Canonical robot record
Overview
BellaBot is Pudu Robotics' flagship cat-inspired delivery robot, designed primarily for restaurants and retail environments where it carries food and goods to customers. It builds on an earlier generation of delivery robots while adding enhanced human-robot interaction, including a bionic cat-like face with animated expressions, light effects, and touch-responsive haptic feedback that lets it engage playfully with diners and guests.
Functionally, the robot relies on a dual SLAM navigation stack that fuses LiDAR and visual positioning, combined with multi-sensor three-dimensional obstacle avoidance, to move safely through busy, dynamic spaces. An automotive-grade suspension system helps keep dishes and items stable as it travels between the kitchen and tables.
BellaBot can be summoned through mobile apps or physical buttons and is presented by Pudu as a currently available commercial product, deployed in hospitality and retail settings by a range of global brands.

Record changelog
- Sensors: 3D cameras, depth cameras, RGBD cameras changed to LiDAR + 3x RGBD depth cameras (dual LiDAR/visual SLAM) · Jul 8, 2026
tranche-5 verification (corrected): Official pages state 3 RGBD cameras plus LiDAR with dual (laser + visual) SLAM positioning and marker positioning. Record's list was triply redundant (3D/depth/RGBD
- Payload Capacity: 10 kg changed to 40 kg total (10 kg per tray x 4 trays) · Jul 8, 2026
tranche-5 verification (corrected): Official: 'Max 40 kg', '10 kg/tray'. Record's bare '10 kg' understates total capacity and lacked the per-tray qualifier.
- Battery Life: 12 hours changed to up to 13 hours (no load) · Jul 8, 2026
tranche-5 verification (corrected): Current official page states 'Battery Life: 13h (None load)'; older Pudu materials cited 12-24 h. Supports quick battery swap. Qualifier (no load) required.
