Our mission
At Humanoid we strive to create the world's leading, commercially scalable, safe, and advanced humanoid robots that seamlessly integrate into daily life and amplify human capacity.
Vision
In a world where artificial intelligence opens up new horizons, our faith in its potential unveils a new outlook where, together, humans and machines build a new future filled with knowledge, inspiration, and incredible discoveries.
The development of a functional humanoid robot underpins an era of abundance and well-being where poverty will disappear, and people will be able to choose what they want to do. We believe that providing a universal basic income will eventually be a true evolution of our civilization.
Solution
As the demands on our built environment rise, labour shortages loom. With the world’s workforce increasingly moving away from undesirable tasks, the manufacturing, construction, and logistics industries critical to our daily lives are left exposed.
By deploying our general-purpose humanoid robots in environments deemed hazardous or monotonous, we envision a future where human well-being is safeguarded while closing the gaps in critical global labour needs.
Responsibilities
- Mechanical Design: Design and develop mechanical components and systems for humanoid robots, including body structures, joints, limbs, grippers, and end-effectors, using CAD software.
- Kinematics and Dynamics: Apply principles of kinematics and dynamics to design robotic mechanisms and linkages that enable smooth and precise motion and manipulation.
- Material Selection: Select appropriate materials and manufacturing processes for robot components, considering factors such as strength, weight, stiffness, and cost.
- Mechanism Optimization: Optimize mechanical designs for performance, efficiency, and reliability, balancing competing requirements such as payload capacity, speed, and power consumption.
- Prototyping: Build physical prototypes and mock-ups to validate mechanical designs, assess feasibility, and test functionality, using rapid prototyping techniques and fabrication tools.
- Assembly and Integration: Assemble and integrate mechanical components into complete robotic systems, collaborating closely with electrical engineers, software developers, and other team members.
- Safety and Compliance: Ensure that mechanical designs comply with safety standards and regulations, conducting risk assessments and implementing safety features as needed.
- Testing and Validation: Conduct mechanical testing and validation to verify performance, durability, and reliability of robotic systems, analyzing test results and iterating on designs as necessary.
- Documentation: Prepare detailed design documentation, including technical drawings, specifications, assembly instructions, and bill of materials (BOM), to support manufacturing and assembly processes.
- Collaboration: Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including electronics engineers, software developers, industrial designers, and project managers, to achieve project goals and objectives.
Expertise
- Mechanical Engineering: Strong background in mechanical engineering principles, including statics, dynamics, mechanics of materials, and machine design.
