Recently, Viggo, the autonomous cleaning robot developed by Velobotics, has been deployed at Shenzhen North Railway Station, providing intelligent and high-efficiency cleaning and maintenance services for the indoor and outdoor environments of this core transportation hub in South China. This successful implementation stands as another testament to the large-scale application of Viggo in the scenario of major high-speed railway stations, fully demonstrating Velobotics’ steadfast practice of driving the intelligent upgrading of public services with innovative technology.
Faced with the cleaning challenges of over 10,000 square meters of outdoor squares and approximately 3,000 square meters of indoor halls at the station, the traditional manual cleaning model suffers from bottlenecks in efficiency and flexibility. Viggo has successfully addressed this challenge with its highly autonomous operational capabilities.
Integrating sweeping and mopping functions in one, Viggo allows for flexible scheduling of working hours to deliver high-efficiency cleaning during off-peak passenger flow periods. In actual operation, it not only features intelligent obstacle avoidance and optimal route planning to enable safe and stable work in dynamic environments, but a single unit also achieves a comprehensive operational efficiency equivalent to the regular workload of 4 to 5 manual workers. This has significantly improved the uniformity of cleaning coverage, the timeliness of operations and the overall intelligence level of cleaning management at the station.
The successful application at Shenzhen North Railway Station is no isolated case. To date, Velobotics’ Viggo has been deployed at numerous major railway hubs across China, including Nanjing South Railway Station, Hefei South Railway Station, Wuhan Railway Station, Nanchang East Railway Station, Xiamen Railway Station, Xining Railway Station, Lhasa Railway Station, Golmud Railway Station and Xintang Railway Station. This has formed an extensive coverage network for high-speed railway station scenarios, and also marks that Viggo has become a smart cleaning solution with strong market influence and excellent scenario adaptability in this field.
Velobotics has always held that the value of technology lies in empowerment. The introduction of intelligent cleaning equipment is not a simple replacement of human labor, but rather frees the workforce from repetitive physical work, redirecting them to more creative roles such as equipment operation and maintenance, service supervision and humanistic care. This in turn drives the evolution of the entire service system toward a higher-quality and more sustainable model.
Going forward, Velobotics will continue to deepen the scenario-based implementation of autonomous driving technology, empowering more public spaces and transportation hubs with mature products such as Viggo. We will join hands with partners across the board to jointly build a smarter, more efficient and sustainable new ecosystem for urban operations.
