Multi-Robot Interoperability

Different brands.
One conversation.

Movel AI's interoperability platform is the universal translator for robots. A MiR AMR, a Unitree quadruped, and a Fetch Robotics cart can all receive coordinated tasks from a single orchestration layer — without any of them knowing the others exist.

// How Interoperability Works

The Movel universal adapter model.

01

Robot Adapter Layer

Each robot brand has a dedicated Movel adapter that translates the robot's proprietary protocol into the Movel universal command schema. Adapters run as microservices — no modification to the robot itself.

02

Open-RMF Middleware / Movel AI Fleet

The Open Robotics Middleware Framework (Open-RMF) provides the standard for multi-robot task management. Movel extends Open-RMF with enterprise-grade reliability, monitoring, and scalability.

03

Unified Orchestration

The FMS orchestration layer sees all robots as interchangeable resources, assigns tasks based on capability and availability, and coordinates them as a single coherent fleet.

// Open-RMF

Movel AI is Open-RMF compliant.

Open-RMF (Open Robotics Middleware Framework) is the open standard for multi-robot interoperability, backed by Open Robotics and used by leading enterprises worldwide. Movel AI is one of the few companies with deep production-proven Open-RMF expertise — deployed across 4 continents.

// ROS Stack Support

ROS 1 and ROS 2 robots — in the same fleet.

Many enterprise fleets are mixed: newer ROS 2 robots operating alongside legacy ROS 1 systems. Movel AI bridges both stacks natively, so you don't have to choose — or migrate everything at once.

// ROS 2 NATIVE

ROS 2 — Recommended for new robots

All new Movel AI deployments default to ROS 2. Our fleet adapters are ROS 2 native, Open-RMF compliant, and leverage DDS for reliable real-time communication across the fleet.

  • ROS 2 Humble / Iron / Jazzy
  • Open-RMF fleet adapter
  • DDS / FastRTPS / Zenoh
  • Nav2 navigation stack
  • Real-time multi-robot coordination
// ROS 1 NATIVE

ROS 1 — Full support for legacy fleets

Running Noetic or Melodic? Movel AI integrates your ROS 1 robots directly into the fleet — no migration required. A ROS 1 ↔ ROS 2 bridge enables mixed-stack coordination from day one.

  • ROS 1 Noetic & Melodic
  • ROS 1 ↔ ROS 2 bridge integration
  • rosbridge WebSocket API
  • move_base & AMCL support
  • Phased migration to ROS 2 available
MIXED FLEET EXAMPLE

A MiR 600 (ROS 2) and a legacy AGV (ROS 1 Noetic) can both receive coordinated tasks from the same Movel FMS instance via the ROS 1 ↔ ROS 2 bridge.

Make your robots speak the same language.
