Technology

At ALPS.Robotics, technology is at the heart of every development. Our systems – whether ground, air, or hybrid platforms – are the result of a clear principle: modularity, openness, and precision. The close combination of mechanical design, digital integration, and practical manufacturing results in unmanned systems that can be adapted to virtually any application – efficient, safe, and future-proof.

Every ALPS.Robotics platform is based on a uniform modular system that standardizes mechanical, electrical and digital interfaces.

• Interchangeable chassis, power, and payload modules
• Standardized interfaces according to industrial standards
• Rapid adaptation to new tasks or test environments
• Scalability from compact R&D units to heavy-duty systems

This modular basis reduces development times, lowers costs and enables the reuse of components across different platforms.

Our digital twins enable a complete virtual representation of any platform—from structural design to motion dynamics. Combined with tools like Unity and realvirtual.io, customers and developers can:

• Simulate driving and flight behavior
• Virtually test sensor and communication modules
• Prepare integration and training scenarios
• Validate prototypes without physical risks

This creates a continuous connection between design, testing and real-life use.

ALPS-Systems are ROS2-capable and follow the API-first principle: every function – from teleoperation to mission planning – is digitally accessible and extensible.

• Support for teleoperation, assisted, and semi-autonomous control
• Integration of external systems via API or SDK
• Open data interfaces for research, analysis, and AI applications
• Preparation for future levels of autonomy through modular software architecture

Even in civilian applications, safety comes first. Therefore, every system follows a consistent safety-by-design approach:

• Integrated E-Stop concepts and remote safety control
• Documented risk assessments and verification
• CE-compliant development according to applicable standards
• Training and instruction materials for safe operation

Our systems are manufactured in the NEXOS.Factory in Deggendorf – a state-of-the-art production environment that combines additive manufacturing, modular assembly, and digital traceability.

• Manufacturing based on the NEXOS.Cube concept
• Additive manufacturing of structural and housing parts
• End-of-line test benches with digital quality documentation
• Sustainable material selection and recycling concepts

ALPS.Robotics works with a strong network of partners from research, industry, and software development. This close collaboration guarantees practice-oriented innovations and allows for the direct implementation of new technologies into market-ready products.

Think modularly. Develop digitally. Implement reliably.
