Russia's first full-cycle test center for unmanned robotic systems is operating in the capital. The center's developments are being tested in its blog wrote Sergei Sobyanin.
“I recently spoke about the active introduction of robots in
Moscow healthcare system"But before becoming part of the city's economy and environment, new technologies must undergo rigorous and comprehensive testing. To this end, the Moscow Innovation Cluster has opened Russia's first full-cycle testing center, designed for testing utility, warehouse, logistics, transport, monitoring, construction, and many other unmanned robotic systems," the Moscow Mayor announced.
The test center's main site is located in Skolkovo. It houses the headquarters, a venue for specialized events, and several sites suitable for testing various types of equipment. Additionally, the testing grounds of the Federal Center for Unmanned Aircraft Systems and several other sites will also be used. Applications for testing can be submitted on the platform. and.MoscowDocument review is expedited, allowing you to begin testing your systems within just a few days of submitting your application.
Developers can test their technology in a wide variety of conditions: in offices, public spaces, on and under water, in the air, and in open areas—on asphalt, natural soil, or wooden decks.
"Having our own testing center will shorten the path from prototype to serial production. This is an important tool for stimulating the development of domestic technologies," Sergei Sobyanin emphasized.
Among the first developments being tested at the center is the autonomous floor scrubber "Unit," which is being tested by Yaku Robotics LLC. The robot automatically maps the room in real time, plots a route, and avoids obstacles—both stationary and moving. It operates confidently even in crowded areas or other challenging conditions, cleaning quickly and efficiently. When needed, the robot automatically returns to its docking station, where it recharges and replaces its water, after which it can resume work.
Gumich RTK LLC is testing the "City Guard" robot, whose task is to patrol restricted areas and public spaces. It monitors the situation and, if necessary, alerts emergency services. The robot is equipped with stereo cameras and computer vision technology. Using these technologies, "City Guard" creates precise maps of the area in real time and detects even small moving objects. The system is connected to video surveillance systems, allowing for a faster response to potential threats.
Robcom's Venom-Locust tracked platform is also undergoing testing. This maneuverable, electric-powered all-terrain vehicle offers excellent cross-country capability. It can be used for mowing grass in the summer and for clearing snow in the winter. The robot moves silently, potentially allowing it to be used in residential areas even at night. It demonstrated its effectiveness in testing, clearing snow up to 40 centimeters deep and overcoming drifts up to one meter.
Autonomous mobile robots "Moros" from Mobile Robotic Systems are designed for transporting loads weighing up to 1.5 tons in warehouses and industrial facilities. They can also interact with other smart devices, allowing the system to automatically assign tasks and plot routes. Using these robots allows for a two- to three-fold increase in labor productivity, a doubling of cargo processing speed, and a 20 percent increase in storage capacity through more efficient use of warehouse space.
Applied Robotics Group is testing a new model of the ARM robotic arm. This robotic arm is suitable for a variety of tasks: it can assemble and package products, paint, or perform precision operations on small parts. It is already being used in the automotive, pharmaceutical, and heavy industry sectors. The manufacturer produces five models with different specifications.
