This logistics automation solution utilizes a compact AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) to perform indoor material transport tasks.

Based on multi-sensor fusion including Lidar, Camera, RGBD, IMU, and Encoders, the robot can move freely within designated areas. It supports both a "Delivery Mode" for transporting items to specific locations and a "Cruise Mode" for moving repeatedly along a pre-set path.

By facilitating the movement of goods within the workplace, this solution reduces worker fatigue caused by repetitive manual labor and increases overall operational efficiency. It can also safely transport chemical, fresh, or medical supplies, as well as hazardous materials, within the facility.

IMU: A sensor-based device that measures the velocity, orientation, gravity, and acceleration of a moving object.
Encoder: A transducer in digital electronic circuits that converts signals from one code sequence to another.

Features

Simple and Fast Installation

Efficient Process: Ceiling marker attachment → Robot path learning → Map registration → Trial run and training.

Rapid Deployment: The entire process can be completed within one day (e.g., within 2 hours for a 165 $m^2$ area; varies by size and layout).

Minimal Infrastructure: No additional facility construction is required beyond ceiling marker placement.

Differentiated Software Technology

Multi-Map Support: Multiple site maps can be saved and selected as needed.

Three Selectable Idle Modes:

One-to-one parking mode: Each robot returns to its specific designated spot after completing a task.
Free mode: Robots return freely to any available space within a defined parking zone after work.
Parking replenishment mode: Sets designated parking and standby areas; the first robot to arrive takes the parking spot, while subsequent robots wait in the standby area.

Multi-Robot Collaboration

Pudu Cloud Integration: Robots share orders in real-time via the Pudu Cloud, enabling collaboration by yielding or avoiding each other based on order priority.

Scalability: Up to 100 robots can collaborate seamlessly.

High Performance for Safe Operation

Advanced Vision: Equipped with two high-performance RGBD cameras (co-developed with Intel) providing a 174° wide field of view to detect obstacles and unexpected situations from the front and sides.

PUDU SLAM: Uses proprietary autonomous driving technology that combines LiDAR, RGBD cameras, and ceiling markers for precise positioning.

Reliable Maintenance: Accessible through a nationwide official A/S maintenance network equivalent to the headquarters' standards.

Customer-Centric Purchase Programs

Flexible Options: Offers various programs including direct purchase, long-term rental, and short-term rentals for events.

Results

Key Benefits	Increased work focus by minimizing the physical movement and travel distance of workers.
Client Feedback	Usually, introducing logistics robots like AGVs is a difficult decision due to high costs. However, PuduBot allowed us to move forward because of its relatively low cost and the extreme simplicity of its installation and operation.

Palletizing Automation using Epson VT6L & Range Extender

This solution automates the process of packing products into boxes and subsequently palletizing them by integrating Epson's VT6L 6-axis robot, Epson's T6 SCARA robot, and Vention's Range Extender with MachineMotion controller. The Epson T6 SCARA robot efficiently handles the high-speed task of transferring products into boxes. Meanwhile, the Epson VT6L 6-axis robot, mounted on Vention's Range Extender, performs palletizing across a significantly expanded workspace. This combination allows for a seamless transition from primary packaging to end-of-line palletizing within a single automated cell.

Unmanned Warehouse System using Geek+ P800

This application case features an unmanned warehouse system utilizing the Geek+ P800 picking robot. By distinguishing between long-term storage items and high-frequency goods, the system implements an intelligent warehouse management model that enhances customer accessibility and convenience. This solution maximizes space utilization by storing a high volume of goods within a compact footprint.
