Carrollton-based GoLabs has launched as “a brand new U.S.-based robotics company”—and as a vendor of China’s Unitree Robotics it’s offering a line of watchdog-like quadruped security robots.
“These four-legged machines never sleep, are fully autonomous, and allow companies to save both time and money while ensuring that their infrastructure and employees stay protected,” GoLabs said in a statement.
GoLabs is a partner company of Carrollton-base GOTRAX, which offers a range of personal transportation products, including electric scooters, e-bikes, and hoverboards.
Quadrupeds have thermal cameras, IR sensors, and more
The Unitree quadruped robots from GoLabs come equipped with wide-angle HD cameras, providing 24/7 real-time footage and alerts about potential threats. Thermal cameras and night vision cameras enable them to operate in complete darkness using thermal imaging and IR sensors, the company said.
The robots can guard areas that pose a health risk to humans, or simply meander their way around an AI warehouse or live event.
GoLabs said its team of experts will help companies to both program and deploy the four-legged robots. Beyond setup, calibration, and initial system integration, GoLabs will also aid in troubleshooting any issues.
How the autonomous quadrupeds mark their territory
GoLabs said Unitree’s autonomous quadrupeds use an integrated 4D LiDAR system and SLAM technology to create 3D maps of their security perimeter. Companies can then give the robots automated patrol paths and checkpoints, making a security system “both simple and efficient.”
