Over 30 Years of Expertise

We set out to build a robot that could go where people go.

The commonly referenced dull, dirty, and dangerous tasks of robotics dont always occur on a neatly organized factory floor. They pop up in the natural world and human-built environments. Our designs are ultimately motivated by functionalityto move and balance dynamically in unstructured, unknown, or antagonistic terrain.

 

Today, we combine an established legacy, roots in R&D, and an entrepreneurial mindset to create the foundation for our commercial organization.

Robots working in the real world

Spot, our quadruped robot, is unlocking digital transformation for hundreds of customers. Stretch, a versatile case handling robot, is automating back-breaking warehouse tasks. And Atlas, the world's most dynamic humanoid robot, is taking the first steps toward a commercial mobile manipulation robot.
