Mobotics recently completed the deployment of a PUDU CC1 Pro autonomous cleaning robot for Rohr Bais Chaya Academy in Coral Springs, Florida. More than a robot installation, this project integrated autonomous cleaning directly into the building's elevators, automatic doors, access-control system, and daily operations.
The result is a robot that can independently reach and clean multiple floors and secured areas without requiring staff members to escort it, operate the elevator, or repeatedly open doors.
Autonomous cleaning across multiple floors
One of the project's most important accomplishments was the elevator integration.
Working in coordination with Otis Elevator, Mobotics outfitted the building so the CC1 Pro can autonomously:
- Call the elevator
- Enter and exit the elevator
- Select its destination floor
- Navigate between floors
- Resume its assigned cleaning route after arrival
This transforms the CC1 Pro from a single-floor cleaning machine into a building-wide autonomous solution. The robot can move between cleaning zones as needed without waiting for an employee to operate the elevator.
The technical integration is only one part of a successful multi-floor deployment. Elevator timing, robot positioning, entry and exit behavior, route recovery, and real-world testing all have to work together. Mobotics relied on its experience with autonomous robot deployments and building-system integrations to coordinate these details and help ensure the project was successful.
Opening doors without human assistance
Elevators were only one part of the access challenge. The CC1 Pro's docking station is located inside a janitor closet, while other cleaning routes require access to the building's lobby, event space, and rear corridors.
Mobotics collaborated with DeerTech Security to integrate the robot with the building's access-control system and automatic door openers. This allows the CC1 Pro to leave and return to the janitor closet independently and open other integrated doors along its routes.
By eliminating the need for staff to open doors or escort the robot, the system avoids operational bottlenecks and gives the CC1 Pro reliable access to the spaces that need to be cleaned.
Protecting the academy's Italian tile floors
Automation must respect the surfaces it maintains. The academy features beautiful, high-gloss Italian tile that required a more specialized approach than a standard commercial floor-cleaning configuration.
To help preserve the tile's shine and avoid scratches that could result from conventional brushes, Mobotics equipped the CC1 Pro with specially selected, floor-safe brushes. This configuration delivers effective daily cleaning while helping protect the finish and long-term appearance of the flooring.
The CC1 Pro combines sweeping, scrubbing, vacuuming, and dust-mopping in one platform. It also uses LiDAR, visual positioning, and AI-powered perception to navigate around people and obstacles and adapt its cleaning activity to the environment.
Collaboration from construction through deployment
Successful building automation begins long before a robot starts its first cleaning route. Mobotics worked throughout the building process with Coral Springs-based I.S. Contractors, the project's builder.
That early coordination helped ensure the physical building, utilities, and access points could support the autonomous cleaning system. By involving Mobotics during construction, the team could plan for the robot's docking location, cleaning routes, elevator access, and automatic-door integrations.
Mobotics also drew on its prior deployment experience to anticipate practical challenges, coordinate the different trades and technologies, and validate the complete workflow before handoff. That experience was essential to turning several individual integrations into one dependable operating system.
The completed deployment brought together several specialized teams:
- Mobotics designed, deployed, and commissioned the robotic cleaning solution.
- I.S. Contractors coordinated with Mobotics throughout construction.
- DeerTech Security supported integration with the building's access-control system and automatic door openers.
- Otis Elevator coordinated with Mobotics on the elevator integration.
- PUDU Robotics' CC1 Pro provides autonomous navigation and versatile commercial floor care.
Beyond the robot
A truly autonomous deployment is not defined only by whether a robot can navigate a hallway. It depends on whether the robot can interact with the building around it.
At Rohr Bais Chaya Academy, the CC1 Pro can leave its docking area, pass through secured doors, call and ride the elevator, travel between floors, and reach the lobby, event space, and rear corridors, all without requiring someone to accompany it.
By combining the right technology with experienced planning, careful coordination, and customized floor-care equipment, Mobotics delivered a solution designed around the academy's specific building and operational needs.
This project demonstrates what becomes possible when robotics is considered during the building process and cleaning automation is integrated with the facility's infrastructure from the start.
