Shanghai Slamtec Co., Ltd. (SLAMTEC), adhering to the concept of “linking the world with intelligence”, provides the robot market with efficient and reliable solutions through technological R&D and product iteration. It is the leader in autonomous positioning and navigation solutions for service robots.
SLAMTEC was founded in 2013, with 150 staff at present. Its sales volume totaled 70 million RMB in 2018. It has three core product lines, including 360° scanning and ranging laser radar RPLIDAR, modularized autonomous positioning and navigation system SLAMWARE and universal service robot platform ZEUS, etc. Its core R&D team possesses rich R&D and practical experience in robot autonomous positioning and navigation as well as core sensors.
SLAMWARE robot autonomous positioning and navigation solution has solved the pain point that robots cannot walk independently. The SLAMWARE navigation is supported by algorithm with comprehending capacity, which enables robots to position themselves to walk intelligently.
Currently, traditional industrial laser radars, mainly using high-precision optical and mechanical parts to ensure the performance, are very expensive. The price of laser radars in the market is higher than 10,000 RMB, which makes it impossible for civil purposes. The core advantages of SLAMTEC’s RPLIDAR lie in that its cost is low and its performance is comparable to industrial laser radars. At the same time, RPLIDAR has realized mass production to ensure its stable sales. RPLIDAR is the thinnest triangulation ranging radar with the largest ranging (The measuring radius of RPLIDAR A3 is 25 meters).
SLAMTEC is the world's largest supplier of triangulation ranging radars and China's largest exporter of this type of radars. Currently, its business covers more than 20 countries and regions in Asia, Europe, North America, etc., with over 2,000 enterprise users and more than 100,000 individual users in total. Domestic famous robot enterprises, such as UBTECH, SIASUN and CSJBOT all adopt triangulation ranging radars and positioning and navigation solutions of SLAMTEC. Moreover, many foreign high-tech enterprises also have long-term trade partnerships with SLAMTEC. For example, Microsoft uses SLAMTEC’s Apollo chassis for exploration and research in Mix Reality. Robby Technologies employs SLAMTEC’s triangulation ranging radars in outdoor transport to help its robots avoid obstacles.
Based in Shanghai Zhangjiang High-tech Park, SLAMTEC is involved in robot autonomous positioning and navigation as well as core sensor technologies. With a global perspective, it will continue to provide the most advanced service robot autonomous positioning and navigation technology and products to domestic and foreign robot markets.
