About sciota robotics
sciota GmbH (brand sciota robotics), based in Dresden, develops, manufactures and customizes multi-purpose UGV platforms (Unmanned Ground Vehicles) for offroad missions with heavy payloads. The portfolio includes the standard Compact, Medium and Flex Robot Platforms, which are individually adapted to specific use cases. The vehicles feature an Arduino-based controller and a standard remote-control receiver; ROS (Robot Operating System) connects to the Arduino and enables higher-level mission control, thereby avoiding vendor lock-in. In addition, the company offers platform engineering (component selection, chassis design, software for control and navigation, GNSS/RTLS integration), a Security Framework for secure, scalable IoT device management, web-based portals for data visualization and analysis, as well as the Robotics UI, a web interface solution for ROS-2 robots. Custom special solutions such as remote-controlled security robots or robots with special equipment are also developed. Customers are found in research and development, industrial applications and security technology.
