Punggol Digital District, Singapore’s largest smart robotics test bed, will see new robots from eight firms like Grab and security services provider Certis, to test new cleaning, patrolling and food delivery robots.
Trials are expected to start by the end of 2026 to test artificial intelligence safety measures and shape regulations for mass adoption.
Minister for Digital Development and Information Josephine Teo said: “Robots can help our workers enhance service delivery to areas that are currently underserved.”
The initial eight firms working with government agencies and the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) on this test bed are Grab, DHL, Certis, home-grown start-up QuikBot, software firms FieldAI and Thoughtworks, along with robot-makers Slamtec and Unitree.
