Sharp Electronics (SEC) has selected Rajant Kinetic Mesh™ technology as the wireless communications infrastructure for the Sharp INTELLOS™ Automated Unmanned Ground Vehicle (A-UGV) outdoor security robot.
The mobility, reliability and scalability of Rajant’s network were key reasons for the company’s selection.
Its BreadCrumb® radios, InstaMesh® networking software, military-grade security and cryptography support the autonomous applications and network infrastructures of some of the largest companies in the world.
How It Works
Using a combination of BreadCrumb®wireless network nodes and InstaMesh®networking software, Rajant Kinetic Mesh®networks employ any-node to any-node capabilities to continuously and instantaneously route data via the best available traffic path and frequency—for any number of nodes, all with extremely low overhead.
Rajant BreadCrumbs can communicate with any Wi-Fi or Ethernet-connected device to deliver low-latency, high-throughput data, voice and video applications across the meshed, self-healing network.
Sharp INTELLOS™ A-UGV
“The Sharp INTELLOS A-UGV outdoor security robot is a strategic investment for companies that desire a visible deterrent to potential intruders as well as an A-UGV capable of managing repetitive tasks in dangerous environments,” said Cliff Quiroga, Vice President of Sharp Robotics Business Development.

“Capturing video, audio and environmental data, and communicating that information to a command & control center, requires an advanced network,” added Quiroga.
“Rajant’s Kinetic Mesh wireless technology gives INTELLOS a best-in-class mission critical network infrastructure.”
As a mobile platform capable of traversing various terrains, the Sharp INTELLOS A-UGV provides outdoor surveillance, security, safety and maintenance inspection patrols.
The INTELLOS has an optional feature that can detect toxicity levels, capture images and sounds, and uses LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) to measure variable distances.
“The Sharp INTELLOS A-UGV extends the impact of traditional security forces, so it stands to reason that it would require a network infrastructure capable of supporting continuous connectivity and real-time communications of sensor and monitoring data,” said Bob Schena, Chairman and CEO of Rajant.
“Sharp made a commitment to bringing a best-in-class robot to market, and Rajant is proud of its contribution toward reaching that goal.”
