Complete over-night automatic in store retial stock taking and RFID robot for inventory and location. RFID inventory accuracy with handheld RFID readers could be in excess of 98%, but process missteps and human errors decrease that accuracy to 85% - 95%. Robin-200 is a mobile and autonomous RFID system that performs automatically the inventory of a given space, for instance, a retail store or a low-ceiling warehouse, that provides a higher RFID inventory accuracy than handheld readers.

Keonn Robin-200 RFID Robot operates completely autonomously: the user indicates when inventories should be taken and the robot starts when it is scheduled. After each inventory, the robot goes back to its docking station to charge. Does over-night stock take inventory with higher accuracy and with item location, which allows retail stores to serve customers better, improve efficiency and increase sales.

Robin-200 also locates each tagged item in 2 dimensions (x and y). This information can be processed to generate a planogram of the items inside a space. The information generated by Robin can be used to help employees detecting misplaced items, to accelerate picking and return management, for money mapping purposes, and other operational processes.

Robin-200 can move in all directions, since it can rotate without displacement. Therefore, it can easily move around any given space. The speed is synchronized with tag reading in order to maximize read rate.

Benefits:
• Increased RFID inventory accuracy compared to handheld readers
• 2D automatic inventory
• Cost reduction in inventory taking
• Fast and easy detection of misplaced items
• Acceleration of picking for return management
• Easily moves around any given space
• Synchronized tag reading and movement
• Very high read rate

Applications:
• Retail stores
• Low-ceiling warehouses

Robin has a modular design for ease of maintenance and transport

Highest accuracy inventory system - Robin-200 is a mobile and autonomous RFID system that performs automatically the inventory of a given space, for instance, a retail store or a low-ceiling warehouse, that provides a higher RFID inventory accuracy than handheld readers.

It operates completely autonomously: the user indicates when inventories should be taken and the robot starts when it is scheduled. After each inventory, the robot goes back to its docking station to charge.

Completely autonomous - Robin-200 also locates each tagged item in 2 dimensions (x and y). This information can be processed to generate a planogram of the items inside a space.

Robin-200 can move in all directions, since it can rotate without displacement. The robot has a modular design for ease of maintenance and transport.

How does it work?
1. The first time operating on a new space, moves Robin across the space using the interface app. In this first step, the RFID subsystem is not operating.
2. This navigation guided by the user allows Robin to generate automatically a map of the space. This mapping process only needs to be performed again if the layout of the space changes significantly.
3. The user schedules when Robin should perform inventories. For instance, everyday at 8pm. At the indicated time, Robin starts moving autonomously accross the space, reading and locating the RFID tags and storing this information.
4. When it has finished the inventory, it navigates back to its docking station to charge.

Robin-200 includes:
    RFID system with 8 antennas, 4 on each side, capable of achieving very high read rate and a high location accuracy.
    Navigation system.
    Anti-collision sensors.
    App for controlling Robin with a smart phone or tablet.
    Docking and charging station.
