Humanoid on a mobile platform - POLCERO

One robot, many stations

At a glance

The same humanoid on a mobile base. Drives up to the station and serves several spots instead of standing at one.

We build robots around the client’s specific process - starting from our own prototypes, adapted to purpose. We fit the technology to the process, not the other way around.

PriceOn request

Two platform versions

The same humanoid torso sits on the mobile base you need — a light, folding base for floor-level picking, or a heavy base for lifting real weight.

Folding mobile-platform humanoid, version 1

V1 — folding base

The mast folds at its midpoint, so the robot bends to collect things off the floor with little loss of power. Wheels at the base rotate the whole robot in place, making it nimble in tight aisles and at low picking heights.

Best for
Floor-level picking, tight aisles
Base
Folding mast, in-place turn
Reach
Floor to work height
Heavy-duty mobile-platform humanoid, version 2

V2 — heavy base

A stronger mobile platform built to lift real weight. It keeps the dual-arm humanoid upper body but stands on a rigid, high-payload base for handling and assembly of heavier industrial parts.

Use cases

  • 01Serving several stations from one machine
  • 02Closing gaps between machines on the floor
  • 03Internal transport between stations
  • 04Two operations in a single cycle

Modular construction

The common core stays the same: chassis, controls, perception and a quick-release tool connector. The working end and the program change - not the whole machine. We mount the core module (control system + AI) on any specialized chassis, or add legs and arms to make a humanoid. Add a task module - arms with a gripper, a harvest head or a weeding laser - and the same robot takes on the next job.

Battery and power

Each robot runs on three hot-swap battery packs seated in the core module. A pack is a self-contained 48 V unit, so power scales with the number of packs and a depleted one is replaced without tools while the robot keeps working on the others.

Self-swapping batteries — no downtime

The robot never fully powers down to recharge. It rotates its three packs one at a time, running on the remaining two while a spent pack charges — so a shift does not stop for the battery.

How a POLCERO robot swaps its own battery

The robot does it itself

  1. Sensing a pack running low, the robot drives to the charging dock and holds state on the two remaining packs.
  2. An arm reaches to the back of the core module, releases the latch and lifts out the depleted pack.
  3. It seats the pack in a free bay of the 4-bay dock and takes a fully charged one in its place.
  4. The fresh pack clicks in; the robot repeats for each pack in turn and returns to work — never off, never idle.

A person can do it in seconds

  1. No shutdown and no tools: the packs are hot-swappable while the robot stands ready.
  2. Press the latch on the back of the core module and pull the pack straight out.
  3. Slide a charged pack in until it clicks home — the robot picks up where it left off.

Battery status and the charging station

Every pack reports its own state, so the robot and its operators always know when to swap. A 4-bay charging station keeps a rotation of packs ready, and the robot docks to swap its own packs during work.

Live per-pack state
State of charge, health and temperature for each of the three packs, in real time.
Predictive swap
The system schedules the next swap before a pack runs out, so work is never interrupted mid-task.
4-bay charging dock
Four charging inputs keep spare packs topped up and ready for the next rotation.
Autonomous docking
The robot rotates its own packs at the dock during a shift — no operator and no downtime.

How the robot sees

The robot builds one picture of the world from several views at once. A wide-field binocular head gives a left and a right image; comparing them yields depth; on top of that the AI layer adds a perception view that names objects, surfaces and people.

Left

The left eye of the binocular head — a wide-field colour view of the scene.

Right

The right eye — the second colour view the robot compares against the left.

Depth

Stereo disparity between left and right yields distance to every point in the frame.

Perception

The AI layer labels objects, surfaces, obstacles and people, and plans the next move on-device.

The four views a POLCERO robot builds of the world

Wrist cameras

HD cameras at each wrist give a close-up view for precise grasping and assembly.

LiDAR + ultrasonic

Chassis LiDAR and ultrasonic sensors map the space and catch obstacles beyond the cameras.

Force and IMU

Force-feedback joints and an IMU sense contact and balance for safe, stable motion.

Voice and language

Voice interaction and a language model let a person direct the robot in plain speech.

Two ways to power it: batteries or the grid

The robot is autonomous on batteries, but where a site can supply power it runs straight off the grid through a cable — no packs to rotate, no downtime, lower running cost.

01

Hot-swap batteries

Fully mobile and autonomous. Three packs rotate through the charging dock so the robot roams anywhere without a tether.

02

Direct power (cable)

For a fixed station or 24/7 duty, the robot draws power over a cable and runs continuously — the batteries become a backup.

03

Grid infrastructure

In halls, factories and greenhouses we install fixed power rails; outdoors, on fields and yards, overhead conductor lines like tram catenary. The robot draws from the line and tops up its packs while it works.
