Factory SRE is a mobile robotic first responder for factory downtime.
Factory SRE is a mobile robotic first responder for factory downtime.
A Unitree Go2 robot with a top-mounted SO-101 arm, wrist camera, AprilTag perception, and magnetic service end-effector patrols a warehouse of automated workstations. When monitoring detects that a workstation has failed, the robot autonomously plans a route, identifies the correct station from its AprilTag, approaches its service panel, and holds its magnetic diagnostic tool on the dock for five seconds to establish physical out-of-band access.
It then runs a tightly whitelisted recovery—initially restarting a failed vision service—verifies the workstation is online again, logs the incident, and continues to the next failure before returning to its rest position.
The project demonstrates the missing link in factory monitoring: when a machine is offline and remote software access is unavailable, the robot physically brings diagnostic access to it.
