When inspecting confined spaces, existing solutions struggle in winding, sharp, or slippery conditions.
RoBoa overcomes these limitations with its cutting-edge, snake-like robot, which uses growing-based locomotion to go where no human or other robot can go!
With exceptional maneuverability, RoBoa autonomously navigates and senses its environment, gathers vital maintenance data to reduce costly downtime, and improves safety.
Founded by ETH Zurich engineers, RoBoa is set to revolutionize industries like wastewater, chemicals, power, and oil and gas, making operations safer and more efficient.
Beyond industry, RoBoa supports search and rescue missions, where it locates and assists victims trapped under debris.
