An autonomous supermarket robot that helps customers find products, build smart carts, and keeps store staff informed in real time.
NaviBot is an autonomous robotic navigation system designed to improve the shopping experience. Customers use a touchscreen to find products, build smart carts, and scan items while store admins monitor and control the robot remotely.
The system combines computer vision, route optimization, and a practical UI to make grocery shopping faster and more efficient.
A complete feature set for customers on the shop floor and administrators managing operations.
Search by typing or voice and navigate directly to the correct shelf location.
CustomerAdd up to five products and follow an optimized route through the store.
CustomerShow a physical shopping list to the camera and generate a full guided route.
CustomerScan products to instantly display name, price, aisle, and shelf details.
CustomerTrack robot status, battery level, and command history from one secure panel.
AdminRun aisle patrols to detect low stock and surface alerts quickly.
AdminSend NaviBot to its charging station with one command.
AdminManually dispatch the robot to any aisle for targeted support.
AdminEvery instruction is timestamped and recorded for accountability.
AdminA clean customer touchscreen and a powerful admin dashboard.
The home screen offers two clear modes for product search and camera-assisted scanning.
Product details include price in AED, stock availability, aisle location, and shelf number.
The admin panel includes live status, battery tracking, manual controls, command logs, and stock alerts.
