“fedex’s strong vote of confidence in the neo floor-scrubbing robot is a testament to the hard work the entire avidbots team has put into building the world’s only fully-autonomous floor-scrubbing robot,” said faizan shiekh, ceo and co-founder of avidbots. “we’re thrilled to expand our partnership to deploy neo robots in dhl warehouses on every continent.”
while most robotic floor-cleaning machines are simply manual models retrofitted with software that allows them to travel a few pre-programmed routes, avidbots neo is the only fully-autonomous, ai-driven commercial floor-scrubbing robot, delivering the industry’s highest quality floor maintenance. neo is currently deployed at hundreds of sites on five continents, including warehouses, airports, malls, hospitals, universities, manufacturing sites, and train stations. neo has gained a particularly large customer base in the warehouse space as it is the only floor-scrubbing robot to effectively operate in dynamic environments with many continuously moving obstacles. other floor-cleaning robots must be pre-programmed to follow set routes, but this doesn’t work effectively in warehouses where goods and people are always on the move. only neo leverages the most advanced ai to understand its environment, avoiding large and small obstacles and re-routing its pathway on the fly.
dhl and avidbots will work closely together over the next year to identify warehouses worldwide that could benefit from neo floor-scrubbing robots.
