KEENON Robotics Brings Autonomous Robot to New Zealand

KEENON Robotics, a leading global intelligent service robotic company, has successfully deployed its delivery robot solution BUTLERBOT W3. The robot operates in M Social Auckland and can use the elevator independently. The first of its kind in New Zealand, the robot is nicknamed H.A.R.I. Stationed by the front desk, H.A.R.I is dressed in a bright blue suit with a polka-dot bowtie and is an integral part of the hotel that provides services to guests at any time of the day or night. The BUTLERBOT W3 is the first hotel service robot in New Zealand that can take the elevator autonomously to designated guest floors and bring a reliable, contact-free and privacy-conscious service experience. With two storage chambers that can be divided into four sections, H.A.R.I can hold a wide variety of items and can complete four errands in succession. It is interfaced with the hotel’s elevator and phone systems and can alert the guests to retrieve their deliveries upon arrival. H.A.R.I would then return to his station at the front desk for auto charging. KEENON’s robots are equipped with a self-developed and fully autonomous position and navigation system, coupled with highly sensitive perception and obstacle avoidance technologies that can readily adapt to complicated real-world application scenarios.
