Sheikh Badr bin Abdullah Al-Furaih, deputy president for guidance affairs of the General Presidency for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques said the robot uses a dual automatic navigation system and has a three-dimensional sensor to avoid collision with barriers and people.

The robot weighs 59 kg and can carry up to 40kg. Its speed, which can be controlled, varies between 0.5-1.2/s, and its dimensions are 565x537x1290 mm.

Al-Furaih said that the use of technology, modern applications, and artificial intelligence is one of the priorities of the head of the presidency Sheikh Abdulrahman Al-Sudais.
