As industrial automation continues to evolve, robotic arms are increasingly used for material handling, sorting, assembly, and vision-based picking. These applications require more than simple motor control. A robotic arm control system needs to combine multi-axis motion control, machine vision, industrial communication, HMI, and reliable system management. In this project, KICKPI developed an RK3566-based robotic […]
Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) require more than basic motor control. They need to process multiple sensor inputs, perform real-time AI inference, run SLAM algorithms, and make navigation decisions in dynamic environments. For this project, KICKPI developed a high-performance RK3588 robot control board for an AMR application targeting smart warehouses, factories, and logistics centers. The solution […]
Introduction As robotic lawn mowers move toward more intelligent and autonomous operation, traditional navigation and control architectures are increasingly unable to meet the requirements of outdoor environments. For a recent robotic mower ODM project, KICKPI developed an embedded control solution based on Rockchip RK3576, integrating AI vision, GNSS/RTK positioning, wireless connectivity, and MCU-based motor control […]
As inspection robots are increasingly used in power, industrial, and smart facility applications, the ability to process multiple sensor streams and perform AI analysis locally has become increasingly important. KICKPI developed an RK3588-based AI inspection robot control board integrating multi-camera vision, infrared and thermal imaging, LiDAR, AI processing, 5G communication, and industrial connectivity. The solution […]
Project Overview For power distribution and smart grid applications, reliable field data acquisition is essential for monitoring electricity meters, sensors, and other electrical equipment. In this project, KICKPI developed a custom embedded board based on the Allwinner T113-S3 for a power data acquisition terminal. The board was designed to collect data from multiple meters and […]
Project Overview As power infrastructure becomes increasingly digitalized, substations require more intelligent and automated inspection solutions. Traditional manual inspection can be time-consuming and may not provide continuous monitoring of critical equipment. KICKPI developed a custom RK3576-based AI substation inspection terminal designed for intelligent visual inspection in power substations. The system integrates multi-camera image acquisition, infrared […]
As AGV and autonomous mobile robots become increasingly common in smart factories, warehouses, logistics centers, and industrial automation, robot manufacturers are looking for more compact and integrated computing platforms. In this project, KICKPI developed a custom RK3568-based control board for an AGV robot, replacing a traditional industrial PC architecture with a more integrated ARM-based solution. […]
Project Overview A smart home brand needed a customized wall-mounted smart home control panel to provide centralized control for lighting, air conditioning, curtains, door locks, security devices, and other connected home appliances. The customer was looking for an embedded mainboard solution with reliable Android support, wireless connectivity, voice interaction, OTA updates, and low-power operation for […]
As robotics move toward smaller, smarter, and more energy-efficient designs, choosing the right embedded computing platform becomes critical. Microduck, a compact desktop biped robot, provides an interesting example of how Rockchip RK3566 can be used beyond traditional applications such as industrial HMI, POS terminals, and smart displays. The platform combines Linux computing, AI inference, sensor […]
