Wandelbots: World's First Universal Operating System for Robots
Wandelbots has unveiled NOVA -- the world's first agnostic operating system specifically developed for industrial robotic automation.
"With NOVA, we are witnessing a new dawn in industrial automation," said Christian Piechnick, CEO of Wandelbots. "Just as Android revolutionized smartphones and Windows transformed the PC world, NOVA will make industrial robotics accessible to everyone and create new ways for software developers to commercialize."
Modern Programming Languages and Vendor Independence
Wandelbots NOVA is the world's first agnostic operating system for robots, designed to make robotics accessible to everyone. By supporting modern development tools like Python and JavaScript, NOVA empowers millions of developers to create and scale robotic applications with ease, reducing the complexity of automation.
Following a Plan, Build, and Operate approach, NOVA simplifies the entire automation lifecycle with AI technologies at its core -- from planning and simulation to deployment and scaling -- ensuring continuous support throughout each phase. Its seamless integration with existing hardware allows businesses to leverage past investments while scaling across multiple robots and brands, without costly retooling -- accelerating projects, lowering costs, and increasing flexibility.

Wandelbots' close collaboration with Microsoft and OpenAI ensures scalability and that the latest and greatest AI capabilities enhance NOVA's feature set.
As a vendor-independent operating system, NOVA simplifies and optimizes the complex world of industrial robotics by integrating hardware components from various manufacturers and making them accessible to everyone through a modern interface. Complex programming and inflexible automation landscapes are now things of the past. NOVA's open API concept, unique user experience, and seamless integration of externally developed apps make it a versatile platform for both robot users and millions of software developers.
Proprietary and outdated programming languages, high operating costs, a lack of skilled labor, and closed ecosystems have so far prevented the full realization of robotics' enormous potential -- especially in small- and medium-sized enterprises, where robotics is still a niche topic.
An Open Ecosystem for Software Developers
Wandelbots NOVA is much more than just an operating system. It offers a unified user interface for all robot manufacturers and models. Software developers can access development tools, UI elements, standardized libraries, and sample applications through the dedicated developer portal. Using the Python-based programming language "Wandelscript," they can create innovative solutions for interacting with robots and share their experiences within the community specifically created for this purpose.
A New Era of Automation
The launch of NOVA marks a turning point. It opens up new opportunities for companies to leverage automation. In addition, software developers, who currently create apps or websites, can now unleash their creativity in a completely new industry.
Wandelbots NOVA -- Beta Phase Starts Now
Since June, the first approximately 50 customers have been able to experience the advantages of Wandelbots NOVA in the closed beta phase. Now, Wandelbots is making its operating system available to more users in the open beta phase.
