\u201cWe collaborate with experts in the construction industry to provide innovative solutions while preserving and respecting traditional workflows, professional judgement and craftsmanship. Our intelligent robots and automation technologies enhance efficiency and safety, offering greater possibilities for the construction sector. They complement traditional workflows and professional knowledge which result in providing much better solutions,\u201d says Antonio Cheung, Chief Executive Officer of SquareDog Robotics Limited
\nAccording to a survey conducted by HSBC, many companies in Hong Kong are tapping into disruptive technologies like AI, robotics, big data, etc to help run their businesses as the growing availability of such tools helps them save time and money. This trend is happening in the building and construction industry too as many international construction firms are realizing the multiple benefits of using robots for building infrastructure, improving quality & site safety, boosting productivity and tackling manpower shortage so there is an increasing robotics adoption rate within this sector.<\/p>\n

Sky Robot<\/p><\/div>\n

Some of SquareDog Robotics\u2019 most popular products include Sky Robot and Robo Follower. Sky Robot is the first successfully commercialized high-rise exterior robot in Hong Kong. The product brings immense value to the building industry because it provides a safe operational alternative to traditional gondolas when working at extreme heights for structure cleaning or inspection jobs.
\n\u201cThe installation time of Sky Robot is very fast and it can adapt to various wall surfaces with the range of high-quality cleaning tools and inspection test solutions it offers. From our experience, a sharp rise in productivity and significant cost savings has resulted from the use of Sky Robot because the product can complete the cleaning and building inspection job significantly faster than traditional methods. Furthermore, when no humans are involved in such kind of risky high-rise works our clients can save up to 75% in operational costs and approximately 50% on insurance costs,\u201d explains Antonio.<\/p>\n

Robo Follower<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cRobo Follower is another popular product because it is an intelligent hands-free robotic cart that follows the operator and provides seamless load transportation with a simple \u2018Plug & Go\u2019 interface, making the robot\u2019s operation convenient for any worker with minimal training required. The product has a very short setup time with no initial cost too. It can steer over uneven surfaces, gravel, grating, gaps and even water paddle with its target tracking navigation and obstacle avoidance features, all of which can be activated with one click. Many projects use Robo Follower because it can memorize up to 5 routes and it is capable of carrying very heavy loads since it can also be attached to a hand-pallet jack to tow up to 600kg. This prevents work-site injury as it eliminates the human errors that occur with manually handling such heavy loads. While robots are transforming the construction industry as companies like ours develop machines that can assist workers in handling dangerous tasks which may impact health, that does not mean they will replace humans. We believe that robots will work in harmony with humans to create a more efficient, qualitative and safe construction environment so we encourage collaboration with other industries in a positive, proactive and open-minded manner to elevate the standards of both our products and the entire industry,\u201d he concludes.<\/p>\n

The Mediazone Group congratulates SquareDog Robotics Limited for winning the Hong Kong\u2019s Most Valuable Companies 2024 Award. We wish the company more success in its endeavour to bring more intelligent service robots that will benefit Hong Kong\u2019s businesses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
