Richtech Robotics Introduces Scorpion, an AI-Powered Single-Arm Beverage Service Robot, and Announces Distribution Partnership for 500 Robots Over Five Years
September 19 2024 - 10:45PM
Richtech Robotics Inc. (Nasdaq: RR) (“Richtech Robotics”), a
Nevada-based provider of AI-driven service robots, today launches
Scorpion, its AI-powered, single-arm beverage service robot.
Providing customized drink recommendations based on preferences and
mood, Scorpion leverages NVIDIA AI technologies to support its
cocktail and wine tasting programs.
Additionally, Richtech Robotics signed a
distributor agreement with Park 34 Liquor Store Inc., under which
the distributor has agreed to sell a minimum of 500 Scorpion units
over five years, followed by a minimum of 500 units per year
annually. Scorpion will make its debut on September 26th at Park 34
Liquor Store Inc.’s 1936 Wine and Spirits store in New York, NY,
where it will offer a variety of wine and liquor tastings for
customers.
Scorpion is designed with the ability to engage
with customers, and its interactive personality and entertaining
presence provide an unforgettable, novel experience. It is
developed to provide consistent beverage quality and service and to
be adaptable to many environments. Created to offer advanced
service and a viral experience, the robot is expected to save costs
and generate revenue for companies. As an end-to-end solutions
provider, Richtech Robotics will work closely with clients to
implement Scorpion into their businesses, from conception to
installation and ongoing support and service.
“We are focused on providing solutions that
streamline operations, increase efficiency, and create cash flow
for our clients. With that focus, we are proud to unveil Scorpion,
sleek in design, agile in its offerings, and eye-catching for
customers,” said Matt Casella, Richtech Robotics President. “By
incorporating NVIDIA technologies with our own capabilities, we are
helping elevate the industry to a new standard of precision and
service.”
NVIDIA accelerated computing and AI technologies
have been integrated into Scorpion to further enhance the robot.
Using the NVIDIA Jetson Orin platform and NVIDIA DeepStream
software development kit, Scorpion delivers advanced body movement
detection with over 95% accuracy. Additionally, it uses NVIDIA
Isaac ROS accelerated libraries and virtual cameras for accurate
obstacle avoidance and object recognition, optimizing path planning
for safe and efficient operation in complex environments. Scorpion
tests and validates the entire software stack in the NVIDIA Isaac
Sim reference application for physically-based simulation.
“We are excited to partner with Richtech
Robotics and introduce Scorpion to our clientele. The combination
of AI-powered customization and efficient service that Scorpion
offers will bring a new level of innovation to the beverage
industry,” said Damian Phillip, Vice President of Park34 Liquor
Store Inc. “We believe this partnership will not only further
augment customer experiences but also provide a competitive edge to
businesses looking to modernize their operations.”
Being a single-arm solution, Scorpion is lower
in cost and has a smaller footprint than Richtech Robotics’ ADAM
humanoid robot. It also features a screen that allows clients to
customize and display digital content.
