Reality check

A demo shows what may be possible. These points help judge whether the product fits day-to-day use.

Works well when
  • Predictable delivery, cleaning or guidance routes
  • Sites with elevators, doors and handoff rules defined
  • Repetitive work where staff can handle exceptions
What to check
  • Navigation around guests, children and temporary obstacles
  • Charging, cleaning and refilling requirements
  • Actual handoff behavior when the route is blocked
Not a magic solution
  • A substitute for hospitality and human judgment
  • A guarantee of lower labor cost without workflow changes
  • A safe choice for an untested public environment

About

AlienGo is a quadruped development platform. Its official table gives 21.5 ±1 kg weight without battery, 13 kg load and 12 motor degrees of freedom. Movement control runs in Ubuntu and sensing in Ubuntu-ROS. Cameras are listed as standard sensing equipment while LiDAR is optional. The stated 2.5–4.6 hour endurance is a range, not a guaranteed loaded-walking runtime. The robot is not an autonomous inspection solution without application development.
