WHAT IS THE ANA AVATAR XPRIZE?
A $10 million global competition to accelerate the development of a robotic avatar system to create a more connected world
THE CHALLENGE
Our ability to physically experience another geographic location, or to provide on-the-ground assistance where needed, is limited by cost, distance, and time. The ANA Avatar XPRIZE can enable the creation of an audacious alternative that could bypass these limitations, allowing us to more rapidly and effectively distribute skills and hands-on expertise to distant geographic locations where they are needed, transcending the barriers of distance and time.

OUR ROBOY AVATAR SETUP
Transporting all your senses to a different place requires quite some technology. Tricking your eyes into seeing somewhere else, your ears into hearing somewhere else, feeling a remote touch, a faint distant smell or when a gust of wind makes you stumble – it requires quite some technology. We develop a robot – Roboy Avatar – to capture those sensory impressions, and an create an operator suit, that applies those senses to the robot.
The suit is a combination of VR-focused products that transport you into the virtual world and the Roboy Exoforce system that applies external forces the operator’s body.
Roboy Avatar hears, sees, feels touch and is the perfect remote you!
