What Early Users Say

FAQ

How does the robot navigate autonomously?

Orioos combines GNSS (satellite positioning) with computer vision, enabling it to patrol vineyards, orchards, and industrial areas without human intervention.

Can I see what the robot sees in real time?

Yes. The onboard camera system provides a low-latency live video stream, and you can switch between autonomous mode and manual teleoperation whenever needed.

What kind of monitoring can the onboard vision perform?

It can track crop growth, detect anomalies in irrigation or soil conditions, and perform perimeter surveillance to prevent intrusions.

How does the alert system work?

When Orioos detects unusual conditions (like intrusions, hazards, or anomalies), it automatically sends alerts to the control station, so operators can act immediately.

Is the robot difficult to transport?

Not at all. With a weight of under 30kg, Orioos is designed to be portable, making it easy to carry, deploy, and reposition as needed.

Can the robot be used in different environments?

Absolutely. Orioos is modular and adaptable, making it suitable for agriculture, industry, and remote perimeter security.
