Cyberwave Deploys Fully Autonomous AI-Powered Robots in a Live Logistics Warehouse Run by SAP§
Cyberwave, an AI robotics software company, today announced the successful deployment of fully autonomous, AI-powered robots in an active SAP logistics warehouse. The deployment builds on SAP's physical AI capabilities announced last year, and marks a major milestone in how SAP is operationalizing advanced robotics within its own facilities.
The deployment at SAP's warehouse in St. Leon-Rot, Germany-operated on the SAP Logistics Management solution, a cloud-native logistics execution solution-demonstrates that physical AI is no longer a research concept. It is delivering measurable throughout improvements today, with robots performing box folding, packaging, and shipping fulfillment tasks fully autonomously.
About the Integration§
The lean, API-first architecture in SAP Logistics Management, which drew significant attention at LogiMAT 2026 for its rapid implementation and standardized processes, provides the ideal foundation for robotic automation. Tasks are translated into precise robot commands through embodied AI service from SAP, enabling end-to-end integration via SAP Business AI Platform and the Cyberwave platform in a matter of minutes.
"By integrating AI-powered robotics directly into our live warehouse operations, we are proving that Physical AI is no longer a concept—it’s delivering real value today. At our St. Leon-Rot warehouse, SAP Logistics Management provides the digital backbone that allows robots to be deployed quickly, operate reliably, and scale with our processes. This is a decisive step toward more resilient and efficient logistics operations." - Tim Kuebler, Head of Warehouse & Shipping, SAP
Why Logistics Robotics Is Hard-and How Cyberwave Solves It§
Logistics environments are among the most challenging settings for robotics. Robots must handle diverse and irregularly shaped objects, fold and pack boxes, move packages, apply labels, and process shipping orders-tasks that vary constantly in objects, layouts, and conditions. Traditional robotic systems require painstaking hand-coding for each task variation and often break down when real-world conditions shift.
Cyberwave has developed the first platform purpose-built to solve this challenge end-to-end. At its core, Cyberwave enables operators to:
- Collect training data rapidly using intuitive demonstration interfaces, capturing the task variability that exists in real warehouse environments
- Fine-tune Vision-Language-Action (VLA) and Reinforcement Learning (RL) models on that data, producing robot policies that generalize across object types, orientations, and workflow variations-not just memorize scripted motions
- Deploy and run those models on physical robots with real-time feedback loops that allow continuous refinement as conditions evolve
The result: robots that can actually perform high-variability tasks in dynamic environments. Whereas conventional systems require weeks of engineering per task, Cyberwave's approach reduces training time from weeks to hours. Non-expert operators can teach robots new tasks through simple demonstrations, and the system automatically adapts variations in objects, environments, and workflows.
"Partnering with SAP on a live warehouse deployment is a defining moment-not just for Cyberwave, but for what AI-powered robotics can actually deliver in enterprise logistics today. What makes this possible is the combination of the robust digital backbone in SAP Logistics Management and Cyberwave's ability to collect real-world training data and fine-tune VLA and RL models that generalize across the variability you find in any real warehouse. Robots no longer need to be painstakingly programmed for every object or scenario-they learn, adapt, and keep improving. That's the shift we've been building toward."- Simone Di Somma, Co-Founder and CEO, Cyberwave
Results§
At SAP's St. Leon-Rot warehouse, robots trained and deployed on the Cyberwave platform are now performing box folding, packaging, and in-house shipping fulfillment fully autonomously freeing human workers from repetitive, physically demanding tasks and increasing warehouse throughput. The entire integration, from robot training to live operation, was completed using SAP software and the Cyberwave platform.
SAP continues to advance its embodied AI capabilities, delivering value to customers while optimizing its own operations as a reference implementation.
