Persona MK1
Status: In Development
Persona MK1 is our first-generation avatar-operator system, a full-size physical humanoid robot controlled in real-time by a human operator wearing a compact on-body interface. The robotic avatar is your second body, from which you can see, hear, speak, touch, interact, and move around from its perspective, projecting your conscious presence.
Benefits
Keep your human body safe at your home or office. Let your avatar bear all the risks at the application environment.
Teleport your abilities anywhere in seconds. Prepare avatars at long-distance locations or across a single large site for significant travel-time savings.
Teach your avatar to perform physical tasks independently. Leverage behavioral abstraction and dynamic chaining for stable performance through complex routines.
Features
Power on controller. Insert key drive. Wear suit. Press button to connect and synchronize. Ready.
Wide operating temperature. Continuous duty cycle. High MTBF. Redundant design.
Designed for longevity and versatility with minimal hassle. Freedom to customize, learn, and maintain without vendor lock-in.
