1. Pty Ltd
Solutions Focused Engineering
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
Research Teams
Develop 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 Clientele
Have 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 Business
Automated 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
