Yours Technologies has decided to commercially launch its next-generation AMR, integrating Kudan SLAM with its multi-algorithm fusion system

Kudan Inc. (headquarters in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO Daiu Ko) is pleased to announce that Beijing Yours Technologies Co. Ltd. (headquarters in Beijing, China; CEO Peisen Lin, hereafter “Yours Technologies”), a leading company in last-one-mile delivery robot solution provider for next-generation retailing and logistics, has decided to commercially release a new generation of its AMR, where Kudan’s multi-sensor fusion-based SLAM software is integrated into Yours Technologies’ proprietary multi-algorithm system to provide accurate and robust positioning capability.

Established in 2018, Yours Technologies has emerged as a forefront provider of autonomous delivery robot solutions, securing investments from numerous global funds, including multiple commitments from Global Brain Corporation from Japan, through its KURONEKO Innovation Fund (KURONEKO Fund). Over the past five years, Yours Technologies has achieved significant milestones, deploying over 1,200 units of its Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) across more than 110 cities. Initially focusing on servicing areas within a 3-kilometer radius of commercial facilities, Yours Technologies has recognized the increasing market demand for its solutions in diverse and challenging environments. This demand encompasses operations that require navigation through frequently changing sceneries and seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces.

To address these evolving operational needs, a more resilient Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) processing fusion is needed. This necessity has paved the way for a crucial product development partnership between Yours Technologies and Kudan. The collaboration aims to enhance the capabilities of Yours Technologies’ AMRs, enabling them to operate efficiently in complex scenarios, thereby meeting the growing market demands for versatile and reliable robotic delivery solutions.

Leveraging Kudan’s multi-sensor fusion SLAM algorithm, which combines the input data from affordable 3D-LiDAR and stereo cameras, the new Yours Technologies’ AMR model would function with high precision and reliability across a range of dynamic mapping scenarios. Remarkably, this performance is achieved using cost-effective computing platforms, ensuring superior performance and affordability. Additionally, Kudan SLAM’s advanced map creation and updating capabilities, essential for autonomous robot operation, further enable Yours Technologies’ AMR to be deployed and operated at reduced operational and maintenance expenses for the end-users. The new generation AMRs have been successfully deployed in some highly complex and demanding commercial facilities across China as trial activities for several months, and their precise and reliable operational performance is proven to be exceptional.

Beyond their technological partnership, the two companies will join forces in business development, sales and field services for market introduction beyond China, including deployment planned in the Japan market in the upcoming months. We are committed to offering best-in-class, economically viable AMR solutions and pioneering business models designed to open up new sources of revenue for retailers and logistics service providers.

Comment from both companies:
