Dane AiR™ DC
Automate cycle counting and validate inventory at scale
Automate cycle counting
Manual cycle counts are slow, inconsistent, and resource-intensive. AiR™ DC automates inventory scanning—reaching barcodes up to 38 feet high with Cognex-powered precision—to deliver real-time inventory visibility enabling more accurate stock levels across your warehouse.
Navigate Busy DCs with Confidence
Busy DCs can make manual audits unreliable. AiR™ DC uses BrainOS® autonomy, and advanced computer vision and 3D LiDAR to safely and intelligently navigate busy warehouses, dynamically avoiding obstacles and people. This ensures that inventory scans are completed reliably, without interruption.
Seamlessy Sync Inventory Data with WMS
Infrequent and inaccurate scans lead to inventory errors and fulfillment issues. AiR™ DC delivers accurate reports on pallet, case, and rack locations, exceptions, empty slots, and misplacements — seamlessly integrating with your WMS for faster, smarter decisions.
AIR™ DC
The AIR DC is a dual-capacity inventory robot built to manage high-demand environments, offering enhanced scanning capabilities and extended operational time, all while maintaining the precision and autonomous functionality of the standard AIR model.

Dane AiR™ Retail
Autonomously scan shelves to detect out-of-stocks, verify planograms and pricing compliance
Prevent Stockouts and drive Sales
Stockouts and missed shelf gaps lead to lost sales and shopper frustration. AiR™ Retail autonomously scans aisles to detect empty facings, low stock, and replenishment needs, giving teams up-to-date visibility so they can restock quickly. This more precise inventory management boosts customer experience and ultimately sales.
Act on Inventory Gaps Instantly
Slow data means slow action. AiR™ Retail eliminates the lag by pushing real-time alerts and shelf exception reports directly to your team’s mobile devices. This enables immediate action to restock shelves, correct pricing issues, and maintain compliance—before it affects the customer experience. With fewer manual checks required, associates can stay focused on delivering great service.
Maintain Planogram Accuracy and Compliance
Manual audits can’t keep pace with pricing changes or merchandising resets AiR™ Retail verifies product placement, shelf tags, and facings—flagging planogram deviations and pricing errors so store teams can fix issues fast and maintain compliance.

Dane AiR™ RFID
Autonomous RFID Add-on for Air dc and retail
Eliminate manual scans and boost productivity
Utilizing manual RFID methods is slow, inconsistent, and labor-intensive. AiR™ RFID autonomously scans tagged inventory throughout the day—eliminating the need for handheld readers and allowing staff to focus on higher-value tasks.
Navigate Dynamic Environments with Confidence
Scanning can be disrupted by traffic, obstacles, or warehouse complexity. Powered by BrainOS® and equipped with 3D LiDAR and advanced sensors, AiR™ RFID safely navigates around people, equipment, and shelving to complete reliable scans without operational disruption.
Deliver RFID Data Where It’s Needed Most
RFID data is often fragmented, delayed, or disconnected from operational systems. AiR™ RFID captures and structures tag-level data in real time, delivering it directly to your WMS or BrainOS® mobile app —so you can streamline item tracking, reduce reconciliation time, and maintain inventory accuracy without manual effort.
