GeckoSystems, supplier of mobile robotics solutions, has declared that its innovative technologies and robots pertaining to the CareBot robot will be showcased at ‘Mobile Robots in Motion’, the third-annual stakeholder conference of GeckoSystems.
The conference will be held in Conyers between April 13 and 14, 2011. The two-day event will enable stakeholders and industrialists to experience the overall abilities of the CareBot robot.
The CareBot robot can move automatically throughout the office and home. Its artificial intelligence enables it to identify its surroundings. Its battery can last up to 20 hours. It can serve as a caretaker, security guard and personal helper. Its frame is made of aluminum. Other features of the robot include plastic covering, several sensor systems, a pair of distinctly driven wheels, multiple onboard computers linked in a local area network (LAN).
The microprocessors of the CareBot robot directly communicate with the sensors and data gets transferred to the inbuilt computers. GeckoSavants, highly autonomous and supportive Artificial intelligence (AI) software programs, are run by every computer. These AI software programs enable successive completion of tasks. The robot can also be accessed via telepresence and remote monitoring methods.
Several features of GeckoSavants including GeckoNav, GeckoChat, GeckoTrak, GeckoImager and GeckoOrient will be discussed in the conference. GeckoNav software enables automated self-navigation of the robot to perform various tasks like guarding as well as averting moving and motionless obstacles. GeckoChat enables the robot to verbally communicate with people. GeckoTrak offers the ability to continuously maintain proximity to the person who needs care by means of sensor fusion technology. The conference will also include presentations on GeckoZap, GeckoSPIO, GeckoMotorController and GeckoOrient.
