Description of Features

Item Delivery

GL-H2 is equipped with two large-capacity item delivery bays, making it suitable for a variety of delivery scenarios such as the delivery of take-out, common disposable goods, wines and drinks. Through unmanned operation, it enables multi-point delivery and replaces the service staff, thus reducing the operating costs of hotels, office buildings, and other places.
The robot supports cross-floor delivery, autonomous elevator calling and taking, and autonomous path-finding.
Example of item delivery process The service staff will perform operations on the screen, place the items into the delivery bay, and enter the room number. Then, the robot will automatically deliver items to the corresponding room and make a call to notify the customer. After the delivery, the robot will return to the charging station automatically.
The robot has two delivery bays. Different from traditional services, it can be dispatched at will. By enabling multi-point delivery at a time, it reduces labor costs while improving operational efficiency.
When the robot is in use, the service staff will run the App on the screen, place the items into the delivery bay, and enter the room number. Then, the robot will automatically deliver items to the corresponding room and call the room phone to notify the customer. After the delivery, the robot will return to the charging station automatically.
Step 1: Home Delivery Services Tap “Home Delivery Services”. Enter the room number, put the items into the bay, and then tap “Start Delivery”.

Step 2: Deliver items to the target room After receiving the delivery task, the robot will autonomously plan the path. After reaching the target room, it will notify the user of item pick-up via a call.

Step 3: Pick up the items The user picks up the items by following the instructions on the screen and taps “Close”.

Step 4: Return automatically After the user picks up the items, the robot will return automatically.

Guide Service

GL-H2 supports the customer guide service. With the machine vision and lidar, it allows for autonomous localization and navigation as well as smart obstacle avoidance. It can move autonomously in indoor environments and guide customers to the designated location.

Autonomous Path-Finding and Obstacle Avoidance

GL·H2 is equipped with SLAM localization and navigation, which enables automatic navigation and path-finding, elevator self-riding, automatic obstacle and pedestrian avoidance, and accurate delivery of items to the destination.

Smart Elevator Control

GL·H2 supports delivery in multi-story buildings by elevator self-riding. It can enter, call, and exit the elevator automatically, avoid obstacles and provide voice alerts when entering and exiting the elevator.

Autonomous Recharging

The robot automatically checks whether the battery is sufficient during the  tasks. When the battery level falls below a preset threshold, the robot will automatically return to the charging station for recharging and continue to work when fully charged.

360° Protection

The robot uses multi-sensor fusion methods such as dual-depth cameras, magnetic  sensors, bumper sensors, lidar, and ultrasound to accurately identify and avoid moving, static, and suspended obstacles. It also has fall-resistant and collision-resistant protection and emergency stop features, making the delivery process fully protected, secure, and reliable.

Unmanned Delivery

GL·H2 responds in real time from the moment it receives a delivery request from a customer. It provides intelligent, targeted delivery for customers without manual intervention through functions including autonomous localization, autonomous path-finding, smart elevator control, safe moving, pickup notification and autonomous recharging.

Cloud Management Platform

The Gargantua smart cloud management platform enables real- time monitoring of robot devices. Leveraging features of online management, information statistics, and device monitoring, it is capable of providing exclusive, accurate data models for hotels or business buildings, thus empowering them to improve overall operation capability and service quality.

2. Remove the bubble wrap and four corner pads.

1. Remove the packaging.
2. Remove the front bubble wrap at the lower part and push down the product along the wooden pallet.
   

Position of the Charging Station

Make sure the charging station is placed against a wall with sufficient space left around it, that is, more than 0.35m on both sides and more than 1m at the front. Do not place the robot next to a mirrored wall or in a hollowed-out area. *Do not place the charging station on soft ground (such as a carpet) which will cause height difference and make the robot fail to charge.
*During actual application, mark the location of the charging station to prevent incorrect recovery after moving.

Power-up & Power-off

Power-up:Long press the power switch until the power switch indicator  lights up Power off: Long press the power switch until the power switch indicator goes off. Note: when using for the first time, place the charging pile against the wall and plug in the power supply, ensure that the power indicator of the charging pile is green, push the robot onto the charging pile (the charging port is aligned with the charging pile), and the machine will start automatically.

Initial Use

Power On Configuration For initial use, contact the technical personnel for configuration after the robot is powered on.

Charging

Align the charging pad of the robot with the charging electrode of the charging station. When the front light band of the robot lights up, the charging process starts.

Emergency Stop & Brake Release  Button and Reset

1. Emergency stop button description
   Pressing the  emergency stop button will immediately stop the robot and abort all motion control commands. Also, it is hard to push the robot manually. After the abnormal state is rectified, the emergency stop button can be reset according to the indicated direction. After the robot is restarted, it will work normally.
   In an emergency, pressing the emergency stop button will immediately stop the robot and abort all motion control commands. Also, it is hard to push the robot manually.
2. Brake release button description Pressing the brake release button will immediately stop the robot and abort all motion control commands. However, the robot can be manually pushed, for example, to the charging station. After the brake release button is released, the robot will work normally and it is hard to push it manually. The robot will perform tasks normally after receiving a new control command.
   

Debugging Port

The commissioning port is generally used for factory commissioning, firmware upgrade, and after-sales maintenance.

Maintenance

General Maintenance

Automatic door — Clean the automatic door regularly.

Bay — Wipe the inside of the bay with a soft dry cloth in power-off state.

Water collection tray — Push the water collection tray backward with both hands for a certain distance, and take it out. Then, open the cover and clear the water in the tray.

Charging station — Use a soft dry cloth to wipe the charging station and charging electrode in power-off state.

Maintenance Frequency

Robot maintenance primarily includes bay cleaning and inspection, hatch slot inspection, clearance inspection around the radar, foreign matter inspection around drive wheel and universal wheel, and charging station inspection.

The maintenance frequency can be adjusted based on the environment, frequency, intensity, and temperature of robot use.

Special Notes

Charging Station Deployment

To avoid faults or damage, do not use the robot in the following scenarios:

1. Overloading transportation
   Do not tray more than 15kg items in a single pallet.
2. Passing obstacle height
   Please ensure that there are no obstacles higher than 20mm in front of the robot, since the robot can only pass obstacles with a maximum height of 20mm. Avoid having the robot take paths across uneven ground or other surfaces with large variations in height.
3. Mechanical impact
   Do not push or hit the robot.
4. Temperature/humidity
   Do not use or store the robot in wet locations, or overly hot or humid environment.
5. Ground obstacles
   Please make sure that the robot’s path is clean and free of obstacles such as cables or other items.
6. Hatch foreign objects
   Do not place foreign objects into the gap between the hatch and the bay when the hatch is fully open. 7Outdoor use Do not use the robot outdoors.
7. Use the robot only at altitudes below 2000m.

Actions to Take in Case of a Fault that Cannot Be Rectified
