Do you have a never-ending passion for Robotics?

If your answer is 'YES' to any of the above questions, then you’ll fit right in here at ANSCER Robotics.

Why? Imagine a world where there is harmonious coexistence between robots and humans; to challenge this status quo, we apply cutting-edge technologies in robotics and software to solve real-world scenarios whilst creating a better world and elevating the human experience.

What do we do?

Design and build modular robotic systems that can be integrated across platforms and industries to work in harsh environments, be it land, air, water or space.

We call this  "ANSCER ENGINE (AE)", which supports industry-leading performing chips to process all types of workload. It is packed with robust features like power management, I/O management, a cooling system with inbuilt gold-standard IMU and controllers. 

All this incredible efficiency has been designed specifically for robots! With a heart and brain fused in a box, we offer a perfect platform for the development of industrial-use services robotic applications such as autonomous mobile robots (AMR) and autonomous mobile industrial robots (AMIR).  Along with our software solution, we enable any developer or company to have API access to our computer vision, planning, telematics and security to build any type of robot in a brief time.

Who are we? A lean team where most of us are self-taught designers, coders, product developers, exploring the field of mechatronics and IoT.  With a highly competitive market and limited time,  we, as a bootstrapped company, are working with finite options and the choices we make are risky yet highly rewarding.
