Premium cenobots experts from Navia Robotics: The process of dispatching HolaBot was well thought out as well, with the included Smart Watch that can call the robot over to the table that needs to be cleared out. Bussers can simply head over to the table with empty bussing tubs, call the robot over with the Smart Watch and fill the bussing tubs while the robot makes it way over to the table. Once the robot arrives, calling out “Hola Hola” will have the robot turn around for easy loading of the bussing trays. Simply gesture your hand across the top of the robot and the robot will make its way to the dishwashing station without requiring any contact, keeping the robot touch screen clear of smudging from dirty hands.

Of course, merely installing a BellaBot is not enough to get the most out of it. Navia Robotics, with our years of experience in the food service industry, will always coordinate with customers on best deployment methods and usage practices to ensure your staff are fully equipped to take your operational effiency to the next level. We’ve worked with countless restaurants to coordinate and adapt with the workers and workflow to best integrate serving robots in their space. No other robot company can provide the right balance in consulting and providing you with the best solutions to make your transition to a more advanced, more efficient restaurant with the deployment of the latest robotic technologies. It’s no wonder we have customers lined up to try out and procure the BellaBot, and have existing customers come back to procure additional units!
Navia Robotics is developing flexible, network communication schemes for robots to directly communicate with other robots within the same network to quickly calculate the shortest route and make rapid decisions. Such ad-hoc networking system reduces the overhead of a centralized computing system and allows individuals robots to make decisions on the fly. The service robot nearest to the point of demand can make its way over without affecting the operation or scheduling of other robots in the area.
HolaBot comes with a paging function, a watch sized device to automatically page the robot to your location to save time by not having to track down the robot when you need it. Just wave your hand above the sensor on the top of the HolaBot unit to have the robot return to its base. No need to touch the return button if your hands are wet or dirty. Voice Recognition: Simply call out “Hola Hola” and the HolaBot robot will turn around upon arrival for easy loading and unloading.
BellaBot was made with form and function in mind, with flowing curves and sharp edges in all the right places. The ergonomics are designed for easy human interaction, including screen tilt angle, device height and easily accessible trays. BellaBot is equipped with multiple sensors that sense the surrounding in both 2D and 3D, all in a compact modular chassis. It can stop immediately when an obstacle is detected and comes with an advanced suspension system to prevent items on the trays from tipping over.

We’ve had the gracious opportunity to deploy numerous KettyBot units in the field and get feedback from many different restaurants on what the saw as the best case use scenarios for the KettyBot in their establishments. As the carrying capacity of the KettyBot is a bit on the smallish side, it’s ideal for smaller restaurants and cafes to use it for delivering food to tables and fit in tighter aisles, but for larger establishments, the KettyBot’s tray dimensions are usually a limiting factor. On the other hand, it has a large screen up front to display pictures and videos of the latest dishes and to promote upcoming events and sales, so larger restaurant owners have taken it upon themselves to try out the KettyBot to take patrons to their tables.
Multi-robot Coordination and Cooperation: KettyBot can coordinate operations with additional units within the same network to operate quickly and efficiently. The robots can coordinate their movements to avoid interrupting each other. KettyBot provides voice alerts and on screen notifications when the battery level gets too low and automatically returns to the docking station to recharge. No need to worry about manually charging the robot, KettyBot takes care of that on its own!
Easy tray identification; LIDAR Positioning: New generation laser based mapping system; High Fidelty Speakers: Clear audio with powerful 2 x 30w speakers; Visual Positioning: Accompanies LIDAR mapping, Aerospace grade alloy provides rigidity and strength, 3D vision sensors for robustness. Suspension System: Avoid spills on rough patches or abrupt stops. Laser and visual combination SLAM system based on LIDAR sensor, cameras and UWB location tracker ensures redundancy in accurate robot positioning.
