About ROBO-HI
ROBO-HI combines its own autonomous vehicles with a multi-vendor operating layer. ROBO-HI OS connects robots from different manufacturers, while the broader AOS architecture brings robot, worker and facility data into one system for task allocation and operational supervision.
The company continues the business founded as ZMP in 2001 and adopted the ROBO-HI name in 2025. Its current hardware spans DeliRo delivery robots, PATORO security robots, RakuRo passenger mobility and RoboCar industrial vehicles. A 2026 programme with Itochu Techno-Solutions extends that stack to 50-200-tonne AGVs for shipbuilding, steel and heavy-equipment plants.
