Launches EG7 robot in the American market.
Okibo announced the opening of its U.S. headquarters in Englewood, New Jersey, and the official launch of its EG7 robot in the American market. After establishing its U.S. base in 2024, Okibo’s fully autonomous, AI-guided painting and drywall finishing robots are already active on major American construction sites, having covered more than one million square feet in Europe.
The EG7 is a next-generation, battery-powered robot requiring zero site preparation, external references, or technical expertise to operate. Unlike systems that depend on external markers or BIM tools, the EG7 uses a patented AI-driven 3D scanning and real-time modeling algorithm for navigation and execution. It can finish an average of 1,000 square feet per hour, operating completely independently—no cords, pumps, or Wi-Fi required.
Key features of the EG7 include:
- Fully Independent: No external pump, hose, cords, sensors, Wi-Fi/5G, or site prep required.
- Compact & Lightweight: Weighs just 800 pounds and is only 27 inches wide—fits through standard doorways and tight spaces.
- Modular Design: Quick-detach manipulator and interchangeable components (e.g., hopper to dust collector) for various applications.
- Omnidirectional Swerve Drive: High maneuverability in confined environments like residential, multifamily, and office projects.
- Standard Club Cart 5kWh Batteries: Reliable, long-lasting, and easily replaceable.
- CE Certified: Compliant with multiple machine safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards.
As the construction industry faces a looming labor crisis—the National Center for Construction Education and Research projects 41 percent of the workforce will retire by 2031—Okibo offers a critical solution.
