Continuous error monitoring and congestion detection capabilities are provided to the customer through the Robotics Operation Center User Interface (ROC UI) as part of inVia robotic system. The ROC UI offers an array of monitoring tools, including a comprehensive robot table and a visual map of the picking environment and deployed robots. It provides essential diagnostic information such as battery health and connection strength for each individual robot.
Additionally, the ROC UI empowers the customer with the ability to access real-time task and action insights for each robot, facilitating the recovery of robot errors, adjustment of robot operating modes, and access to the debugging User Interface (UI) for individual robots. These features enhance the customer's ability to promptly address and resolve any issues or concerns that are related to inVia Robots.

Within the ROC UI, the Action tab provides real-time insight into the ongoing activities of the robots. When a robot encounters an error, this is typically reflected in the Action tab. The course of action to address such errors is determined by the severity of the error, offering customers the flexibility to respond accordingly.
In the Manage tab, there are three distinct options:
- Recover—Select this option to resolve errors and restore robots from an errored state. It can also be used to resume a robot that was previously emergency-stopped (E-Stopped). This option is for situational use. In cases where the Recover button is unable to clear the robot from the errored state, inVia’s Robotics Management System (RMS) is notified for further assistance.
- E-Stop—Click the E-Stop option to execute an emergency stop. This is the software equivalent of pressing the physical red buttons on the robot, swiftly halting its operations in emergency situations.
- Operating Mode—Click the Operating Mode option to choose between three distinct operating modes: Automatic, Manual, and Unavailable. This feature provides users with the flexibility to configure the robot's behavior based on the operational requirements.
