Summary
2027 is the target for commercial release of 1Rollo, a one-wheeled AI security robot that remains a functional prototype aimed at campuses, warehouses and other large outdoor sites.
The 100-pound machine uses 360-degree computer vision, RTK GNSS positioning and obstacle-avoidance sensors to follow mapped patrol routes, then alerts a human operator over Wi-Fi or 4G/5G when it detects unusual activity.
Rollo Robotics says 1Rollo can reach 19 mph, run up to eight hours per charge and dock for autonomous wireless charging, while supporting add-ons such as thermal, night-vision and pan-tilt-zoom cameras.
The company plans to sell it through a Robotics-as-a-Service subscription that bundles hardware, software updates and support, though pricing has not been disclosed.
Open questions include performance on stairs and uneven ground, plus privacy and cybersecurity safeguards for cloud-connected video feeds, operator accounts and remote control systems.
