Apple-native robotics

Robotics built for the Apple ecosystem.

Meet R.O.B.—an open-source humanoid platform designed to move, perceive, and connect through macOS, spatial computing, and live multimodal AI.

Meet R.O.B. Discuss a project

Built in public: 2019–today
Articulated arms: 7-axis
Mobile platform: Dual-track

R.O.B., Orbitus Robotics' tracked humanoid robot — R.O.B. Field prototype

Perception

Camera and spatial sensing turn the world around R.O.B. into actionable context.

Motion

Tracked mobility and articulated arms bring intelligent decisions into physical space.

Personality

Live multimodal AI gives R.O.B. a voice, awareness, and a more natural presence.
