Sherpa Tug
An autonomous electric trolley tugger from Bengaluru that navigates factories and outdoor yards with 3D lidar instead of tape or fixed paths. The 2023 v4 version is described as a one-tonne trolley mover; Ati later added the heavier Sherpa 10K. The original launch date was not published, so the year shown is its first dated deployment report.
