NEXUS-1 is a general-purpose humanoid built for full commercial deployment — 20-hour shifts, 25 kg payload, and the dexterity to handle whatever your operation demands.
Engineered for environments that can't wait for a breakthrough. NEXUS-1 deploys into existing workflows on day one.
Two hot-swappable 2.4 kWh cells power a full shift. Swap a cell in 90 seconds — no downtime, no charging pause, no lost production.
Tendon-actuated fingers with embedded tactile sensors deliver near-human grip control. NEXUS-1 handles eggs, fasteners, circuit boards, and produce — without reprogramming.
A Vision-Language-Action model runs fully onboard at 200 Hz. No cloud latency, no connectivity dependency — NEXUS-1 reasons and responds in real time.
At 173 cm and 62 kg, NEXUS-1 fits any human-scale workspace. Walk it in, connect it to your fleet dashboard, and it's productive within hours — not months.
Tasks learned by one unit propagate to your entire fleet via encrypted OTA within 24 hours. Your robots collectively get smarter every single day.
ISO 10218 and ISO/TS 15066 certified for collaborative environments. Torque-limited joints, proximity sensing, and redundant E-stop systems ship standard on every unit.
Loading components, torqueing fasteners, and in-line QC — at over 1,000 placements per shift with sub-5 mm tolerance. Validated in automotive and electronics environments.
Tote handling, shelf restocking, and multi-SKU order picking across any standard warehouse — no floor modifications, no conveyor retrofits, no new infrastructure.
Medication delivery, specimen transport, equipment restocking, and linen handling. NEXUS-1 reclaims clinical hours — letting nurses and techs focus entirely on patient care.
Chemical handling, high-heat operations, radiation-controlled areas, and confined-space inspection. NEXUS-1 operates in conditions where human entry is prohibited or life-threatening.
