Hikrobot, the mobile robot and machine vision division of Chinese automation major Hikvision, has introduced the Hikpad AMR and three additional machine vision products at Automation Expo 2026. The Hikpad is positioned as a new autonomous mobile robot platform from Hikrobot's lineup, joining the company's existing warehouse and logistics automation offerings. The three machine vision innovations expand Hikrobot's vision portfolio used for inspection, identification, and robotic guidance applications. As one of China's largest AMR exporters with established distribution in South Asia, Hikrobot's continued product expansion signals growing competition for international buyers evaluating Chinese warehouse automation suppliers.
Takeaway for buyers: Hikrobot is actively broadening its AMR and vision catalog — worth requesting current specs and pricing for cross-comparison.
