FEINDEF 2021: Alisys Robotics presents SPOT dog robot able to conduct security or military missions.

In collaboration with the American company Boston Dynamics, the Spanish Company Alisys Robotics presents the SPOT, a new generation of quadruped robots that can be used for security or military roles. Two models of the SPOT robot were presented during FEINDEF including a surveillance version with a camera and a second model equipped with a robotic arm & gripper model.

The Alisys Robotics company is a global pioneer in the development of solutions for the management, remote operation and analysis of robot fleets, drones and IoT devices. Its platform (cloud and on-premise) simplifies the actual deployment of these devices and their integration into the processes of different industries.

Alisys Robotics drives the digital transformation of organizations by creating technology solutions that simplify communication and operational processes, reduce costs, optimize resources and improve business outcomes. With 20+ years’ experience, Alisys Robotics is a technological partner of Vodafone and Boston Dynamics, an Electronic Communication Operator in Spain and five other European countries. It is also an official partner of Softbank Robotics, Google, IBM, and Cisco.

Drones or dynamic robots, such as Spot from Boston Dynamics - of which Alisys Robotics is an official partner - are some of the autonomous devices that can be controlled and operated through the platform. The availability of these technologies and their control from a central system allows security and defense organizations to take advantage of the most disruptive capabilities and functionalities to maintain the safety of people and assets, creating secure, efficient, and intelligent environments

The Spot is an agile mobile robot that navigates terrains with unprecedented mobility, allowing you to automate routine inspection tasks and data capture safely, accurately, and frequently. The Spot dog robot has already been tested by the French Army to carry out dangerous missions. It can be deployed in dangerous areas and fitted with cameras it is able to send back images to soldiers on a monitor.

Alisys Robotics in collaboration with the Spanish University of Vigo has developed a version of the Spot robot which is configured to be used by security personnel to conduct tasks of surveillance inspection and emergency response. The robot is fitted with a 5G connection system offering secure data connexion that allows data transmission and ultra-low latency necessary to share information in real-time.
