Robotic garden helpers have been a staple in outdoor maintenance for years, but none are quite as entertaining to watch as the Verdie AI-powered bot from Electric Sheep Robotics. This innovative outdoor maintenance machine is revolutionizing the industry by utilizing cutting-edge AI technology to keep lawns looking their best.
Electric Sheep Robotics, based in San Francisco, has been at the forefront of automated outdoor maintenance technology for years. Recently, the company has been taking steps towards becoming a full-scale outdoor maintenance provider by integrating AI software and robots into their operations. Their goal is to replace traditional gas-powered tools with emission-free automated helpers, addressing both environmental concerns and labor shortages in the industry.
At the heart of Electric Sheep’s technology is the ES1 AI training model, a world-class system that uses simulated environments to train maintenance bots to perform their tasks efficiently. This model, along with Nvidia’s Jetson platforms, allows Electric Sheep to train their robots quickly and effectively, learning from real-world scenarios while out in the field with maintenance crews.
The Verdie bot, equipped with the ES1 agent, is set to revolutionize the landscaping industry. With the ability to handle a variety of common power tools, Verdie is a versatile and efficient garden helper. Equipped with stereo cameras and a self-balancing articulating wheeled platform, Verdie can navigate outdoor spaces with ease, adjusting pitch, roll, and height as needed.
“We will be rolling out the Verdie to our customer sites throughout 2024 and continuing to build out this fleet of robots as autonomous agents trained on outdoor services,” says Electric Sheep’s CEO, Nag Murty. With a playful and friendly design inspired by iconic movie bots like WALL-E and R2-D2, Verdie is set to become a staple in the world of outdoor maintenance.
Electric Sheep Robotics is leading the way in the outdoor maintenance industry with their cutting-edge technology and innovative approach. By combining AI software with traditional outdoor services, they are paving the way for a more efficient and environmentally friendly future.
