For the map of Bellabot The site restriction is 10.000 square meters and for those by Kettybot 2.000 square meters.

Why this limit? This is due to RAM. memory limit.

Yes, the map can be expanded. With the map editor, the map can be easily enlarged or rescanned if any elements are new in the room.

It can happen that the robot "gets lost" due to a new, larger decoration in the room. So it makes sense to briefly rescan the map.

A new map must be created for this and the table seats must be reconfigured on the map.

If the old table arrangement is then restored, care should be taken to ensure that they are placed in the same place again. Otherwise, we recommend creating the map fresh.

No, unfortunately not. The robots are (still) only suitable for indoor use. Since the location is located using the laser slam system, the robot can move outdoors in sunlight

This can sometimes happen that the robot gets lost or loses its orientation.

But that's not a problem. Just put the robot back to the starting point and it will find its way again.

If this should happen several times, it can e.g. be due to large decorations being added or removed (e.g. Christmas trees). The robot does not have this on the map.

Solution: Quickly expand the map so that the decoration is on it.

If the robot notices a movement or an object that suddenly appears in front of it, it reacts within 0.2 seconds. In the event of an emergency stop, the robot flashes and must be pushed back to its starting point by an employee. From there he can reorient himself and go about his work again.

Thanks to the language pack, the robot can ask people to move out of the way for it. If this does not happen, the robot looks for a new path within the given map.

If the shelves have been selected correctly by the employee, the correct shelf will flash when the robot arrives at the guest. The tray number is also shown on the robot's display.

maintenance / care

Better not. The mats only withstand a temperature of approx. 85°.

The robot does not require regular maintenance. However, we recommend daily cleaning and careful handling. If desired, our technicians can perform a check-up and maintenance. Please contact our support team for this service.

The best way to clean the robot is with a damp cloth. It's important never to hose it down or clean it with excessive moisture. The rubber mats and individual parts of the robot should not be put in the dishwasher. Always clean all parts by hand. Occasionally, it's also a good idea to remove dust and dirt from the underside of the wheels. To do this, very carefully lay the robot on its side. Never do this alone. Sebotics assumes no liability for this procedure.

The robots are water-repellent, but should not be hosed down. The sensors are sensitive.

social aspects

Of course, there are businesses that use the robot all the way to the guest and also interact with the guest. BellaBot The robot allows for interaction. However, it is primarily used in the background: it acts as a bridge between the kitchen and the service team, thus relieving employees of distance and carrying heavy loads. The service staff remains the focus when interacting with guests.

This is a misconception. The service robot BellaBot It is intended to support existing staff. This gives the service team more time for what is truly important to restaurant owners and waiters: the guests.

Of course. The robots from Sebotics They are fully mature and receive the latest updates every quarter. This means you never have to worry about not having the most up-to-date device. Certainly, there are still many people who have a certain skepticism towards robots. We at Sebotics But thanks to our experience, we know that this skepticism disappears with a few words and a brief interaction between human and robot.
