GL-1

GL-1 is a 400 kg autonomous base built to carry your payload — robotic arm, sensor mast, or rack — into the field. It navigates by Visual SLAM, is supervised from a single command center, and a modular power payload up to 27 kWh runs the equipment it carries. Built in Detroit on the CVR hardware stack.

01 · Payload Profiles

One base.
Any payload.

GL-1 is configured around the payload. A standardized mounting grid, data ports, and a modular power payload adapt the base to the job rather than the other way around.

01· INTEGRATE
Arm & Manipulation Base

Mount a robotic arm on the standardized grid and power it directly from the base — up to 27 kWh at a customizable output voltage.

02· LOGISTICS
Facility Logistics

Material movement across docks, corridors, and aisles. 400 kg on a flat, standardized deck.

03· CLEANING
Floor Sweeping

Factory-fit sweeper attachment for continuous facility cleaning while the base transits its route.

04· SENSING
Sensor Mast & Inspection

Carry sensor masts for routine inspection of perimeter, infrastructure, and assets.

05· OUTDOOR
Yards & Mixed Routes

Outdoor navigation package for yards, ramps, and mixed indoor / outdoor routes. Adds IP55 sealing.

06· MANEUVER
Tight-Aisle Operations

Optional swerve drive rotates in place and translates sideways into tight bays and narrow aisles.
