SINGAPORE, AUGUST 12, 2024 – SIMPPLE Ltd. (NASDAQ: SPPL, “SIMPPLE”, “the Company”) and Aspectus Security today announced its first deployment of Gemini, a proprietary multi-functional robot equipped with security surveillance, digital concierge, and cleaning capabilities, at Woodleigh Mall. This marks a significant milestone for both companies leveraging cutting-edge technologies to transform their security operations within a commercial facility as well as to proliferate robotic and automation within the security industry.
The name "Gemini" was bestowed upon by SIMPPLE to reflect the unique functionalities of the robot, drawing inspiration from the astrological sign known for its twin representation. Just as Gemini symbolizes versatility and adaptability, this iteration of SIMPPLE’s multi-functional robot embodies these traits by seamlessly switching between security and cleaning roles.
Gemini forms part of the SIMPPLE PLUS offerings under the SIMPPLE Ecosystem solution that integrates seamlessly with SIMPPLE's core software platform. Equipped with a compute resource housed within the patent-pending modular robot head, it can conduct security patrols through video analytics on-the-go, engage with lost or distressed members of public who might need to speak to a security personnel, and perform routine cleaning tasks. This innovative design allows the robot to complement Aspectus’s workforce, thereby responding to incidents quicker.
“Partnering with one of Singapore’s forward-looking security agencies unlocks incredible opportunities as we continue to expand our portfolio offerings to realise our end-to-end facility management technology capabilities,” said CEO of SIMPPLE Norman Schroeder. “The deployment of Gemini at Woodleigh Mall by Aspectus Security is a testament to our innovation journey to rethink and reimagine operations with robotics and artificial intelligence. We are excited to see Gemini in more and more buildings in Singapore.”
“We will continue to deliver integrated security solutions through innovation and upskill our security workforce,” said Managing Director of Aspectus Security Jimmy Lim, who also shared his enthusiasm. “We are thrilled to be the first security company in Singapore to deploy Gemini at Woodleigh Mall. This advanced technology will not only enhance our operational efficiency but also provide a higher level of security for the mall's occupants and visitors. We look forward to partnering with progressive technology providers like SIMPPLE to further enhance our services.”
Gemini is part of the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) Advanced Digital Solutions (ADS) scheme, aimed at supporting Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) like Aspectus Security to pilot the adoption of integrated digital solutions like Gemini aligned with the Facility Management Industry Digital Plan as early adopters.
