Overview
KR1 focuses on speed, uptime, and safe collaboration. The wheeled base delivers stable, high-tempo navigation in busy aisles, while BLDC + strain-wave actuation enables precise arm moves for pick-place, kitting, and line replenishment. An NVIDIA Jetson stack on Linux powers real-time perception and planning over Wi-Fi, and sub-100 ms latency supports responsive obstacle avoidance. With ~8 hours per charge, KR1 keeps shifts on schedule without frequent docking—making it a practical choice for fast, flexible warehouse automation.
