High-performance LFP Battery
Recently, Gaussian Robotics has launched its first food delivery robot named X1, announcing the company’s entry into the field of autonomous food delivery.
SHANGHAI, CHINA, November 29, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ — 1. From Autonomous Cleaning to Food Delivery
For Gaussian Robotics, the R&D of autonomous food delivery solutions was never a difficult attempt, but rather a process simplified and accelerated by effective technology reuse.
Founded in 2013, Gaussian has established its name in the service robot industry with its ECOBOT series – a floor cleaning robot portfolio consisting of 6 product lines for extensive application in a variety of commercial and industrial scenarios. The investment in the R&D of robotic cleaning solutions has endowed Gaussian with strong technological capacity in navigation, specifically localization and mapping, environmental perception and path planning. These technologies can be directly applied to developing food delivery robots.
Compared with autonomous cleaning, the field of autonomous food delivery has a lower technology barrier to entry under its less demanding application scenarios. Generally, a food delivery robot is deployed at a restaurant within a few hundred square meters. Its path planning mechanism is relatively simple with its major task being moving from one point to another.
In addition to its technological edge in navigation, Gaussian has built an inclusive service robot supply chain (R&D, manufacturing, sales, and customer support, etc.) as well as a global market network across 6 continents through 8 years of endeavor. These existing assets and resources are supposed to create a remarkable cost advantage for Gaussian’s new product line of food delivery robots.
2. The Food Delivery Robot Claiming All-round Superiority
According to Gaussian, they did an in-depth market research in the catering industry when initiating the food delivery project. The research shows that operational efficiency, safety, and applicability to scenarios are among the customers’ top concerns for food delivery robots. X1 is claimed to be an optimal solution to these customer pain points with its all-round performance superiority over major food delivery robots in the market.
Navigation Without QR Codes
Upon initial deployment in a restaurant, most of the food delivery robots require scanning a QR code that contains the location information of the site. The deployment process can be very time-consuming and thereby interrupts the normal operation of the restaurant. Moreover, these QR codes are placed on the ceilings of the sites, which compromises the interior aesthetics of the restaurants.
By comparison, X1 spares the hassle of placing QR codes on the ceilings, and automatically updates the map of the site …….
