20 years of innovation and collaborative success
Since 2007, Roboplanet has been supporting industrial players who want to evolve their professions.
Height work, tasks in confined or underwater spaces, create risks, organizational complexity, costs, and significant physical strain. A successful innovative project involves changing a process, engaging participants from the study phase, and ensuring frequent operational iterations. To achieve this, Roboplanet has developed a culture of creative collaboration, organizational agility, and productivity.
Since its foundation, several dozen projects have been successfully delivered, from prototype validation to certified industrial products. These successes have helped avoid thousands of hours of high-risk work, improved the availability of factories and ships, and made hazardous professions safer and more attractive.
ROBOPLANET offers off-the-shelf flagship products such as ALTISCAN, UT_POLE, and UT_ROVER, designed for the safety of Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) service providers.
These devices provide high-performance solutions to optimize inspections while enhancing HSE safety and reducing costs. Each project benefits from continuous improvement based on real-world feedback from its industrial partners.
Since R&D is not an end in itself, ROBOPLANET is committed to designing custom robotic solutions that turn technical challenges into opportunities, all while ensuring high standards of performance and safety.

Frequently Asked Question (FAQ)
What is our approach to R&D?
Our R&D approach is based on close collaboration with industry leaders to design robotic solutions tailored to their specific needs. Each project is grounded in field analysis and real-world feedback to ensure relevant and effective results.
Do you develop custom prototypes?
Yes, our R&D team specializes in custom design and prototyping. We work closely with our partners to develop robots that address specific challenges, such as inspections in complex or hazardous environments.
Do you offer research and development partnerships?
Absolutely. We collaborate with our clients to co-develop innovative solutions. These partnerships include phases of analysis, prototyping, testing, and validation to ensure a perfect fit with their specific needs.
What types of technologies do we develop?
Our R&D projects include technologies such as magnetic robots for non-destructive testing (NDT), advanced ultrasonic sensors, and mobility systems specifically designed for harsh environments—whether marine, industrial, or confined spaces.
Can our solutions be adapted to your specific constraints?
Yes, our robots are modular and customizable. For example, we can integrate specific features such as phased-array probes or onboard cameras, depending on your needs.
Do you have examples of successful R&D projects?
Yes, we have collaborated with key players such as TOTAL and the INSTITUT DE SOUDURE to develop and validate equipment like the ALTISCAN and the UT_Rover. These projects have significantly improved the safety and performance of inspections, demonstrating the effectiveness of our R&D approach in real industrial environments.
How long does an R&D project with your teams take?
The duration depends on the complexity of the project, but our agile processes enable us to deliver functional prototypes within optimal timeframes.
How can you integrate our innovations into your operations?
Once the project is completed, we support you in implementing the solution on your sites, providing dedicated training for your teams to ensure a smooth and efficient transition.
