Schools, colleges and universities have large buildings, heavy daily footfall and tight budgets for cleaning and support services. SPARK Robotics helps UK education providers use cleaning, service and teaching robots where they make a real difference.
We review your buildings, timetables and goals, recommend suitable equipment and help your team put it to work.
The right application depends on the campus and how it is used. For some sites, that means cleaning corridors and halls outside teaching hours. For others, it means serving canteens, guiding visitors or giving students hands-on experience of robotics.
Autonomous cleaning robots can sweep, vacuum and scrub corridors, halls and classrooms after the school day or overnight, so buildings are ready each morning.
Delivery robots can carry food and clear trays in canteens and cafés, helping catering teams manage busy lunch periods.
Robots with screens can welcome visitors, share notices and give directions at open days, receptions and events.
Quadruped and humanoid robots give students and researchers a platform for programming, AI and engineering projects, from classroom demonstrations to advanced research.
Clean corridors and halls outside teaching hours.
Cover large buildings, libraries and shared spaces.
Use robots as platforms for teaching and research.
Support catering, receptions and open days.
At Eldon Square, a busy Newcastle shopping centre, SPARK introduced an autonomous L50 scrubber-dryer alongside the existing cleaning team. It has completed more than 1,000 hours of autonomous cleaning.
We also work with education providers across cleaning, catering and teaching applications. Explore the customer stories relevant to your campus and the task you want to improve.
We discuss the repeated journeys or cleaning work you want to improve.
We review routes, surfaces, access, foot traffic, charging and staff handovers.
We agree what the demonstration or trial should show and how success will be assessed.
We configure the agreed solution, train your team and set out the support arrangements in your proposal.
The result is a recommendation based on your operation, rather than a robot selected from a catalogue.
Yes. Robots sense people and obstacles and slow down or stop around them. Most campuses schedule the main cleaning runs outside teaching hours.
Quadruped robots such as the D1 Pro/Edu and humanoid robots such as the X2 are designed with development tools for programming and research projects. We can help you choose the right platform for your courses.
Delivery robots can carry food and clear trays in canteens and cafés, which helps catering teams during busy lunch periods.
No. Robots take on repetitive floor cleaning so your team can focus on washrooms, classrooms and detail work.
Yes. Many campuses start with one building or task, review the results, then extend to other areas.
Tell us about your site and the task you want to improve. We’ll help you identify the most useful next step.
