About

About KettyBot

KettyBot combines multiple carrying trays with an 18.5-inch advertising screen and high-power speaker. It can deliver food or goods, greet visitors, introduce products and escort customers, allowing one mobile platform to alternate between transport and customer-facing promotional work.

Radar and visual navigation create three-dimensional obstacle awareness and allow the robot to pass through gaps as narrow as approximately 55 centimetres. Mapping and routes can be configured directly on the robot through Pudu’s self-deployment workflow. Advertising, menu and voice content are managed digitally, while fleet functions coordinate repeated delivery tasks across hospitality and retail sites.
