Pliabot® Technology Helps Cross the "Four Red Lines"
Mature Commercial Solutions Perfectly Fit Large-Scale DeploymentNeeds
Currently, the accelerated implementation and expansion ofintelligent driving across various scenarios are redefining transportation,mobility, and operational models in the unmanned era across industries."Human-vehicle separation" has transformed unmanned charging from along-term need into an immediate necessity. Demand for automatic chargingacross various industries and scenarios is rapidly emerging, and automaticcharging robots have become a highly certain track. However, in commercialdeployment, market feedback generally indicates that relevant solutions stillneed to cross the "Four Red Lines" of automatic charging scenarios:
Safe Interaction – No injury to humans,vehicles, or charging ports throughout the entire process. For example, robotsshould be able to intelligently identify unexpected risks, avoid forcedinsertion/removal, and ensure charging port safety.
High Fault Tolerance – Ensuring chargingsuccess at all times. This means inherent system errors and sensor deviationsmust not affect plugging/unplugging, and outdoor operations must resistexternal interference.
Environmental Protection – Must handlecomplex outdoor scenarios, with high IP ratings, wide temperature tolerance,and resistance to weather and lighting interference on sensors.
Easy Deployment & Maintenance – Must becompatible with various installation and usage needs, including existingcharging posts and parking layouts, flexible unlocking in unexpectedsituations, and timely fault handling.
Faced with these real-world challenges, Pliabot® soft technologyoffers a unique technological pathway within the industry – innovating at the fundamental levels of materials and actuation,replacing traditional rigid structures with bionic soft muscles. Throughpneumatic actuation and neuronic intelligence, robots are inherently capable ofsafe interaction with the environment, particularly leveraging the powerfulgeneralization ability of Pliabot® embodied intelligence to achieve highcompatibility across tasks, equipment, and environments – perfectly aligning with the requirements of automatic chargingscenarios and large-scale deployment.
For example, native intelligent safety interaction – based on the inherent collision safety of the Pliabot® body,combined with AI adaptive active adjustment, it avoids injury to humans,vehicles, and charging ports, achieving truly human-like interaction safety.Pliabot® joints offer adaptive alignment and buffering natively – without complex high-precision force or vision solutions. With"trunk-like" dexterity and "human-hand-like" high faulttolerance, they achieve smooth plugging/unplugging at 0.2mm precision,eliminating sticking or poor fit issues. Bionic soft materials are highlydustproof and waterproof, enabling long-term stable service in harsh outdoorenvironments, unaffected by weather or lighting changes. In terms of deploymentand maintenance, an ultra-high load-to-weight ratio of 2000:1 combined with aretractable configuration makes the structure compact, flexible, and freelydeployable, compatible with various charging guns, posts, and cables,significantly lowering deployment and operation barriers.
Most notably, regarding the ever-increasing "precision"demands of various traditional solutions, the differences in the Pliabot®embodied intelligence technical route and underlying technology bring distincttechnology and cost advantages. When a solution demands extremely highprecision, it inevitably reduces generalization/fault tolerance – leading to failures during plugging/unplugging due to vehicle type,parking conditions, external influences, difficulty adapting to different guns,posts, and cables, or imposing stringent deployment and operational environmentrequirements. In stark contrast, Pliabot® embodied intelligence uses physicalflexibility to greatly enhance system adaptability. Coupled with real-worlddata-driven embodied AI capabilities, it achieves low data requirements + highsuccess rates + strong generalization while significantly reducing precisiondemands. This makes it easy to handle various vehicle types, guns, posts,cables, and deployment scenarios, maintaining extremely high mission successrates even amidst changing external conditions.
Based on this technology core, combined with in-depth operationalexploration and extensive commercial delivery experience, Wisson Robotics hasdeveloped a mature, complete, and rapidly deployable industry flagship"Pliabot® Charge" automatic charging solution. This fully in-housedeveloped solution leverages AI adaptation from Pliabot® embodied intelligenceand the native safety of the Pliabot® body, combined with visual-tactile AI toachieve ultra-high fault tolerance. It supports all-weather operation from -30°C to 60°C and is dustproof and waterproof.At the same time, "Pliabot® Charge" integrates vehicle, robot, andstation data coordination for full-domain intelligent interoperability. Itsupports OTA remote upgrades and cloud-based intelligent management, providinglong-term support and maintenance. Paired with convenient mobile service, itenables faster on-site deployment. Additionally, the 2000:1 high load-to-weightratio, compact layout, and mechanical-electrical separation design allow forflexible deployment and efficient maintenance. Most importantly, the alreadymature and continuously evolving multi-scenario deployment and operationsolutions support rapid replication and the establishment of business closedloops across scenarios.
Accelerating Nationwide Multi-Scenario Commercial Deployment
Helping Customers Across Industries Achieve Unmanned OperationVisions
To fully meet the diverse needs of different customers andscenarios, the "Pliabot® Charge" automatic charging solutioncurrently includes forms such as the CF1 Fixed Pliabot® Automatic ChargingRobot and the CS1 Sliding Pliabot® Automatic Charging Robot. These are suitablefor various single-point testing, display, and usage needs, quickly enhancingstation intelligent operation capabilities and brand image, while alsosupporting multi-bay services to efficiently meet actual operational needs inunmanned terminals, mines, delivery, Robotaxi, Robobus, and other scenarios.Among these, in addition to the full range of "Pliabot® Charge"technical advantages, the CF1 features an ultra-large service radius andflexible side/rear deployment, while the CS1 highlights its "one robot formultiple vehicles" linear deployment scale advantage. Currently, thesesolutions have been rapidly deployed and operated in multiple locations acrossChina. These numerous early customer field operation validations fullydemonstrate the mature, comprehensive solution capabilities and strongcommercial replicability of "Pliabot® Charge."
Beyond numerous commercial cases, Wisson is also promoting theapplication and popularization of automatic charging through public socialservices. Among them, the first public "Robot+" automatic chargingpop-up experience station in Chengdu served over 1,200 car owners, 1,300+vehicle trips, and 100+ different car brands within one month, achieving theindustry's first high-utilization paid automatic charging service experience – marking the acceleration of automatic charging technology fromclosed testing to large-scale commercial application. Meanwhile, an"unmanned" public experience event held in Beijing, featuring a trulyhands-off, user-independent operation environment, achieved extremely high userautonomy and further accelerated the unmanned station operation process of the"Pliabot® Charge" automatic charging solution.
From grid energy stations to OEMs, from Robotaxi/Robobus fleets topublic charging stations, from unmanned terminals/mines to transportation hubs,urban commercial complexes, and government demonstration stations, WissonRobotics is taking "Covering All Unmanned Autonomous DrivingScenarios" as the strategic goal of its automatic charging business line.Through deep cooperation with OEMs, station operators, energy infrastructuremanufacturers, unmanned operation providers, local governments, and other partners,Wisson is accelerating the deployment of scenario-specific solutions, helpingcustomers across various industries and scenarios realize their unmannedoperation visions – whether creating a high-end,futuristic customer experience, achieving "zero-manual" safe andefficient operation zones, or supporting full closed-loop unmanned fleetoperations.
