Pudu Robotics Launches its Latest AI-Powered Autonomous Cleaning Robot

SHENZHEN, China, May 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Pudu Robotics, the global leader in service robotics, today launched the PUDU CC1 Pro, an AI-powered autonomous cleaning robot. The award-winning PUDU CC1 set a new benchmark with its four-in-one cleaning solution combining sweeping, scrubbing, vacuuming, and dust-mopping. Building on this successful model, the PUDU CC1 Pro advances intelligent cleaning automation with powerful AI-driven perception and decision-making integrated into every stage of the cleaning process. AI-Powered Cleaning with Autonomous Intelligence PUDU CC1 Pro elevates cleaning to a fully autonomous, closed-loop system. Equipped with advanced AI, it can detect liquid stains, recognize floor cleanliness and surface types, adjust cleaning intensity, verify cleaning results, and even monitor the status of its own components. This intelligent autonomy improves cleaning consistency and effectiveness while enabling staff to focus on supervision and strategic tasks. With a significantly expanded effective cleaning range of 5,000 to 8,000 square meters per operation, the CC1 Pro is tailored for large commercial venues, including retail centers, hospitals, airports, and industrial warehouses. Key Innovations Driving Smart Cleaning Automation Real-Time Cleaning Effect DetectionAs the world's first commercial cleaning robot equipped with a rear AI camera, CC1 Pro can continuously monitor the cleanliness of floors. If any stubborn stain remains, it marks the location on the map and automatically re-cleans the area. Upon task completion, a heat map visualizes cleaning effectiveness, helping facility managers identify stubborn spots for manual attention—fostering seamless human-robot collaboration for superior results. Adaptive Cleaning StrategyAI-driven adjustments optimize cleaning power based on dirt levels and floor type. Deep scrubbing activates in heavily soiled zones, while extended run-time mode operates on cleaner areas. It also distinguishes floor materials to apply appropriate methods—vacuuming carpets, sweeping hard floors. This smart adaptation delivers an optimal balance between cleaning effectiveness and energy efficiency. AI-Driven Spot Scrubbing for Targeted CleaningIn spot scrubbing mode, CC1 Pro leverages visual AI to autonomously identify wet or dirty spots and perform targeted scrubbing for high-efficiency cleaning—delivering up to three times greater productivity. It also generates heat maps of debris distribution, helping staff identify frequently soiled areas and optimize cleaning strategies in large-scale environments. Component Self-Monitoring & Pollution PreventionCC1 Pro is the first commercial cleaning robot capable of autonomously monitoring the condition of its cleaning components using high-precision image recognition. It can detect issues like brush or squeegee contamination from poor maintenance, which may cause streaks or water residue. The system then initiates re-cleaning or alerts staff when needed, ensuring consistent cleaning results and preventing secondary pollution. Dynamic Navigation with Visual SLAMPowered by PUDU VSLAM+, which combines Visual SLAM and Lidar SLAM, CC1 Pro navigates complex, dynamic spaces without relying on ceiling markers. It adapts in real time to layout changes and avoids static and moving obstacles, ensuring smooth operation in busy commercial environments. Visualized Intelligence for Operational TransparencyCC1 Pro provides real-time heat maps and operational dashboards that visualize key data: debris distribution, persistent stain locations, and robot performance indicators such as task completion rates and maintenance frequency. These tools empower both end users and service providers with actionable insights, optimizing cleaning efficiency and fleet management. Enhanced Durability and Maintenance Efficiency In addition to its AI features, the CC1 Pro is built with key hardware enhancements that improve durability and operational efficiency. Certified to IEC 63327 standards, the robot meets rigorous benchmarks for safety and operational quality. It offers optional self-cleaning roller brushes, along with a contour-adaptive brush chamber, and high-durability metal mesh filters, among other components. These components reduce maintenance frequency and extend the robot's operational lifespan. PUDU CC1 Pro sets a new benchmark in intelligent facility management, offering a scalable, AI-powered cleaning solution that redefines the future of commercial cleaning automation. Learn more about PUDU CC1 Pro: About Pudu Robotics Pudu Robotics, a global leader in the service robotics sector, is dedicated to enhancing human productivity and living standards through innovative robot technology.

Watch: Humanoid Robot Gets Violent In China, Attacks Factory Workers

Last Updated: In the video, the robot can be seen moving forward uncontrollably, swinging violently and dragging its stand across the factory floor. Humanoid robots are one of the most rapidly developing technological advancements in China. They are being utilised in a number of industries, including industrial manufacturing, service sectors and even entertainment. But no matter how useful they are, at last, they are machines run by AI and thus possess several risk factors. In what appeared to be a scene from a sci-fi thriller, a humanoid robot recently malfunctioned at a factory in China, causing chaos among the workers, according to FOX News. A video of the shocking incident shows a robot hanging from a construction crane. The machine unexpectedly starts to flap its limbs furiously, while two workers nearby look on in shock and nervousness. As the clip progresses, we see the robot moving forward uncontrollably, swinging violently and dragging its stand across the factory floor. The men rush to avoid being hit by the machine. Amid the chaos, the robot collapses, spilling many items from a nearby table. The video concludes with one of the workers carefully moving the machine's stand in an attempt to recover control. The video caption reads, 'In reality? A stabilization bug + a head tether = a robot in panic mode. Not a revolt—just a reminder: lab code meets the real world, chaos ensues." This comes when humanoid robots are becoming more integrated into everyday life. Earlier this year, Chinese tech startup Pudu Robotics released the D9, a robot capable of walking at 4.5 mph, ascending stairs, and maintaining balance when pushed – traits that more closely resemble human behaviour than before. Last month, 21 humanoid robots joined thousands of runners in a half-marathon in Beijing, China, offering a futuristic twist to the time-honoured test of endurance. All of these machines were developed by the Beijing Innovation Centre of Humanoid Robotics. The organisers allowed robotic participants under strict conditions. These include – the machines had to look like humans, be able to walk or run on two legs unaided, and, most importantly, not have wheels or other rolling motors. The objective was clear: if robots were to run alongside people, they needed to be human-like in terms of movement. First Published:
