Dalil is a small autonomous robot built for retail aisles. Tell it what you're after — it plans the route, drives you there, and points at the exact shelf.
Retail context
Big stores are built to be gotten lost in. Shoppers wander, ask two or three staff the same question, and staff lose whole shifts to pointing. Dalil scans the floor once and remembers every shelf — for good.
From the moment a shelf is scanned to the moment a shopper finds their product, every piece is designed to be invisible — and reliable.
One QR code per shelf. After that, Dalil always knows what's stocked where.
No app. No login. A shopper taps the screen and says what they're after.
Dalil reads floor markers, plans the shortest path, and stops safely for people.
An on-screen arrow shows exactly where to look. Then Dalil returns to base.
Ask once, get walked there. No more asking three different people the same question.
Every "where's the..." a robot answers is one less pulling staff away from their work.
A visible, low-effort way to feel current. The kind of tech shoppers actually notice.
Dalil is a student-built project, and we're building it step by step. Navigation, scanning, and the on-screen interface — each tested on its own before they connect.
We'll share progress as the pieces come together.
We're a small student team building Dalil from the ground up. Whether you run a store, work in retail tech, or just want to know how it works — we'd like to hear from you.
