Gausium joins the sweeper race

Shortly after PUDU presented its PUDU MT1 autonomous sweeper, industry leader Gausium has now joined the race. The Chinese company from Shanghai has also been working hard in recent months on a sweeping robot designed for large warehouses and production halls. The Beetle is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. It will be exciting to see whether Gausium can repeat the sales success of the Phantas with this new product.

ISS experiments with window-cleaning robots

Automated vacuuming, sweeping, mopping, and scrubbing arrived on the market long ago and are accepted by users and end customers. The question is always: what large-scale service automation can we expect next? While autonomous glass facade robots have been in the news in recent months, the FM company ISS is now demonstrating a pragmatic indoor approach. However, the bottom line is that the technology must still be sophisticated enough to produce cleaning results that match those of a professional glass cleaner.

When robots kidnap robots

In the last few days, a surveillance camera video that is as funny as it is disturbing has gone viral. A small robot convinces 12 others to follow him. Important: This is an experiment in which the clients gave the robotics company Unitree Robotics and its robot Erbai access to the building. Above all, however, the video shows what artificial intelligence paired with robotics is already capable of today.

Robot learns to clean by demonstration

Researchers at TU Wien have created a method that allows robots to learn tasks like cleaning or sanding through human imitation. This process involves gathering data from a sponge equipped with force sensors and tracking markers, which is then used to train a neural network.

Dyson works on a four-legged robot for household tasks

Dyson develops a robotic dog to handle all your household chores. This four-legged machine is designed to take care of tasks like vacuuming, mopping, watering the lawn, and mowing the grass. However, whether this robot will ever become a reality remains uncertain.
