Singapore, April 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SIMPPLE Ltd. (NASDAQ: SPPL) (“SIMPPLE” or “the Company”), a leading technology provider and innovator in the facilities management (FM) sector, today announced the launch of its latest innovation in robotics – brand-named Orion, a multi-functional robot equipped with real-time security surveillance, on-demand digital concierge support, and intelligent spot cleaning and sweeping capabilities. SIMPPLE’s Orion robot made its official debut at Kings Club, Melbourne. The private launch event, which takes place today and tomorrow, was jointly facilitated by Melbourne-based property management firm Above OCM and technology integrator Australian Robot Technology. Clients and partners of Above OCM and Australian Robot Technology were invited to witness the launch of SIMPPLE’s multi-functional robots (Gemini and Orion) in Australia.
“With increasing pressure for buildings to become safer, smarter, and more environmentally friendly, the development and launch of Orion could not be more timely. Today’s announcement underscores our commitment to innovation in the field of service robotics, delivering fit-for-purpose robotic solutions that enhance operational efficiency and cover multi-faceted integrated capabilities,” said SIMPPLE chief executive officer Norman Schroeder. “Like Gemini, Orion is the next evolution in autonomous building operations and fits well into the range of SIMPPLE Robotics line-up.”
The new Orion robot combines intelligence and safety, equipped with advanced dual compute modules housed within its modular head and robot body, delivering powerful Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) performance across both security surveillance and cleaning functions. It can also operate independently or integrate seamlessly with existing CCTV systems, allowing facilities to extend their surveillance coverage while reducing operational costs. Through its 32-beam 3D LiDAR and precision navigation, Orion can operate effectively in high-density areas while performing a variety of functions to support building service operators.
“After extensive global research, including significant time spent in Singapore studying SIMPPLE’s advanced technological capabilities, we together with Australian Robot Technology are proud to be part of the launch of Gemini and Orion robots in Australia,” said Simon Saint-John, Director of Above OCM. “Being able to integrate different facility functions and technology assets on a single platform like SIMPPLE is amazing. We see tremendous benefits deploying such robotic solutions in residential settings, to complement our staff and promote a cleaner and more secure environment for us all in Melbourne.”
According to Norman, “Being supported by Above OCM and Australian Robot Technology to launch our revolutionary multi-functional robots in Australia is definitely a meaningful milestone for us to showcase our innovative technologies in Australia and represents an exciting step in our international expansion with forward-thinking industry stakeholders to help them achieve their goals through A.I. robotics and automation.”
Today’s announcement follows the Company’s release on October 16, 2024, detailing the launch and sale of 3-in-1 multifunctional Gemini robots for Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand markets aggregating $1.0 million.
