Technology & Products
Key Products
IGRIS-C (second-gen bipedal humanoid robot, 154cm/56kg, payload 6kg); IGRIS (first-gen humanoid prototype); F&B robot solutions
Technological Advantage
Proprietary imitation learning AI technology; whole body control (WBC); vision-language-action (VLA) models; proprioceptive compliance torque control; in-house hardware design from hands to full body
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Physical AI humanoid robots using imitation learning — AI learns from human demonstration and robots autonomously replicate tasks, unlike rule-based robots limited to pre-programmed motions
How They Differentiate
Imitation learning-based AI (not rule-based); full vertical integration from hardware design to AI control; proprioceptive compliance torque control enabling safe human-robot interaction without external sensors; compact design (154cm/56kg) optimized for service environments
