The High-Tech Logistics Laboratory of the Institute of Logistics at the University of Miskolc has undergone a major change recently. It has changed its location and also its structure and integration. The system got a new compact form that fits the capabilities of the new location. In addition, the reorganization allows for a complete systematic review and hiring a development team for and expanding the system's capabilities and automatic functions, that can represents the principles of today. In this paper, we would like to describe the subsystems of the laboratory while showing the opportunity of teaching and research themes. In addition, we would like to introduce the possibility of the system upgrades, which can be occurring in the near future in the field of logistics automation. These aspects can be useful to current and future professionals, who are interested in the state of automation in logistics.
