NAVER to Deploy No-Code Robot Design Tool at Headquarters This Year
NAVER will deploy its ARC brain Flow no-code robot design tool at its 1784 headquarters in South Korea this year. The platform allows non-specialists to program robot tasks and routes using word cards, eliminating the need for coding. This technology will initially be used for coffee delivery by the Rookie 2 autonomous robot, with plans to expand to lunch and document deliveries. NAVER LABS Europe has filed patent applications for ARC brain Flow in Korea and the United States. The company intends to roll out the system to smart buildings in Saudi Arabia and Japan after its initial deployment in Korea.
NAVER's deployment of ARC brain Flow at its 1784 headquarters marks a significant step toward democratizing robot service design. By enabling non-specialists to program robot tasks with word cards, the company addresses a key barrier to wider adoption: the need for specialized coding skills. This move could accelerate the integration of robotics into various industries beyond manufacturing, including food and beverage, logistics, and office support, by making robot management accessible to building managers without in-house developers. The initial application to coffee delivery by the Rookie 2 robot at 1784 will serve as a crucial field test for usability and stability. The subsequent rollout to smart buildings in Saudi Arabia and Japan highlights NAVER's ambition to establish ARC brain Flow as a core component of the global robot service ecosystem. The long-term vision to incorporate AI agents for natural language commands and error detection suggests a future where robot interaction is even more intuitive, potentially setting a new standard for human-robot collaboration in commercial environments.
