Problem
Robotic teams using ROS often struggle with manual deployment, limited visibility into robot performance, and difficulty scaling fleets across environments, leading to increased downtime and operational overhead.
Solution
Robotair provides a DevOps platform tailored for ROS‑based robots that automates software deployment, continuous integration, and configuration management across single units and large fleets. The platform offers real‑time monitoring dashboards, health alerts, and log aggregation to help operators detect and resolve issues quickly. Built‑in scaling tools enable seamless rollout of updates to multiple robots while maintaining version consistency and compliance. Integration with existing CI/CD pipelines and ROS tooling allows developers to push code changes from source control to robots with a single command, reducing manual effort and error rates. Robotair’s cloud‑native architecture supports on‑premise or hybrid deployments, giving organizations flexibility to manage robots in diverse operational settings.
