Dingo Indoor Mobile Robot
Clearpath RoboticsThe Dingo Indoor Mobile Robot is a compact, lightweight indoor research platform manufactured by Clearpath Robotics (a Rockwell Automation company), available in differential-drive (Dingo-D) and omnidirectional/mecanum-wheel (Dingo-O) variants. It features a low-profile aluminum chassis (551×517×110 mm, 9.1 kg), a 20 kg payload capacity, 1.3 m/s top speed, and native ROS/ROS2 and Gazebo integration with a PACS™ mounting system for sensors and accessories. The platform is designed as a research and education tool, with demonstrated use in autonomous navigation, mobile manipulation, and mapping at institutions including Delft University of Technology and Polytechnique Montréal. Autonomy is platform-level: the Dingo provides the hardware and software substrate for autonomous behaviors, which researchers implement and validate; it does not ship as a turnkey autonomous product performing a fixed task.

Evidence-graded claims from the Clearpath Robotics deep report
Clearpath Robotics partnered with Open Robotics to manufacture and distribute the TurtleBot 4, with over 16,000 TurtleBots sold/distributed.
CBInsights [7], an independent commercial intelligence source, cites the 16,000+ TurtleBot figure and the Open Robotics partnership, providing third-party corroboration beyond vendor PR — though the exact split between TurtleBot 4 and prior models, and whether all units were sold vs. distributed free, remains unverified.
from Clearpath Robotics deep report →Rockwell Automation completed the acquisition of Clearpath Robotics and OTTO Motors, integrating both the research and industrial divisions.
Rockwell Automation's official press release [10] and CBInsights [7] — an independent commercial intelligence platform — both confirm the completed acquisition, providing corroboration from a non-vendor source, though financial terms of the deal remain undisclosed.
from Clearpath Robotics deep report →
OTTO Motors AMRs are fully autonomous for material handling — performing repetitive, often dangerous material-moving tasks without a human driving or performing the task itself.
Only vendor (Clearpath blog [6]) and acquirer (Rockwell Automation press release [10]) sources describe the AMRs as autonomous; no independent teardown, third-party review, or user-community report in the dossier confirms that zero human teleoperation or remote task execution occurs in practice.
from Clearpath Robotics deep report →Clearpath's research UGV platforms (Husky, Jackal, Warthog) are deployed across mining, military, agriculture, aerospace, and academia.
Sector deployment is confirmed only by vendor blog [5] and Rockwell press release [10]; no independent customer case study, procurement record, or third-party field report in the dossier verifies actual operational deployment at scale in any of these sectors.
from Clearpath Robotics deep report →OTTO Motors raised a $29 million Series C round to expand its autonomous mobile robots globally.
The $29M Series C is reported by the vendor's own blog [6] and referenced in CBInsights [7], but no independent financial news outlet or regulatory filing in the dossier independently confirms the round's close, terms, or investor identities beyond BDC Capital.
from Clearpath Robotics deep report →
OTTO Motors industrial AMRs are deployed at scale in manufacturing and warehouse facilities (not merely in pilot or demo stages).
No independent customer testimonial, site audit, fleet count, or third-party case study in the dossier confirms large-scale operational deployment; all deployment claims trace back to vendor blog [6] and acquirer press release [10], with zero independent verification of deployment breadth or customer outcomes.
