N Robotics Signs Exclusive Global Supply Deal with Bibliotheca for AI Library Robot 'ROMI'
N Robotics is expanding the supply of ROMI, its artificial intelligence (AI) library robot, in partnership with Bibliotheca, a global library solutions company.
N Robotics said on October 12 that it had signed an agreement with Bibliotheca for the exclusive global supply of ROMI and a strategic partnership.
Under the agreement, the two companies will jointly expand ROMI's supply worldwide and develop new business opportunities. They expect to sell more than 100 ROMI units over the next three years and plan to expand their overseas business by combining Bibliotheca's sales and service network with N Robotics' robotics technology.
Bibliotheca has operated in the library technology sector for more than 50 years and currently supplies solutions to more than 30,000 libraries in over 70 countries. Before this agreement, the company had exported library robots to the United States, the United Kingdom, Denmark, New Zealand, Taiwan and Japan, demonstrating their technological capabilities and suitability for real-world applications.
ROMI is a user-assistance robot that combines autonomous navigation with radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology. It provides functions essential to library operations, including personalized guidance, book searches, lending and returns support, and directions to book locations.
Designed as a modular AI robot platform whose functions can be added or modified to suit different industries and operating environments, ROMI can be adapted for public services, logistics, security, and manufacturing. N Robotics plans to strengthen its software and control technologies for integration with clients' existing systems and expand its business into maintenance, system implementation, and operations services.
