About Buzzy Bot Robotisk Leveringskøretøj

Moderne e-handel kræver hurtig levering af varer i smalle bygader såvel som til svært tilgængelige destinationer. Buzzy Bot er et robotisk leveringskøretøj med i alt 34 automatiserede skuffer til opbevaring af varer ved forskellige krævede temperaturer. Den har en fragtdrone til transport af pakker til mere fjerne steder. Hjul med en adaptiv ledmekanisme overvinder nemt forhindringer på ujævnt terræn. Den uafhængige rotation af alle hjul muliggør nem manøvrering i trange rum. Det elektriske drivsystem drives af solid-state-batterier og yderligere solpaneler på køretøjets tag.

Production Technology
The chassis is made of an alloy of light metals such as aluminum and titanium. Stainless steel is used for mechanical kinetic assemblies where high strength and resistance to shocks and moisture are required. External formwork and smaller parts are made from thermoformed and injection-molded plastics. Darkened - transparent doors of compartment are made of polycarbonate with implemented transparent Oled (Organic Led) displays.
Design Challenge
The task of analyzing and positioning all the necessary electromechanical assemblies of the vehicle with the desired aesthetics, into a very complex functional unit that moves on the roads. By combining the organic soft shapes of the main body with the geometrized structure of joint-mechanisms, large wheels and batteries, a specific futuristic design was obtained. The vehicle's primary communication with the client required the design of a completely new audio and visual intelligible interface.
Research
In the last ten years, statistical research in the fields of trade and sales has shown that online shopping, ordering of various types of goods and their delivery is constantly increasing, more than 10 % annually.
The biggest problem with current small delivery robots on the market is one or few deliveries per one ride. After one delivery, the robot must return to the base to receive the next package. In that way, a lot of time is lost between two clients. A large fleet of robots is necessary.
Inspiration
The volumes, lines and colors of Honey Bee are the inspiration for the organic shape of the main robot body. The hexagonal shape of the storage compartments is inspired by the natural geometric shape of Honeycomb. It is main functional and aesthetic light-motive. Construction of the horse-drawn Carriages was the inspiration for the symmetrical architecture of the vehicle. For better visibility in night conditions, Led emitting strips have been installed in the aluminum rims and 4 arc blinkers.
Project Duration
The project started in September 2022 and finished in January 2023 in Belgrade, Serbia.
Operation Flow
The system of independent rotation of all four wheels by 90 degrees, allows efficient and fast maneuvering and parking in confined areas. Vehicle can move in all 4 directions. Indoor Climate Micro-System enables the transport of hot or cold food. Oled info-display on each different colored hexagonal compartment shows temperature and order Client Code. Robot has a built-in QR scanner and contactless payment credit card reader. In this way, it is possible to pay directly on the robot itself.
