AI Robot

[INQ. NO. 2601E07] Daedong Robotics, an AI robotics company within the Daedong Group, recently announced that its divot repair AI robot for golf courses, DivotFix, jointly developed with HL Group, won a CES 2026 Innovation Award.
DivotFix is an intelligent autonomous robot that detects damaged areas of grass (divots) that occur during play on a golf course using vision AI and LiDAR, and then uses a quantitative spraying system to inject and repair divot sand.
With the development of DivotFix, Daedong Robotics is expanding its robotics portfolio, which primarily focuses on agriculture, into outdoor service robots for leisure, sports, and public infrastructure.

“Our DivotFix’s winning of a CES 2026 Innovation Award is the result of Daedong Group’s technological prowess being recognized once again on the global stage, following our AI-based cultivator’s winning of an Innovation Award in 2025. We will continue to develop intelligent robots specialized for various outdoor tasks such as our DivotFix — with an aim to expand our presence in global markets,” explained the company’s CEO.
After commercialization of the robot, Daedong Robotics expects to create synergies by combining the golf-course sales network of its parent company DaedongMobility with HL D&I Halla’s experience in golf-course maintenance.
Daedong Robotics was established as a subsidiary of the Daedong Group, dedicated to pioneering AI-enhanced robotic solutions. Since its founding in 1947, the Daedong Group has led the way in smart agriculture, gaining global recognition under the KIOTI brand.
DaedongRobotics aims to integrate AI robotics with Daedong’s advanced agricultural technologies, such as autonomous tractors and precision farming, while leveraging Daedong’s extensive global marketing expertise to become a leading AI robotics company on the global stage.
Daedong Robotics strives to improve people’s quality of life, foster a more efficient and sustainable ecosystem, and ultimately lead the way into a future where robotics seamlessly integrates into human society. In this way, it aims to create a smarter, more sustainable future for agriculture through AI and robotics.
