Manufacturing a hardware product is a complicated process – especially for a start-up building a ground-breaking customer service robot.

To bring its robot, Bo, to market, BotsAndUs needed an OS that could support the wide variety of hardware and software involved in the product; and the robotics company quickly discovered that Ubuntu offered the ideal combination of versatility and suitability for embedded projects. With Ubuntu, choosing and integrating hardware and software is easy, guaranteeing a smooth path to production for Bo.
