On October 13th, the four-day ISSA North American Cleaning Exhibition ended successfully at the McCormick Convention Center in Chicago. This conference gathered more than 700 exhibitors from more than 30 countries around the world, and focused on displaying the world's advanced equipment, tools, supplies, materials and technologies in the field of cleaning. DeepBlue Technology brought its ace AI products including the indoor cleaning robot "Xiaolan Whale", the intelligent outdoor cleaning robot "Little Rhinoceros" and the lawn mowing robot to the exhibition, which attracted wide attention.
At present, the cleaning industry is in a transition period. Problems such as difficult recruitment, high labor costs, and difficulty in achieving standardization need to be solved urgently. In addition, the global epidemic situation is severe, and the demand for intelligent cleaning robots continues to expand.
For this reason, for different application scenarios, the cleaning robots developed by DeepBlue Technology are equipped with different technologies. The indoor intelligent cleaning robot "Xiaolan Whale" is mainly suitable for ceramic tiles, marble, epoxy floors, etc. A large area of hard ground. It is equipped with the laser SLAM technology independently developed by DeepBlue Technology, which allows the robot to independently complete the full coverage of dust removal, cleaning and nursing work in large areas. At the same time, various modes can be adapted to various ground types and work scenarios. In addition, Xiaolan Whale also has a "one-button mode", click the "start" button, you can automatically clean, plan the route, end the return charging, etc., which truly saves time, labor and labor. A large-scale supermarket, research institute and other scenarios have been successfully used.
The intelligent outdoor cleaning robot "Little Rhino" independently developed and manufactured by DeepBlue Technology adopts core technologies such as multi-sensor fusion SLAM positioning, intelligent perception decision-making, visual detection and recognition, and implementation path planning, which can realize complex outdoor roads, dynamic changes and other scenarios. The functions of real-time positioning, autonomous navigation, obstacle avoidance, and autonomous safe operation can be applied to public scenes such as industrial parks, parks, campuses, and scenic spots. At present, the robot has landed in many domestic cities such as Binzhou, Shandong and Jingmen, Hubei, and is gradually being exported to Europe.
In Europe and the United States, families with private lawns have become very common, and lawn cleaning has become a rigid need for families. However, taking care of the lawn is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it also requires high labor costs, which has also become a recognized pain point in the industry. In recent years, the smart lawn mowing robot market has attracted more and more global attention. According to Grand View Research, the global lawn mowing robot market is expected to reach US$3.5 billion in 2026, and the expected compound growth rate from 2021 to 2026 is expected to reach 12%.
The new generation of AI lawn mowing robots exhibited by DeepBlue Technology this time is a version with technological upgrades and functional enhancements after being exhibited at the Amsterdam Cleaning and Sanitation Exhibition in the Netherlands in May 2022, and has achieved innovation in many technical fields. It integrates DMNS (DeepBlue Multimodal Navigation System) independently developed by DeepBlue Technology, and integrates multi-modal perception and positioning technologies such as CV, RTK, INS, VIO, etc., and can achieve high-precision autonomous positioning and navigation capabilities in complex environments in outdoor gardens. Realize a series of intelligent lawn management functions such as autonomous path planning, automatic mowing, automatic charging, automatic task scheduling, and lawn care. It truly achieves precise empowerment with AI technology and liberates users' hands. At the same time, a variety of models of products can cover lawn mowing and maintenance work such as small family courtyards, large hotels, football fields, and large and medium-sized public green spaces.
With the continuous implementation of many products of DeepBlue Technology, AI is used to empower all walks of life, and truly achieve "artificial intelligence serving people's livelihood". DeepBlue Technology applies the dimensionality reduction of autonomous driving technology with independent intellectual property rights to robot products, making robots more intelligent, reducing dependence on people, and improving work efficiency. At present, DeepBlue Technology has launched a variety of robot products in sanitation and disinfection.
