Its advanced whole-body motion control system delivers coordinated, human-like actions. Equipped with an in-house designed IMU, depth cameras, and supporting sensor integration, it enables accurate perception. Oli’s open SDK and modular architecture allow compatibility with multiple end-effectors, streamlining development and deployment. Oli is built to serve Innovators, Developers, and System Integrators (IDS), accelerating embodied AI in R&D and real-world deployment.

NVIDIA – NVIDIA Jetson Thor 

NVIDIA’s Jetson Thor is a next-generation AI supercomputer for robots, delivering over 2,000 TFLOPS of compute in a compact, energy-efficient module. It’s built to handle the enormous processing demands of humanoid robots by fusing data from vision, touch, and motion sensors; running large AI models for perception, planning, and reasoning; and ensuring real-time, low-latency responses for safe movement and interaction. By integrating with NVIDIA’s Isaac robotics platform, Jetson Thor gives humanoid developers the compute headroom and software ecosystem needed to scale robots. 

Perceptyne – PR-34D 

Perceptyne’s PR-34D is a semi-humanoid robot built for the Physical Intelligence era. Featuring 7-DoF arms with dexterous end-effectors, it integrates fine torque sensing on all joints, high-density tactile sensors, and multiple vision systems — all seamlessly fused for real-time, low-latency control. With its intuitive teleoperation interface, the PR-34D captures rich multimodal data across vision, touch, and force, enabling the creation of reliable Physical AI agents for next-generation automation.

Stereolabs – ZED Stereo Cameras

For over a decade, Stereolabs has advanced vision-based perception with its ZED camera portfolio, companion compute platforms, and ZED SDK. Together, they form a complete perception stack that produces high-fidelity depth data and supports localization, mapping, and detection of people and objects. By combining robust hardware with AI-powered software, Stereolabs delivers a scalable, field-ready system that already supports the transition of humanoid platforms from prototypes to operational deployment.

Tesollo – DG-5F 

The DG-5F is a robotic hand capable of human-level grasping and manipulation. Designed to match the size of an adult male hand, it features five fingers and twenty independently actuated joints. With a direct-drive mechanism, it delivers precise motion and stable performance, providing high controllability for a wide range of applications. In addition, the DG-5F fully supports simulation tools such as Isaac Sim and MuJoCo, making it an optimized solution for humanoid robotics research and development (R&D). 

Wandercraft – Calvin-40 

Wandercraft’s Calvin-40 is built at human scale and voice-operated to tackle physically demanding and hazardous tasks in factory settings. Developed in just 40 days, it’s built on the strength of Wandercraft’s exoskeleton experience. Calvin-40 uses force sensors in its feet, day/night cameras, and multilayer visual/auditory safety systems to maintain balance, perceive its environment, and interact safely with humans. Its “headless” form factor places sensors low for better visibility of tools and surfaces, and the robot is controlled with medical-grade software for reliability and operator safety.  

Xsens – Motion Capture 

Xsens captures detailed human motion data through humanoid shadowing, enabling robots to learn and replicate lifelike movements. By collecting highly accurate, real-time data on human movement, Xsens allows humanoid robots to emulate human actions and refine these abilities through AI learning algorithms. The technology supports advanced motion imitation, precise limb articulation, and adaptive control, which are essential for humanoids to handle high-stakes tasks. in healthcare, manufacturing, and personal assistance.
