines."

Continuous Improvement & Quality Manager
DriveMod Tuggers never take a vacation, don't make human errors, and always get the job done.
We've partnered with Motrec, a trusted industrial vehicle manufacturer, to integrate DriveMod into their fleet of heavy-duty tuggers to transform them into intelligent self-driving robots. This makes our autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) familiar to operate and a breeze to maintain.

Collision Avoidance System
We offer multiple layers of safety. Virtual bumper doubles the number of safety systems, and our 3D lidar brings 360° visibility and vigilance to obstructions.

Safety Lights & Audio Cues
Color-coded LEDs communicate vehicle status and intent. Audible cues like beeps and horn honks indicate when the vehicle is turning, departing, or arriving at a stop.

Emergency Stop Buttons
While we enable you to program and control the vehicle remotely, our units come equipped with multiple E-Stop buttons to instantly bring the vehicle to a halt.
Launch Within Days — Seriously!
Our vehicles follow speed limits, safety precautions, and rules of the road that your team follows. With no special navigational infrastructure or magnetic strips to install, we can get our DriveMod Tuggers operating in your facility in a matter of days.

Key Difference Between AMRs & AGVs is Technological Sophistication
There is a broad spectrum of sophistication within the autonomous vehicle market and it's important to understand the differences. AMR technology represents an evolution in mobile robotics which is why Cyngn's vehicles are more flexible and intelligent than traditional AGVs.
