Perform Multiple Tasks
In Diverse Environments

  • Deployment in challenging and hazardous outdoor and indoor environments
  • Data acquisition, recording, reporting
  • Payload and sensor transport/operations
  • Autonomous robot targets and swarms
  • Autonomous ops in unmapped areas
  • Semi-autonomous ops via GPS waypoints
  • Interoperability with IoT platform
  • Repetitive monitoring/measurement tasks in most weather/terrain/light conditions
  • Carrying/maneuvering heavy loads and diverse types of sensors and payloads

Three Modes
Autonomous, Semi-Autonomous, and Manual

  • Semi-Autonomous - GPS Waypoints - Users can input a series of geographic waypoints via the mobile controller. Nanuk will follow the specified path from origin to end point and return to origin.
  • Autonomous - Wander and React - Nanuk will navigate a random pattern, detecting/avoiding obstacles. Optionally, it can react to any perceived threats or obstacles and take evasive action.
  • Manual or Autonomous - Return Home - Nanuk can return to start position autonomously and on command.
  • Manual - Users can take control of all Nanuk functions via the remote controller at any time.
