ViaBot is a Santa Clara, CA-based company that offers autonomous sweeping robots designed for facility maintenance and monitoring. Their primary product, ViaBot One, utilizes tried-and-true sweeping methods enhanced with 21st-century autopilot technology. The robot operates for up to 6 hours on low-noise lithium batteries, recovering debris from fine dust to litter. It features dynamic pathing, seamless operation through 3D modeling and real-time path adjustment, and a self-charging, self-emptying system that utilizes standard trash cans. ViaBot also provides remote monitoring and maintenance for its fleet, requiring minimal customer intervention (emptying a large trash can and occasional wipe-downs). The system can create facility maps and monitor for security purposes, sending notifications. They have cleaned over 1.8 billion square feet.
