Titanium media App news on March 24, Purdue Robot held a spring new product conference, including the food delivery robot "Qiaole Delivery", automatic serving robot A1, four-legged delivery robot D1 and other products.
Among them, "Qiaole Delivery" is a new product created by Purdue Technology for the distribution problem of the restaurant during the peak period, and its biggest feature is to give the robot the ability to visualize the walking intention and the backward perception to establish the rules of human-machine passage and solve the problem of right-of-way coordination between people and robots.
When the man and the machine are moving in opposite directions, "Qiaole Send" shows the driving intention through laser projection or indicates the obstruction of passers-by through water ripples, which is convenient for passers-by to actively choose their own optimal driving path, and when the man and machine travel in the same direction, "Qiaole Send" can identify the people coming from behind and automatically select the side to avoid.
The A1 robot launched by Purdue Technology for the food delivery scene is further in the application coverage, it is equipped with highly adaptable flexible claws, which can use PUDU's self-developed dish recognition technology and visual positioning grasping technology to achieve accurate identification and accurate grasping of dishes.
After picking up the dish from the outlet, A1 will first automatically drive to the target table, and then when serving, it can identify and perceive the complex table environment, identify the effective placement of dishes on the table, and independently plan the optimal path of the robotic arm to complete the final process of the dish on the table.
In the field of unmanned distribution, Purdue Technology launched D1, according to the head of the company, Zhang Tao, D1 uses a lot of self-developed core components, including joint modules, computing power control boards, etc. At the same time, the D1 is equipped with a comprehensive control scheme of soft force control, which can adapt to different terrains, and even under the disturbance of external forces, it can always ensure the balance of the fuselage during the movement.
The D1 is also equipped with a gimbal distribution box that automatically adjusts the pitching posture and maintains horizontal balance. It can be used for restaurants with unique decoration styles such as uneven floors, steps, slopes, small bridges and flowing water, and can also be applied to office buildings, parks, and residential quarters to complete the "last three kilometers" of distribution.
In addition, Purdue Technology is also increasing the layout of the cleaning robot field, following the official release of the first cleaning robot CC1 in mid-November 2021, the micro digital scrubbing machine SH1 was unveiled at the press conference. This robot is built for restaurant scenes with complex environments and irregular floors, providing a flexible cleaning solution with 4 cleaning modes such as standard floor washing, single suction, water brush, and single brush.
SH1 also adopts modular design, can enter the 40cm narrow lane and 10cm below the low space, at the same time, users can view the use status of SH1 through the APP, working hours, etc., timely understanding of the cleaning status, but also can obtain digital cleaning reports, review historical cleaning tasks.
