Logistics can be defined as a science managing the flow of resources through supply chains in terms of distribution logistics (moving goods from the manufacturer through any intermediaries, to the final customer) and intralogistics (moving goods within the walls of a production facility or distribution center) associated with the informational flow. Industry 4.0, internet of Things, Digital Transformation and Digitization, Smart Intralogistics, Intralogistics 4.0 are just some of the phrases, which are used to describe the (near) future of the logistics. In the framework of the invited paper, trends, technologies and application of the next generation intralogistics will be presented and discussed. Along with presentation, some prototypes developed by the Laboratory of logistics systems at Faculty of Logistics University of Maribor will be shown.
