Beatbot Iskim Ultra

Beatbot iSkim Ultra is a solar powered cleaning robot designed for large swimming pools. The device combines a ClearWater clarification system, ultrasonic sensors and a seven motor system to remove floating debris and purify water naturally. The clarifier is biodegradable and made mainly from chitosan. A 24W solar panel and a 10,000mAh battery reduce the need for mains electricity. Smart navigation adjusts the cleaning plan to the pool size, while a mobile application allows remote control and a voice system reports progress, status and alerts.

Opossum

Opossum is a robot designed for street cleaning. The robot works at night, when streets are quiet and traffic is low. A retractable suction head, shaped like a mantis arm, extends under parked cars, so the cars do not need to be moved. Sensors and cameras guide autonomous navigation and help the robot avoid obstacles. Solar panels charge the storage batteries during the day. The main body is made of aluminium alloy and the moving parts of high-strength engineering plastics. Quiet night operation reduces noise and eases the workload of sanitation workers.

J Panda

J Panda is a bipedal service robot designed for interaction and companionship in public places. The form combines the black and white markings, oversized head and rounded ears of the giant panda with a robotic exoskeleton. Two seven inch circular eye displays produce micro expressions such as blinking and squinting. A motion system with 21 degrees of freedom supports nodding, hugging and turning in time with speech. Traditional Chinese bamboo weaving and embroidery patterns are applied to the structure. A regional edition uses an outer shell of ABS composite with 50 percent bamboo powder.

M1 AI Series

M1 AI Series is a robotic pool cleaner designed for extended autonomous cleaning, with a runtime of up to 16 hours. Unlike cleaners that navigate blindly, the M1 AI Series uses Biomimetic Dual AI Vision and a Quad Core Neural Engine for three-dimensional spatial awareness and active debris targeting. A composite Dual Grip Traction System supports stable wall climbing. A sonar-activated waterline return lets users tap the water surface to call the robot to the pool edge for easy retrieval. The design aims to make pool maintenance hands-free for up to 30 days.

Rotating Table

Rotating Table is a meal delivery robot designed for restaurants. Many service robots use fixed multi-layer trays, so staff must bend over or squat down to place and collect plates. Rotating Table uses rotatable plates and has two working states, one for transport and one for serving on arrival. Two sets of pulleys turn the upper and lower plates together while the middle plate stays stable, so the food remains level. A touch screen controls delivery, flipping, music, recording and information. Ambient lights and a silver finish complete the design.

Widgtech Ashman

Widgtech Ashman is a cleaning vehicle designed for solar photovoltaic panels in large power plants. The vehicle uses a pure electric drive, a tracked chassis and an intelligent pathfinding function. A central water tank holds 200 liters and supports the cleaning of thousands of square meters of panels. The mechanical arm has six degrees of freedom and carries an image recognition module, an atomizing water sprayer and a cleaning head. The image recognition module analyzes each panel and guides the mechanical arm during cleaning. The design reduces manual labor and water use.

Socl

Socl is an industrial cleaning robot developed for factory environments. The robot combines the flexibility of service robots with the efficiency and safety of industrial robots. After a cleaning task is entered, Socl scans the factory layout, creates a map and plans a suitable cleaning route. Laser, vision and ultrasonic sensors help the robot avoid obstacles and prevent falls. Socl can also work with elevators and automatic doors, so cleaning is completed without stopping production. A modular design allows functions to be selected according to need.

HSR048 / HSR050 / HSR060

HSR048, HSR050 and HSR060 are horizontal multi-joint industrial robots, also known as Scara robots. Each robot holds a hand at the arm tip, so the machine can be adapted to many tasks and supports automation and labor saving in production plants. The arms extend from a stable base and become slimmer toward the tip, which lowers weight and inertia and allows stable high-speed motion. The organic form recalls the human body and makes fast movement less intimidating for workers on the production line. The compact body helps reduce the size of the equipment.

Dooo

Dooo is a robotic arm for single-person households that often face difficult situations to do alone in their daily lives. It helps with things that are hard to do alone. It is equipped with basic functions of Bluetooth speaker, lighting, and gripper, and stores three modules in the body: dust remover, dryer, and holder. The gripper serves as another eye and arm of the user, and the module combined to the arm becomes an object with limbs. It is also automatically combined with the module they want when the user commands, and automatically stored in the body when it is finished using.

Niro Max

Niro Max is a service robot designed for airports. Face recognition and natural language interaction allow the robot to assist passengers with check-in, ticket return, flight information and other questions. SLAM technology lets Niro Max move freely through the terminal and recharge without assistance. A rear compartment holds a defibrillator and a first aid kit. The shell is made of injection moulded PC and ABS, with an internal frame of aluminium and sheet metal. The aim is proactive service with lower labour costs.

Movus

Movus is an autonomous electric vehicle designed to move cargo and baggage within the airport apron area. Movus travels between the baggage handling system and the aircraft without human labour, using two lidar sensors and two stereo cameras to measure distance and avoid obstacles. A three-level compartment with adjustable doors on both sides holds a modular stainless steel conveyor system. The body is built from a metal chassis and thermoformed plastic parts. The design aims to reduce the damage and loss of luggage caused by manual handling.

Marsmarch

Marsmarch is a modular multi-cabin delivery robot designed for hotels. Nine cabins hold items of different categories, so several orders can be carried at the same time. A multi-task concurrent scheduling system provides real-time route planning and continuous delivery to several rooms. The robot can also collect food from a multi-cabin storage cabinet and bring it to a guest room, which keeps the whole delivery contactless. The body is made of eco-friendly plastics with a sprayed and cast finish. Modular cabinets and shared components reduce production costs.
