Worlds first fuel cell powered security-guard-robot

Munich. Germany and Singapore

Roboguard is able to operate autonomously and maintenance-free for up to a month without intervention.

SFC Energy has integrated its flagship product Efoy Pro fuel cells into Roboguard, an innovative autonomous Security Robot developed by Oneberry Technologies in Singapore.

Oneberry Technologies developed Roboguard in order to address manpower shortage in the Singapore security sector while increasing productivity and raising the level of security for public clients. Oneberry Technologies is an established award-winning innovative security and surveillance solutions provider and is SFC Energy’s exclusive partner in Singapore. Recently Oneberry had won a multi-year tender for providing the most reliable integrated off-grid security and surveillance solutions for public and state security.

Powered by SFC Energy’s Efoy Pro fuel cells, Roboguard is able to operate autonomously and maintenance-free for up to a month without intervention. All required is a simple minute fast hot swap of the fuel cartridge. Roboguard can be deployed anywhere in just minutes, freeing existing security personnel from foot-patrol duties and allowing them to perform higher value skilled tasks.

“Without a reliable power source even the most innovative security solution is useless. Having to change batteries every few hours or to get a robot to change “shifts” for recharging is very unproductive and very costly. A reliable and autonomous power source is key to any mission, especially in surveillance situations where downtime is critical”, says Ken Pereira, Oneberry Technologies CEO.

“In security and surveillance applications our Efoy Pro fuel cell is a proven enabling technology”, says Dr. Peter Podesser, CEO of SFC Energy. “As reliable off-grid power is a decisive prerequisite in the functionality of more and more systems used independent of grid power we see a substantial potential for our fuel cells in markets on a worldwide basis.”
