About Friendly Robots
Friendly Robots develops autonomous vacuum systems for schools, offices, hospitals, government buildings and other commercial facilities. Its FR06 Friendly Frog uses LiDAR to map each site and follow configured cleaning routines with edge coverage and HEPA filtration.
The FR06 provides up to eight hours of continuous vacuuming, covers about 4,500 square feet per hour and carries a four-gallon bagless bin. Friendly Robots programs each installation, supplies an app-based operating workflow and supports the American-built system through a monthly subscription and service model.

- 2022-04-01 - Award - Friendly Robots wins DOE E-Robot prize grant
The $666,000 U.S. Department of Energy E-ROBOT prize supported sensing, inspection and mapping for commercial-building cleaning robots. Friendly Robots linked the work to autonomous systems that can identify building conditions associated with energy waste. The award extended a floor-cleaning platform into building-assessment workflows rather than funding routine vacuum service alone.
