Angsa Robotics :: Autonomous Litter Collection Robots for Public Green & Grey Spaces

Angsa Robotics is a German robotics startup (Angsa Robotics GmbH) specializing in autonomous litter collection robots for public green and grey spaces. Founded to address urban cleanliness challenges and labor shortages, the company develops AI-powered, environmentally friendly robots that autonomously detect and remove litter from grass, gravel, parks, event venues, and other outdoor areas where traditional sweepers cannot operate effectively. Angsa’s solution combines robust hardware with artificial intelligence to provide a scalable, data-driven approach to public space maintenance, helping cities, municipalities, event organizers, and property managers maintain cleaner environments with reduced manual effort.

The company’s flagship product is its autonomous trash-picking robot. It uses advanced computer vision and AI to distinguish between litter and natural objects (such as leaves or stones), ensuring it only collects actual waste. This prevents damage to grass, soil, or surrounding nature while maximizing cleaning efficiency. The robot operates autonomously within user-defined areas (set via the Angsa App using Google Maps or GIS data) and requires no additional infrastructure for deployment.

Core Features:

• AI-Based Trash Detection: Real-time object recognition for accurate litter identification.
• Autonomous Navigation: Safe and efficient movement across varied outdoor terrains.
• Angsa App: A web-based, intuitive dashboard for defining cleaning zones, monitoring live status (progress, battery, position), and accessing data insights on collected trash types and quantities (GDPR-compliant).
• Environmental Focus: Zero-emission electric operation and minimal ground impact, supporting sustainable urban maintenance.

Angsa Robotics positions its solution as a reliable partner for public cleanliness, especially in high-traffic or hard-to-reach areas like parks, festival grounds, and roadside verges. The robot helps reduce manual labor costs, improve cleaning frequency, and generate valuable data for better waste management decisions. The company is actively expanding its customer base among cities and event organizers across Europe.
