AutoNavi (高德) delivered its first Gaode Tutu (高德途途) robot dogs to Sands China (金沙中国) for resort visitor guidance.

AutoNavi (高德), part of Alibaba Group (阿里巴巴集团), formally delivered the first batch of Gaode Tutu (高德途途) embodied robot dogs to Sands China (金沙中国). The handover took place at a ceremony at NBA House at The Venetian Macao (澳门威尼斯人), with the robots designated for visitor guidance at Sands China resorts.

The cooperation also includes resort-wide indoor navigation using spatial information about floors, passageways, shops, and public facilities. This navigation work is part of the broader cooperation plan, distinct from the physical robot deliveries.

AutoNavi will also use spatial-intelligence technology to construct three-dimensional models of selected resort areas, allowing users to adjust viewing angles and preview those spaces in its app. The source does not disclose the number of robots delivered, contract value, onboard compute hardware, or measured visitor-service performance.
