SoftBank Robotics aims to automate office building vacuuming with Whiz Industrial vacuum system

Whiz industrial robotic vacuum cleaner. The office cleaner of coming years won’t be spending time vacuuming up and down huge areas in the middle of the night. Instead we’ll see vacuum fleet managers, in charge of several autonomous robotic vacuums. They will be robot supervisors, occasionally changing batteries and emptying vacuum trays as these cleaners …

[電腦 J手記] [Whiz][SoftBank Robotics] [醫療無線吸塵機械人]

IT Square, July 17, 2020 https://www.it-square.hk/archives/12697#more-12697 電腦 J手記 香港再現社區爆發,限聚令重臨,各行各業,尤其係唔少零售,又再承受一次打擊。 不過每次疫情過後,從好處看係更注重衛生,香港唔少地方徹底清潔,設備重覆抹洗,不過苦了清潔工人,每日筋疲力竭。 日本人一向亦以乾淨見稱,但人口老化,工人嚴重不足,解決方法就係開發機械人。日本SoftBank以科技投資聞名,亦經營SoftBank Robotics,開發咗NAO及Pepper機械人。SoftBank Robotics亦在出售無線吸塵機械人Whiz,解決疫情打掃繁重工作。 SoftBank Robotics開發的無線吸塵機械人Whiz,外形有如手推車,方便「訓練」機械人的吸塵路線。 無線吸塵機械人成行成市,不過Whiz係工業用的級數,現在部署在香港多個商場。日本設備機械人已有相當長歷史,而且以乾淨聞名。Whiz有多項實驗結果及認證,掃地吸塵工作也十分認真。究竟吸塵點有乜客觀標凖?原來檢測環境清潔成效業界早有標凖,業界有「生物冷光反應檢測法」(Adenosine Triphosphate bioluminescence),簡稱ATP檢測,檢測醫院無菌及清潔,就以ATP計算環境衛生程度。 Whiz工作過程遇障礙,唔能夠解決,電池量不足,亦會發出求救,通過電話或專用傳呼機。 以人手清潔ATP一般係約6成,Whiz達到9成以上;唔會清潔時造成二次污染。據講Whiz清潔地氈,比一般吸塵機更徹底。除咗識得吸塵,Whiz行過亦順便亦識得過濾空氣,具備2個HEPA空氣淨化機,除去室內PM 2.5微粒。 Whiz充滿電可以操作3小時,而且可以換電,每次可清潔500平方米。Whiz同市面上隨機四圍行嘅吸塵機械人唔同,除咗懂得避障,亦可以規畫路線,每部機械人可預先規畫600條唔同清潔路線,路線上載至雲端,並且可以教其他Whiz機械人,完成後產生清潔完成報告,並可從手機知道清潔成效。 工人好似推車仔,首先設定起點,就可教Whiz機械人巡迴路線,Whiz具備激光雷達(LiDAR)、視像鏡頭、深度鏡頭等無人駕駛技術,Whiz其實亦係小型無人駕駛車,或者稱為Autonomous Mobile Robots(AMR),即係話毋須在環境設定標記,全靠LiDAR掃描附近地形及障礙物,繪製地形後,就可按行走路線凖確移動。工人可教Whiz避開地面凹凸不平,設定過程簡單,基本上毋須任何訓練。 LiDAR掃描附近地形及障礙物,繪製地形後,就可按行走路線凖確移動,已清掃及未清掃面積一目瞭然。 Whiz工作過程遇障礙,唔能夠自己解決,電池量不足,亦會發出求救。機械人完全係物聯網 (IoT),結合雲端技術,並且內置有4G連線,毋須任何連線設定,所以可以隨時監察,亦可自動協調多部機械人。據講未來開放API,結合其他用途,例如途中蒐集數據,增加其他用途。香港現在亦係清潔人手緊張,可以考慮一下。   IT Square, July 17, 2020
