Chironix, a leader in robotics integration and autonomous systems development, today announced a strategic partnership with Husarion, a renowned manufacturer of autonomous mobile robot (AMR) platforms. This collaboration positions Chironix as a key distributor for Husarion’s innovative products, including the rugged Panther Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) and the versatile ROSbot XL, across the rapidly expanding Asia-Pacific (APAC) market.
The partnership aims to make Husarion’s cutting-edge, ROS-native robotic platforms more accessible to universities, research institutions, and industrial clients throughout the APAC region. By leveraging Chironix’s deep expertise in robotics integration, local support, and market knowledge, customers can expect enhanced service and tailored solutions to meet their specific automation needs.
“We are thrilled to partner with Husarion and bring their exceptional robotic platforms to the Asia-Pacific market,” said Daniel Milford, CEO of Chironix]. “Husarion’s commitment to open-source robotics and the development of robust, adaptable AMRs aligns perfectly with Chironix’s mission to drive operational efficiency and innovation through autonomous systems. The Panther UGV and ROSbot XL are powerful tools that will undoubtedly accelerate research and the adoption of robotics in diverse industries across our region.”
Empowering Innovation with Versatile Robotics Hardware
Husarion has established a strong reputation for creating reliable and developer-friendly mobile robots. Their platforms are designed with a strong emphasis on the Robot Operating System (ROS and ROS 2), making them ideal for researchers, educators, and developers looking to build sophisticated autonomous applications.
- The Husarion Panther: This UGV is engineered for demanding outdoor and industrial environments. Its key features include an IP54/66-rated chassis, powerful BLDC motors, significant payload capacity (up to 100 kg), and flexible integration options for various sensors and manipulators. The Panther is well-suited for applications in agriculture, construction, logistics, inspection, and security.
- The Husarion ROSbot XL: A compact and agile AMR, the ROSbot XL is designed for indoor applications, particularly in research, education, and rapid prototyping. It features a 4×4 drive, compatibility with a range of Single Board Computers (SBCs) like Raspberry Pi and NVIDIA Jetson, and a universal mounting plate for easy customization with LiDARs, cameras, or small manipulators.
Dominik Nowak, CEO of Husarion, commented on the new distributorship: “Expanding our reach into the Asia-Pacific region is a key strategic goal for Husarion. Partnering with Chironix, a company with a proven track record in robotics and a deep understanding of the local market, is an exciting step forward. We are confident that Chironix’s expertise and customer-centric approach will provide excellent support and drive the adoption of our platforms for innovative projects across APAC.”
