Connectivity that keeps your robots always on
Autonomous robots are only as powerful as the network they run on. Com4 delivers secure, global, and resilient IoT connectivity built specifically for the demands of modern robotics.
Robots are advanced IoT devices. They need connectivity to match.
Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are transforming how the world works: from crop harvesting and aircraft inspection to automated medicine distribution and industrial monitoring.
These machines send vast streams of sensor data to the cloud for real-time processing, require reliable over-the-air firmware updates, and depend on remote diagnostics to stay operational. Without robust wireless connectivity, they simply cannot function.
The integration of IoT and industrial robotics is called the Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT). Com4 is built for it.

Remora Robotics
How AI-powered underwater robots are transforming fish farming, and why connectivity is at the heart of it.
Salmon and other fish species are farmed in net pens along Norway's coastline. These nets require regular cleaning to allow oxygen-rich seawater to flow through and maintain fish health.
Remora developed an autonomous underwater robot (essentially a vacuum cleaner for fish pens) connected via power and communication cables to a unit mounted on the pen fence above water. The robot cleans gently and without emissions, and learns from every job through AI to continuously refine its technique.
