Amidst a declining birthrate, an aging population, and labor shortages, securing personnel for cleaning services across vast areas has become difficult. Therefore, we have added this product to our product lineup to address the challenges of labor-saving measures and maintaining hygiene.

The "PUDU MT1" features an AI camera that identifies various types of waste in real time. It evolves through deep learning and database updates.
It can scan with an ultra-wide angle, accurately detecting and efficiently cleaning up debris during regular patrols. It can handle all kinds of debris, regardless of size, and has the capability to cover an area equivalent to approximately 14 soccer fields (up to 10 m2).

The system features integrated positioning using Lidar SLAM and VSLAM, enabling quick responses to dynamic environments, and easy movement even in complex spaces thanks to three-dimensional depth recognition and multi-sensor fusion technology.
