ExRobotics ExR-2

Our Verdict: Purpose-built for permanent deployment in hazardous facilities, offering continuous monitoring that periodic inspections miss.

The ExRobotics ExR-2 is an ATEX Zone 1 certified wheeled inspection robot designed for continuous autonomous monitoring of oil, gas, and chemical processing facilities. Unlike one-off inspection visits, the ExR-2 remains on-site permanently, performing scheduled patrols and on-demand inspections around the clock.

Its sensor suite includes visual cameras, thermal imaging, acoustic listening devices, and gas detection sensors. The ExR-2 autonomously navigates outdoor industrial environments including gravel paths, ramps, and through weather conditions, reporting anomalies to the control room in real time via its 4G/5G connectivity.
