Fujitsu Office Delivery Robot

Fujitsu has teamed up with the Yokohama National University and the University of Electro-Communications when it comes to developing an Office Delivery Robot. This bad boy is able to carry up items that weigh up to 20kg, relying on stereo vision, a laser range finder, and UWB (Ultra-wideband) TWR-TOA (two way ranging-time of arrival) for SLAM that is accurate to within 10cm to get around carefully so that nobody ends up with a bruised toe due to a wayward movement. While there are no plans to commercialize the robot, we are pretty sure certain bosses would prefer to have a mechanized drone running errands within the office as such a robot won’t stab the boss in the back at water cooler conversations.
