GENE.01
The GENE.01 by Generative Bionics is a cutting-edge bipedal humanoid robot designed for safe human collaboration, featuring distributed tactile skin with force and proximity sensors for intuitive physical interactions. Powered by AMD processors, it employs Physical AI derived from IIT's iCub, ergoCub, and iRonCub platforms, enabling learning from real environments and adaptation to industrial tasks. With human-like proportions and Italian design aesthetics, it supports bipedal locomotion on uneven terrain, dexterous manipulation via multi-fingered hands, and advanced balancing for dynamic stability. Key capabilities include natural voice interaction, wide-field vision, and modular end-effectors for manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and hazardous operations. Emphasizing safety through force-limiting and collision avoidance, GENE.01 amplifies human potential in shared workspaces, handling repetitive or high-risk duties with precision and reliability.
RoBee M
RoBee Series M is Oversonic Robotics' medical humanoid for hospitals, rehabilitation centers and elderly-care facilities. A 154–175 cm, up-to-80 kg cognitive robot with a compact 45 × 45 cm footprint, it navigates autonomously, monitors vital signs, supports rehabilitation and logistics, and integrates with electronic health records. It is CE-marked as a Medical Device Class I.
RoBee F
RoBee F is Oversonic Robotics’ intralogistics-focused humanoid robot, built around a bimanual manipulation system, an omnidirectional autonomous base, and a rear transport module for moving materials in warehouses and production lines. It is designed to combine human-like dexterity with mobile handling of pallets, containers, and industrial components, while operating safely around people. The platform emphasizes vertical access, multi-level workstations, and adaptive handling across dynamic environments. Official materials describe 7-axis articulated arms, onboard vision, cloud connectivity, a front display, and VoiceBot interaction features. The robot is positioned as a high-payload, collaborative mobile manipulation system for internal logistics and flexible manufacturing workflows.
RoBee R
RoBee Series R is Oversonic Robotics' flagship industrial humanoid: a cognitive AI robot on a differential-drive base with two arms (5 kg each, 10 kg bimanual) that moves autonomously, manipulates with ±1 mm deterministic accuracy and talks to operators through a multilingual voicebot. It stands 162–190 cm, runs up to 8 hours on two lithium-ion batteries with inductive auto-recharge, and integrates with ERP/MES systems through APIs.
iRonCub
iRonCub is a groundbreaking jet-powered flying humanoid robot developed by IIT's AMI lab, transforming the iCub3 platform into the world's first humanoid capable of controlled flight. Equipped with four micro-jet engines—two on the arms and two on a backpack jetpack—it generates over 1000 Newtons of thrust to achieve stable hover up to 50 cm, managing extreme heat over 800°C via a titanium spine and heat-resistant covers. Advanced AI control systems, including neural networks and UKF pose estimation, enable human-like balance amid turbulent airflows, shifting center of mass, and limb movements. Onboard sensors like IMU and depth cameras support real-time flight dynamics, multibody aerodynamics, and non-stationary maneuvers. Designed for research in aerial humanoid robotics, it pioneers applications in search-and-rescue, hazardous inspections, and disaster response, blending bipedal morphology with unprecedented aerial agility.
ErgoCub Humanoid Robot
ergoCub is a 1.5 m, 55.7 kg humanoid robot developed by the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) with INAIL, Italy's workers' compensation authority, as an evolution of the iCub robot. It was designed for physical collaboration with people: its geometry minimizes the joint effort of shared lifting tasks, so it can help reduce the musculoskeletal injuries that heavy lifting causes. It carries up to about 10 kg, walks at roughly human walking speed, works with the iFeel wearable sensors that track a worker's motion, and was presented on September 21, 2023 at IIT's 20th-anniversary celebrations in Genoa.
