How it works
We work with researchers at institutions around the world using robotics to further the development of areas like machine learning, artificial intelligence, tactile sensing and human-robotic interaction.
After an exploratory call to determine whether our tech is the right fit for your project, we’ll discuss the work in depth and identify how we can best support you.
We’ll schedule quarterly meetings to understand your progress, how you’re using our technology and what further help we can provide.
At the end of the project, we’d be delighted to help promote your publications and results to our global audience.
In return, we ask for:
Regular feedback on our technology and how it's performed during your project
Referrals to other research institutions or teams who could benefit from our tech
A testimonial explaining the role of our systems in your research
