Um den weltweit menschenähnlichsten Roboter der Welt zu finden, müssen wir gar nicht so weit reisen – der heißt nämlich Roboy und wird in Garching bei München entwickelt. Aber was genau macht ihn so besonders?
(In German only) German Business Life-Style Magazine with a Motto that Roboy fully subscribes to: “Work Hard. Play Hard.” has interviewed Roboy Founder & Proud Dad on the Vision behind the Project. Gin-Tonic included.
Coffee with ARM Developers. We discussed many different topics, such as: why build humanoids, what telepresence is, and the interesting concept of embodiment in the context of robotics. We then talked about Roboy itself, from the open-source tech stack to the vision behind it. All topped by a telepresence live demo.
From 19. to 21.11. Roboy 3.0 became a sales man! In the newly opened The Latest concept store, where new products that are not available anywhere else are being showcased and sold, Roboy was selling its very own version of the german classic advent calendar and of course our Roboy & Lucy books!
At 1E9 THE_CONFERENCE 2020, global thought leaders gathered to share their visions for A NEW HUMANITY. And of course Roboy needed to be there – because what if not a new humanity is our vision!
rETHinking Obstacles: Telepresence and Bridges to the Future A panel of unique perspectives – an anthropologist, a roboticist, and a scientist who will showcase how embodied telepresence robotics is already building exciting, unexpected, and unanticipated bridges. Brought together by Roboy, bridging space and time and teleporting Lora Koycheva from Munich to Zurich
3.0’s big moment! The unveiling! Among a selection of business leaders, Roboy 3.0 and the Teleportal were shown to the world for the first time! It was a magical event in Munich’s most beautiful and greenest event location: the Botanicum.
(Finanz und Wirtschaft, in German) Auch wenn Roboter im Alltag noch dünn gesät sind: Seit kurzem halten neuartige Roboter Einzug, mit teils erstaunlichen Resultaten und Konsequenzen.
Born the day its big unveiling at MWC got cancelled – we finished it anyways. Read more on the ETH Ambassadors Blog how we handled that unique moment.
