MODEX 2026 Recap: Powered by Data, Driven by Community

Mike Allen, AIM Global

This week at MODEX 2026 in Atlanta, I had the opportunity to spend time walking the show floor, reconnecting with many AIM members, meeting new industry professionals, and seeing firsthand where the material handling and supply chain market is headed. One of the highlights for me was stopping by member booths throughout the week to chat, catch up on what they are working on, and record short videos that we have been sharing on AIM’s social media channels. It was a great way to spotlight the innovation our members are driving while also giving others a look at the people and technologies helping shape the future of supply chain execution.

Unified Locating as the Key to Physical AI Creating a Common Language for Spatial Intelligence

Tuesday, May 12 at 10am EDT

 

Through the joint formation of the GPos Experts Group, this collaboration brings together identification, locating, and communication in a common spatial context. Industrial automation is facing a paradigm shift: machines, robots, and mobile systems are learning to “understand” space. With the new OPC UA Companion Specification for Identification and Locating, a common language of “spatial intelligence” was established. The new specification is considered a milestone for the next evolutionary stage of industrial intelligence.
