Company Profile
Autonomous Mobile Robots, engineered for the real world.
Merro Robotics is a robotics engineering and manufacturing company focused on the design and development of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) for real-world deployment across industrial, commercial, and public environments. Our integrated platforms combine omni-directional mobility, multi-modal perception, autonomous navigation, edge computing, real-time control, human-machine interfaces, and cloud-based fleet management into a unified system.
We are focused on a practical challenge: enabling autonomous machines to operate reliably in environments where people, infrastructure, and robots share the same physical space — from airport terminals and commercial malls to retail and enterprise facilities.
Our Mission: to make autonomous robotics a practical part of everyday infrastructure.
Merro Robotics develops intelligent mobile machines capable of performing useful physical and digital services while navigating complex human environments autonomously.
Rather than building robots for isolated laboratory conditions, our platform architecture is designed around the realities of deployment: pedestrian traffic, constrained spaces, changing environments, service interactions, operational monitoring, safety intervention, and long-term fleet management.
Built for the Real World
Autonomy, engineered to move among people.
Products
Autonomous platforms, built to deploy.
A shared, modular AMR base scales into a family of platforms — from single-unit logistics movers to coordinated multi-robot fleets and interactive service units.
Autonomous Logistics Mover
A low-profile omni-directional AMR for point-to-point material transport. Slots under carts and payloads, navigates via SLAM without floor tracks, and adapts speed to pedestrian traffic.
Coordinated Multi-Robot Fleet
Multiple AMRs operating as one connected system — cloud orchestration handles traffic control, charging routing, and health monitoring across the entire deployment via MQTT telemetry and OTA updates.
Interactive Service & Delivery
Extends the AMR with dual LED displays, a capacitive touchscreen, and a temperature-controlled compartment — for mobile food, beverage, and retail service that engages people while it moves.
Technology Platform
Omni-Directional Mobility.
The Merro platform is built around a Mecanum-wheel omni-directional drive system — moving forward, backward, laterally, and rotationally without conventional steering — for high maneuverability in constrained spaces and unpredictable pedestrian zones.
Omni-directional movement
Forward, backward, lateral, and rotational travel without conventional steering.
Precision positioning
High-precision destination alignment and fine placement for reliable service hand-off.
Tight turning & lateral translation
Seamless navigation through narrow corridors and crowded layouts.
Environment-specific speed limiting
Operating parameters adapt to pedestrian density and safety requirements.
Autonomous Navigation & Perception
Multi-modal perception for dynamic indoor environments.
Merro combines multiple sensing technologies into a comprehensive perception and navigation system that continuously responds to people, objects, and change.
LiDAR
Accurate geometric ranging and environmental perception for obstacle detection and navigation.
RGB-D Cameras
Visual information combined with depth perception for richer environmental awareness.
360° Sensor Coverage
Distributed sensing around the robot provides broad situational awareness and reduces blind zones.
SLAM
Simultaneous Localization and Mapping builds and uses spatial representations while tracking the robot's own position.
ROS 2 & Nav2
Modular middleware plus the Nav2 framework for path planning, navigation execution, obstacle handling, and recovery behaviors.
Compute & Control Architecture
High-level intelligence, separated from real-time safety control.
A layered computing architecture separates autonomous intelligence from deterministic low-level vehicle control — essential where intelligence and physical safety must coexist.
NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano
Onboard edge computing for intensive robotics workloads including perception and autonomous navigation.
ROS 2
The software layer connecting perception, navigation, application, and control functions.
STM32 Control
Dedicated microcontrollers for motor control and hardware-level safety interfaces.

Intelligent Service Platform
Beyond transport — a mobile service & interaction platform.
Displays & touch interfaces
Dual LED display panels for information, branding, and service messaging, plus capacitive touchscreens for direct human-machine interaction.
Food & beverage delivery
Temperature-controlled compartments enable mobile food and beverage service, adding an engineering layer of temperature management, hygiene, and food-safety handling.
Deployment Environments
Designed to operate directly alongside people.
Airports
High pedestrian density and strict operational requirements across:
- Landside passenger concourses
- Security-queue & gate-hold areas
- Passenger waiting zones
- Service & hospitality areas
Shopping Malls & Retail
A mobile service unit and digital interaction platform at once:
- Mobile food & beverage service
- Product delivery & customer assistance
- Digital information & wayfinding
- Promotional communication
Enterprise & Industrial
Adapted for controlled operational workflows:
- Internal service logistics
- Material movement & point-to-point delivery
- Facility support & repetitive transport
- Human-robot collaborative workflows
Safety Engineering
Safety as a system-level requirement.
Safety spans mechanical design, electrical architecture, autonomous navigation, battery management, hardware controls, and operating procedures.
Robotics Safety
References ISO 3691-4 (driverless industrial trucks) and ISO 13482 (human-interactive robots), with dedicated physical E-stops, controlled speeds, and obstacle detection.
Battery & Electrical Safety
Battery-management and protection referencing IS 16046 and UN 38.3, with a BMS providing monitoring, protection, and controlled battery operation.
Food-Service Safety
Temperature-controlled compartments aligned with applicable FSSAI requirements — covering hygiene, cleaning, temperature management, and safe service operations.
Data & Digital Infrastructure
Connected architecture aligned with India's DPDP Act 2023 — anonymized operational telemetry and privacy-conscious deployment in public environments.
Manufacturing Architecture
A modular platform built from eight core assemblies.
Each functional assembly can be independently manufactured, tested, integrated, serviced, and upgraded — enabling repeatable assembly and deployment-specific customization.
Mechanical System
Chassis, structural assemblies, drive components, and Mecanum-wheel modules.
Power System
Battery, BMS, power distribution, and electrical protection.
Compute System
Jetson edge computer, communications, and onboard electronics.
Control System

Software System
ROS 2, Nav2, SLAM, perception, navigation, control, and application software.
Fleet Management
A connected operational ecosystem, not isolated machines.
Local autonomy + edge computing + cloud connectivity + fleet intelligence — each robot decides locally while the wider fleet is monitored and managed centrally.
MQTT Telemetry
Lightweight messaging exchanges telemetry between robots and cloud services for centralized visibility.
OTA Updates
Over-the-air updates maintain software and system components remotely, reducing physical intervention.
Operational Dashboards
Real-time dashboards give visibility into robot status and fleet activity for monitoring and coordination.
Engineering Philosophy
Five principles behind every Merro platform.
Robots should perceive, navigate, and perform their assigned functions with minimal manual intervention.
Systems must be designed for environments where people are present continuously.
Hardware and software should support multiple applications without an entirely new platform.
Individual robots should operate as part of an integrated fleet-management ecosystem.
Engineering must address manufacturing, maintenance, safety, and real-world operation — not only lab performance.
Merro Robotics
