Two Sides of One Lab
At EO Robotics, we combine real-world engineering with hands-on research and innovation.On one side, we design and develop technology solutions for businesses, organisations, and communities. From robotics and embedded systems to software and intelligent technologies, we build solutions around real challenges and the environments in which they will operate. On the other side, we experiment, prototype, and develop our own ideas. Our research projects allow us to explore what is possible, test technologies on real hardware, and turn ambitious concepts into working systems. The work we do for the real world strengthens our research. Our research helps us build better solutions for the real world. And through our workshops and Makerspace, we share that knowledge with the next generation of innovators giving young people the opportunity to design, build, and experiment with technology themselves
On the world stage
Local innovation. Global impact
Through international technology events and robotics initiatives, EO Robotics is helping showcase Zambian innovation on a global stage—while using that same knowledge and experience to build meaningful solutions for our clients.
Research
In the Lab
We build, test, and experiment. Our in-house projects give us the freedom to explore ideas, develop new technologies, and learn by creating real working systems..
Obward
Our humanoid research robot — a platform for exploring robotics, artificial intelligence and human-robot interaction. It combines embedded systems, sensors, computer vision and AI so we can experiment with intelligent robotic systems directly. Read more.
ElasticLeaf
A digital universe where AI comes to life, giving intelligent agents a body and a world to explore. It bridges the digital and physical by letting agents drive real arms, motors, actuators and sensors. Read more.
Human-Robot Interaction
How people and machines share a space and understand each other — the question Obward exists to help us answer.
Embedded Intelligence
Running perception and decision-making on the robot itself, where there is no guarantee of a network to lean on.
Engineering
What we build for clients
Machines specified against a job, delivered with the drawings, the code and the training to run them.
Mobile Platforms
Wheeled and tracked robots that navigate real floors, not test tracks.
Robotic Arms
Pick, place and inspection arms sized for small-batch manufacturing.
Autonomous Navigation
Mapping, path planning and obstacle avoidance that survives a busy room.
Teleoperation
Remote control and monitoring for machines working where people should not.
Capabilities
Mechanical design, control software, research platforms and the training to operate it all
Chassis & Mechanics
CAD design, 3D-printed and machined parts, assembly and field repair.
Motion Control
Motor drivers, encoders and closed-loop control tuned on the real hardware.
Perception
Cameras, LiDAR and ultrasonic sensing fused into a usable picture of the world.
ROS Integration
Robot Operating System stacks so your platform speaks a standard language.
Competition Robots
Build and mentoring support for school and university robotics teams.
Operator Training
Hands-on programmes so your staff can run and maintain the machine.
Research Platforms
Rigs and test benches for universities and teams who need to run their own experiments.
Prototyping
Proving an idea in hardware before it becomes a budget line.
Built to be maintained
A robot that cannot be repaired locally is a robot that works once. We favour parts that can be sourced or printed in Lusaka, document what we build, and hand over the drawings and the code. Capability should stay in the country.
