About Ascento

Ascento builds and operates all-terrain wheel-legged robots for outdoor security and industrial inspection. Its Guard service combines thermal and RGB cameras, autonomous charging, encrypted communications, remote control and scheduled patrols for people detection, perimeter checks, lighting, doors and thermal anomalies.

The robot is delivered as a robotics-as-a-service package with site configuration, monitoring and technical support. It works in rain, snow and uneven outdoor areas, and can run for more than eight hours between charges, giving industrial facilities a persistent mobile layer for patrol and asset observation.
