Hopping All-Terrain Robots

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Ascento Pro Robot is Autonomous and Also Remote Controllable

— December 13, 2021 — Tech
The Ascento Pro robot is an all-terrain, self-balancing technology solution that is capable of going almost anywhere which could help to greatly improve capabilities for operators and beyond. The robot maintains a series of wheels that can take it over almost any urban or rural terrain with ease, while also being suited for hopping up stairs or safely going down them. The system utilizes LiDAR to get around along with a series of onboard cameras and LED headlights to easily find its way around.

The Ascento Pro robot maintains an autonomous functionality, but can also be controlled via remote control to provide operators with the ability to easily take control over the unit as required. The system can autonomously find its way around, while also getting to a charging station when its battery runs low.
