Pty Ltd
Solutions Focused Engineering
Page 1 of 6
In 2009, Freelance Robotics was created with the objective of offering Research and Development (R&D) services to industry, small business, and university groups. We develop concrete solutions to problems that can make a bridge between research and commercialisation. Depending on the customer’s problem, we offer a range of R&D services in robotics as well as its subtrades of electronics, IT, mechanics, physics, artificial intelligence and control systems. With this breadth of knowledge, we can help improve productivity with robotised solutions, develop new patentable products, or improve an existing system. We also offer consultancy services for inhouse projects.

Our Developmental Approaches
Page 4 of 6
Research TeamsDevelop prototypes adapted to experimental research needs. Depending on the target industry, we can also help source:
➢ Manufacturers ➢ Investors ➢ Engineering companies to convert the
prototype from proof of concept to a product.
Independent ClienteleHave an idea to patent and / or sell in mass production? Freelance Robotics can provide
➢ Independent confidential consultancy➢ Proof of concept to validate ideas➢ Progress to patent / industrialisation.
Inventions vary dramatically. Development processes are tailored to client needs.
Industrial BusinessAutomated machines can improve cost effectiveness, productivity, and minimise high risk situations or injury to employees.
Process Improvements:➢ Pattern recognition systems➢ Automated processes ➢ Information extraction
Automated Vehicles:➢ Navigate and interact in repetitive,
dangerous, difficult access areas
Research and Development (R&D):➢ New product / concept development➢ Improve / customise existing product
