REEMAN YIMA: Door-to-Door Parcel Delivery for Residential Communities

A Connected Route from the Parcel Station to the Apartment Door

The REEMAN YIMA YBOT20P Outdoor Delivery Robot connects a residential parcel station with residents’ apartment doors, carrying parcels along mapped community routes and through connected buildings. With compatible elevator and powered-door integration, it can travel to the destination floor for collection outside the apartment. Its 100 kg payload, dual-Laser SLAM navigation and ability to cross low thresholds up to 3 cm make it a practical choice for communities with dry, paved outdoor routes in rain-free conditions and suitable indoor access.

Why bring parcels to the apartment door instead of the collection point?

For residents, a parcel arriving in the community is not always a parcel arriving home. The collection station may be several buildings away. Picking up a heavy delivery can mean a walk across the grounds, a trip through an entrance and another elevator ride.

For delivery teams, the same journey repeats throughout the day. Staff move between the parcel station, building entrances and residential floors, spending time on transportation that could otherwise go toward sorting, loading and resolving delivery exceptions.

YIMA addresses this final stretch. The robot carries the load along a configured route, while staff handle parcel preparation and residents collect their deliveries at the designated apartment-door handover point. For property managers, the opportunity is a more convenient residential service built around the community’s existing delivery operation.

How does YIMA move a parcel from the station to a resident’s door?

A residential delivery route connects outdoor mobility with indoor building access:

Parcel station → dry, paved community road → powered building entrance → elevator → floor corridor → apartment-door handover → assigned return or next task.

At the station, staff load parcels into the project’s selected delivery container and assign the destination. YIMA follows a mapped route using dual-Laser SLAM navigation, passing through integrated building access points and continuing to the configured stop outside the apartment.

The resident collects the parcel from the container. After the project’s handover process is completed, the robot follows its assigned next task or return route. The project specifies arrival notifications, recipient verification, secure compartments and collection confirmation through the selected parcel-management system and delivery-container configuration.

This division of work keeps the service straightforward: people prepare and receive parcels; YIMA handles the repeated transportation between them.

Can YIMA take an elevator to deliver to upper floors?

Yes. YIMA supports cross-floor delivery through compatible elevator-control integration. That connection extends the delivery route beyond the lobby and toward the resident’s actual destination.

Once the building interface is configured and tested, the intended sequence is to request the elevator, wait at the designated boarding point, enter when boarding conditions are confirmed, travel to the assigned floor and exit onto the corresponding mapped corridor. YIMA then continues toward the apartment handover location.

Property managers and elevator providers should establish the permitted operating workflow together. Controller compatibility, access authorization, cabin space, door timing and passenger interaction determine how the service works in that building. Validating these details turns elevator access into a usable part of the delivery route, rather than an unresolved break between ground-floor arrival and apartment-door service.

Can YIMA control sliding doors and swing doors?

Yes, through integration with compatible powered sliding-door or swing-door controllers. As YIMA approaches an authorized entrance, the integrated system requests door opening; the robot proceeds once the passage is ready.

The door’s powered mechanism performs the opening and closing through the integrated control connection. For a manually operated entrance, the project includes suitable powered-door equipment and controls to create an automated passage.

For residential operators, the important benefit is continuity. A compatible powered entrance allows the robot to move from the community road into the building without making the entrance a routine manual handoff point. The project should define access permissions and test the complete passage, including safe clearance and closing behavior.

Can YIMA cross thresholds, small steps and residential ramps?

YIMA supports obstacle crossing up to 3 cm and a maximum gradeability of 10%. These capabilities help connect paved outdoor paths with low entrance thresholds and minor changes in floor level.

Use YIMA’s 3 cm crossing capability for suitable low entrance thresholds and minor surface transitions. For larger changes in level, design the route around accessible ramps or integrated elevators. A 10% grade means 10 cm of rise over 100 cm of horizontal distance.

Route validation should consider the loaded robot, the shape of each transition and surface traction. Where those conditions fit, YIMA’s mobility allows the delivery route to include everyday ground-level changes rather than requiring a perfectly flat journey from station to door.

How does YIMA navigate shared community spaces?

YIMA combines dual-Laser SLAM navigation with autonomous obstacle avoidance. Its top-mounted Laser provides 360° scanning, while the front-facing Laser covers 230°, supporting navigation through mapped routes where pedestrians, carts and other obstacles may appear.

The adjustable travel-speed range is 0.3–1 m/s. Residential configuration should prioritize pedestrians and use suitable speed settings around entrances, elevator lobbies and corridors. When a route is blocked, the operating plan should support safe waiting or an available alternative path, with staff assistance for exceptions that cannot be resolved automatically.

Outdoor routes should be dry, paved and rain-free. Planning around those conditions gives operators a clear service boundary and a practical basis for deciding when to dispatch the robot.

Plan parcel capacity using the complete carried load, container volume and package dimensions. Use the 750 mm figure for initial passage assessment, then size turns and elevator access around the complete loaded configuration. Runtime depends on load, route and operating conditions. The Laser range figures describe maximum sensor detection ranges; operating clearances and safety settings are established for the actual route.

How should property managers and delivery operators introduce YIMA?

YIMA is a strong fit for communities where the repetitive task is moving parcels between a centralized station and multiple residential destinations. Start with a defined service route, then connect the building interfaces and handover process around it.

Use this focused checklist to define the first application:

• Route fit: Select a station-to-building route with dry, paved outdoor surfaces in rain-free conditions. Record entrance thresholds, ramps, narrow points and the complete loaded clearance.
• Building access: Identify the elevator and powered-door controllers, permitted floors and property-management approvals. Include boarding, door passage and recovery in the integration scope.
• Parcel handover: Choose the delivery container, staff loading process and resident collection method. Specify notifications, recipient verification and the procedure for an unavailable resident.
• Shared-space operation: Define pedestrian priority, suitable travel settings, waiting locations and who responds to an interrupted delivery.
• Daily service: Compare parcel demand and delivery windows with route time, elevator waiting and charging arrangements. Assign an accessible charging location.

A proposed pilot should cover the full station-to-door journey with representative parcels. Agree on measures such as completed handovers, end-to-end trip time, elevator waiting, manual interventions and charging behavior. These observations provide a practical basis for deciding how to expand the service.
