Ocado Technology
Ocado is the world’s largest online-only supermarket
Ocado Technology builds the software for Ocado, Morrisons, and other customers
Recently signed with Kroger (USA) to build 20 CFCs
Summary
• It is possible to route warehouse robots using D-Wave
• Hybrid quantum & classical computation method used
• Surprisingly easy to use the QPU so you can focus on the problem
• Benchmarking against current best practice to come
Computationally differentiated organizations
should be engaging with D-Wave now on app/system codesign for possible
compelling performance advantage in 2 years
