"Zeroth's W1 is a mobile robot with track wheels and cameras in the eyes that can monitor smoke and open windows and doors at home. Both a home and outdoor assistive device, the rolling gadget uses AI and LiDAR to understand its surroundings and sends out light to measure distance, along with RGB cameras and other sensors. These systems help W1 see the world in real time so it can spot obstacles, plan a path around them,"
"The mobile robot with track wheels is also for outdoors, designed to follow, carry, and power equipment. It can move with the owner, hold heavy gear, and even double as a power generator in camping sites when needed. Its body weighs 28 kilograms, but the team says it can carry up to 50 kilograms, meaning it can transport gear and other objects almost twice its own weight without becoming slow or unstable."
"Since it is a power storage, it can become a mobile hub, supporting speakers for music, games for fun, and even recording videos as users move around. Thanks to the cameras installed in the eyes, the mobile robot with track wheels can capture and record scenes without needing to hold handheld devices. The gadget also comes with tracks so it can move smoothly across grass, gravel, dirt, slopes, and uneven ground,"
W1 is a tracked mobile robot equipped with AI, LiDAR, RGB cameras, and other sensors to perceive surroundings and measure distance. W1 processes real-time data to spot obstacles, plan safe paths, maintain balance, and make autonomous movement decisions without constant commands. The robot provides 360-degree awareness for indoor and outdoor security patrols, detecting unusual movement, smoke, open windows, and doors while connecting to smart home systems. The 28-kilogram body can carry up to 50 kilograms. W1 functions as a mobile power storage and hub and traverses grass, gravel, dirt, slopes, and uneven terrain.
