BOB

With our developed helix shapes and the special arrangement of these, we are able to set new standards in driving through loose soils and granulates. Our innovative software algorithms are the fundament for efficient and effective tunnelling.

Autonomous Boring

Our adaptive drilling strategy allows us to drill autonomously through granular and loose soils while maintaining the orientation of the system.

EFFICIENT & ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

The use of Li-Ion technology and efficient DC motors enable a high efficiency of the system and create the greatest possible economic and ecological benefit for our customers.

Navigation

Various sensors enable us to calculate the current orientation of BOB. In case of deviations, BOB can react in order to reach its goal.

Acceleration & Gyroscope 

Acceleration and gyroscope sensors allow us to determine the orientation of the system. If there is a deviation from the planned boring direction, BOB reacts immediately. 

Maschine Learning & AI

Machine-learning algorithms allow us to adapt to different environments. Powerful embedded hardware creates the basis for our Boring rOBot.
