Roborigger

About

Roborigger provides a wireless crane load-control system and internet-connected lift-tracking software that records time, weight, location and uses pattern recognition to detect people under lifted loads.

Mission

Roborigger builds a wireless crane load‑controlling system and internet‑connected tracking software that records time, weight, and location for every lift. The system is designed to keep personnel away from underneath lifted loads, reducing or eliminating time spent in the danger zone. Early prototypes were developed in 2016 and have been trialled by construction giant Multiplex and oil and gas producer Woodside Petroleum since 2018. The company has won multiple categories in the WA Innovator of the Year program and has signed NDAs with two of the top four wind turbine OEMs to explore handling next‑generation blades. Roborigger is working closely with Curtin University to add pattern and event recognition to its IoT capability, including detecting human bodies under loads. The company says recent funding will allow it to accelerate development for overseas markets.
