Features of G- SPIDER Robot

• Efficient Operation: It is designed to function efficiently even during high water levels and continuous flow conditions.
• Advanced Technology

• • It is built on Cable-Driven Parallel Robotics (CDPR) architecture and powered by AI-enabled vision and sensor intelligence.
  • It has a five-degrees-of-freedom robotic mechanism, equipped with a biomimetic claw-type grabber, ensures accurate positioning and secure handling of mixed and irregular debris.
  • It enables precise detection, assessment, and removal of accumulated waste.
  • By using advanced machine vision, the system autonomously identifies and adapts to different waste types, flow conditions, and structural challenges in real time.
• The extracted waste is directly transferred into designated collection vehicles, enabling a fully hands-free and end-to-end canal cleaning process— from detection to safe disposal.
• Uninterrupted Maintenance: It ensures uninterrupted and consistent maintenance of urban waterways.
• Safe Waste Extraction: It is capable of safely extracting mixed and hazardous waste—including plastics, sharp debris, and other harmful materials.
