wheel.me :: Autonomous Wheel System That Transforms Standard Industrial Carts, Trolleys, Racks & Dollies Into Fully Self-Driving Mobile Robots

wheel.me is a Norwegian robotics company that has pioneered the world’s first autonomous wheel technology. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Oslo, Norway, wheel.me develops Genius 2, a retrofittable autonomous wheel system that transforms standard industrial carts, trolleys, racks, and dollies into fully self-driving mobile robots. This innovative approach allows manufacturers and warehouses to automate intralogistics without replacing existing equipment or redesigning entire facilities.

The company’s core product, the Genius 2 autonomous wheel set, delivers a 400 kg payload capacity per four-wheel configuration and achieves mission success rates above 95%. Priced from €13,990 for a complete four-wheel kit, the solution offers 10× faster implementation than traditional AGVs or AMRs while maintaining full compliance with the highest industrial safety standards (UL 3100, SIL 2). Once mounted and configured, the wheels enable autonomous navigation, obstacle avoidance, and mission-based operation across dynamic factory floors, supporting applications such as assembly-line replenishment, waste removal, material transport between stations, parts kitting, and tool delivery.

wheel.me emphasizes minimal process disruption, high flexibility, and strong ROI through its plug-and-play design. The wheels integrate with existing WMS/MES systems and can operate 24/7 alongside human workers. Recent enhancements include improved navigation robustness using perception engines, certified power stations, and portable chargers. The company operates across Europe, North America, and Mexico, with partnerships supporting deployments at major automotive, logistics, and manufacturing sites.
