What it does
W1 moves totes, parcels and ward items on flat floors and rides lifts. It runs Tidewell Brain in Solo mode on its own compute and joins a Crew over the site network, reporting through RoMi-H in hospitals.
How it is built
Commodity actuators, reducers, lidar and battery from the Chinese supply chain. Hands, fingertip tactile sensing, firmware and communications are ours. Vendor telemetry is replaced end to end.
Status
First prototype under construction. Measured values are added to the table as each test completes, with the test date.
