Security Robots
Deploy autonomous patrol and surveillance robots to extend site coverage and improve incident detection.
Security robots patrol perimeters, monitor access points, and provide live video and sensor data around the clock. They complement human guards by covering repetitive routes and hazardous areas while flagging anomalies for rapid response.
Common use cases
Key benefits
Extend patrol coverage without extra guards
Operate continuously in all weather conditions
Capture consistent, time-stamped evidence
Reduce response times to detected incidents
Frequently asked questions
Can a robot really replace a security guard?
It replaces the routine miles, not the judgment. One robot in a North American warehouse park covered roughly three guards' patrol workload, cutting labour costs 66% — while humans handle response.
Do patrol robots work outdoors, on stairs and rough ground?
Quadruped platforms do — Certis chose one precisely because stairs and uneven terrain created patrol gaps. 24/7 all-weather coverage is the typical result.
How fast is incident detection?
Certis saw 30% faster incident response after deployment, with live alerts streamed from the robot to the control room.
What evidence do the robots capture?
Time-stamped video, thermal imagery and sensor logs — consistent, evidence-grade records from every patrol, automatically.
What does a security robot cost versus guarding spend?
$40,000–$120,000 per system (per our inspection & security data). Compare that against fully-loaded 24/7 guarding costs for the same coverage — payback typically lands in 12–24 months.

AGIBOT D1 MaxPro IP67
The AGIBOT D1 MaxPro IP67 is a heavy-duty industrial quadruped designed for sustained payload transport, material handling, emergency-response support and custom remote or autonomous operations. It carries a rated 50 kg payload while weighing 68 kg, uses a 2,081 Wh battery, and delivers 5.5 ± 0.5 hours unloaded or at least 2 hours under a 50 kg load, with a published operational range of 21 ± 1 km unloaded and 11 ± 1 km at full load. The platform climbs continuous stairs up to 30 cm, including open-riser industrial stairs, supports self-righting after a fall, and is rated for 45-degree slopes. IP67 protection, operation from -20°C to 55°C and published operation in water up to 20 cm deep support harsh-site deployment. A 117 TOPS GPU compute module, front 96-channel LiDAR, front and rear wide-angle cameras, automotive-grade IMU, TCP/ROS SDK and extensive power/data interfaces provide an industrial base for integrator-developed payloads and autonomy.

AGIBOT D1 Pro
The AGIBOT D1 Pro is a compact, remotely operated quadruped designed for agile demonstrations, light-item carriage, education and remotely supervised inspection or security experiments. It weighs 15.5 kg, carries a 5 kg effective payload, reaches 3.5 m/s and operates for approximately 1-2 hours, with reinforcement-learning-based gait control, 16 cm continuous stair climbing and a 35 cm vertical jump. The supplied joystick controller and real-time image transmission support straightforward teleoperation, while the 48 N·m joints, self-balancing and anti-fall behaviours support dynamic movement across varied ground surfaces. Unlike the D1 Edu, the Pro version does not support an SDK or functional expansion ports, so buyers should treat it as an out-of-the-box remote platform rather than a secondary-development robot.

AGIBOT D1 Ultra IP54
The AGIBOT D1 Ultra IP54 is a compact industrial quadruped designed for security, inspection, emergency-response support, research and custom payload applications. It weighs 15.5 kg, carries a rated 5 kg payload, reaches 3.7 m/s and provides 1-2 hours of runtime with a published range of 6 ± 1 km. Reinforcement-learning gait control supports self-balancing, anti-tipping and disturbance rejection, with continuous stair climbing up to 16 cm, jumps up to 35 cm, and slopes rated at 30° in standard conditions or 40° in extreme conditions. IP54 protection, sealed and anti-corrosion core components, and operation from 0°C to 40°C support deployment around dust, splashes, damp, mud and sand. A 12-DoF platform, 8-core CPU, 1080p wide-field camera, IMU, M4 payload mounting, Gigabit Ethernet, USB, power, SBUS and UART interfaces, and an open high-/low-level SDK provide a strong base for integrator-developed sensing, teleoperation and autonomy. Intelligent following, mapping, patrol and autonomous navigation require secondary development and optional sensors.

AGIBOT D1 Ultra-W IP54
The AGIBOT D1 Ultra-W IP54 is a compact wheeled-legged quadruped platform for inspection, security, emergency-response support, research and custom payload development. AGIBOT's official Ultra-W development guide specifies a 22 kg body, 16 total degrees of freedom (four per leg), a 5 kg rated payload, 3.7 m/s maximum speed, 1-2 hours of runtime and 9 km range. Its hybrid mobility envelope includes continuous stair climbing up to 16 cm, a 35 cm jump, maximum climbing height of 60 cm, and 30° standard or 40° extreme-condition slope capability. The 43.2 V, 4.6 Ah battery charges in about one hour. IP54 protection and a 0°C to 40°C operating range support mixed indoor and sheltered outdoor work. A 1080p wide-field camera, standard IMU, Wi-Fi 5.0, Bluetooth 5.0, Gigabit Ethernet, USB, power, SBUS and UART interfaces, real-time video and an official high-level SDK support teleoperation and secondary development. Packaged autonomous navigation, obstacle avoidance, fleet management and autonomous charging are not published as standard functions.

DEEP Robotics DR02
DEEP Robotics DR02 is a commercial industrial-grade bipedal humanoid designed for demanding indoor and outdoor work rather than only controlled laboratory demonstrations. The standard DR02 stands 1.75 m tall, weighs 65 kg with battery, has 21 active DoF, carries up to 10 kg with both arms, uses a 1,440 Wh swappable battery and is protected to IP66 across a -20°C to 55°C operating range. It walks at up to 1.5 m/s for normal operation, with a 4 m/s laboratory extreme test figure, and is rated for 25 cm continuous stairs and 20° slopes. The platform supports motion development, OTA updates, autonomous navigation and intelligent obstacle avoidance, while exact runtime, single-arm payload, end-effector package and regional certifications should still be confirmed for each deployment.

Certis Industrial Park
DEEP Jueying X30
Challenge: Certis needed reliable 24/7 monitoring across a complex industrial park with patrol gaps caused by stairs and uneven terrain.
Solution: A DEEP Jueying X30 quadruped patrolled autonomously, detecting people, vehicles and unusual objects and streaming live alerts.
Result: 30% faster incident response with wider, more consistent patrol coverage and fewer terrain-related blind spots.
Large Warehouse Park
DEEP Jueying X30 + Lynx M20
Challenge: High overnight security costs, long complex patrol routes and blind spots in narrow aisles across a large warehouse park.
Solution: X30 and Lynx M20 quadrupeds patrolled autonomously using LiDAR, vision, thermal imaging and gas sensors to detect hazards.
Result: One robot performed the patrol workload of around three security employees, cutting labour costs by 66% with 95% hazard-detection accuracy.
