Following our CES Innovation Award, we are proud to announce that Navigate X, our industrial robotic solution utilizing an autonomous quadruped platform, has been officially selected as a Nominee for the 2026 Edison Awards with its system titled “Autonomous Quadruped-Based Safety Monitoring System.”
This recognition reflects the global validation of our efforts to build safer, smarter, and more sustainable industrial environments.
About the Edison Awards
Established in 1987 in honor of Thomas Edison, the Edison Awards are often referred to as the “Oscars of Innovation.” They recognize breakthrough technologies, products, and services across science, engineering, materials, energy, and more.
Being selected as a Nominee means NavigateX has passed the Edison Awards’ rigorous first-round evaluation and is now officially competing as a finalist candidate. With thousands of submissions from around the world, reaching Nominee status itself is considered an achievement that signifies both technological excellence and market potential.
This selection is more than an acknowledgment of technical capability. It affirms our mission to make hazardous, inaccessible industrial sites safer and more manageable through robotics and digital twin technology.
What Is NavigateX? – Technology & Platform Overview
NavigateX is an autonomous quadruped robot platform designed for continuous inspection of hazardous industrial environments. It fuses multiple sensor modalities LiDAR, IMU, 360° cameras, and environmental sensors to generate high-precision 3D digital twins, enabling real-time navigation and predictive monitoring.
In short, NavigateX is not just a robot. It is an integrated system combining:
- Digital Twin Mapping
- Autonomous Robotics
- AI-Based Navigation & Environmental Understanding
Key Features and Capabilities
1. Digital Twin Mapping
Digitizes complex sites such as factories, warehouses, shipyards, airports, and logistics hubs into accurate 3D environments. Integrates with BIM, GIS, and enterprise facility platforms
2. Autonomous Navigation & Path Optimization
Performs SLAM-based localization and route planning. Operates reliably in GPS-denied indoor and outdoor environments.
3. Remote Monitoring & Safety Management
Collects real-time data from 360° imaging and IoT sensors including gas levels, fire risks, humidity, temperature, vibration, and environmental anomalies enabling early hazard detection before human entry.
4. Predictive Maintenance & Asset Management
Detects equipment anomalies, tags irregularities, and integrates with alerting systems to support preventive maintenance and efficient site management.
Why NavigateX Matters
Industrial sites such as construction areas, shipyards, plants, and logistics hubs contain numerous zones that are:
- Hard to access
- Hazardous for human workers
- Time- and resource-intensive to inspect regularly
NavigateX allows these environments to be monitored safely and efficiently by combining robotics with digital twin technology
In safety-critical industries, having autonomous robots conduct routine patrols and inspections significantly reduces the risk of accidents. By creating real-time digital representations of facilities and collecting continuous environmental data, NavigateX accelerates the transition toward smart factories and smart plants.
Significance of the Edison Awards Nomination
NavigateX’s nomination highlights its potential to redefine industrial safety and operations:
- Continuous inspection of hazardous zones
- Integration of digital twins, autonomous robotics, and IoT sensing
- Practical impact on real-world safety and operational efficiency
Beyond technological merit, this recognition reinforces that Mobilio’s mission to digitalize industrial sites and elevate safety and efficiency is aligned with global innovation trends.
Looking Ahead
This nomination marks an important milestone in Mobilio’s journey. We will continue expanding our industrial robotics portfolio including autonomous logistics, infrastructure maintenance, and environmental monitoring solutions.
Mobilio remains committed to advancing safety, sustainability, and operational excellence through cutting-edge technology and high-quality service.
We look forward to sharing more innovations soon, and we appreciate your continued interest and support.
