Description
The Sanctuary AI Phoenix humanoid robot stands 170 cm tall, weighs 70 kg, and is designed for real-world environments. Featuring 20-DOF robotic hands with haptic feedback, 25 kg payload capacity, and the advanced Carbon AI control system, the Sanctuary AI Phoenix humanoid robot can autonomously understand language, perform complex tasks, and adapt to multiple industries.
One of Phoenix’s most notable features is its advanced robotic hands. With 20 degrees of freedom, these hands rival human dexterity, enabling fine manipulation and precise object handling. The hands are equipped with proprietary haptic technology that mimics the human sense of touch, further enhancing the robot’s ability to interact with its environment.
Phoenix is powered by Carbon, Sanctuary AI’s pioneering AI control system. This cognitive architecture integrates modern AI technologies to translate natural language into real-world actions. Carbon enables Phoenix to think and act like a person, complete tasks autonomously, and engage in goal-seeking behaviors. The system combines symbolic and logical reasoning with large language models, deep learning, and reinforcement learning to create a versatile and adaptable intelligence.
The robot’s AI is designed with explainable and auditable reasoning, task, and motion plans, ensuring transparency and safety in its operations. Phoenix can be supervised and teleoperated by humans when necessary, allowing for flexible deployment in various work environments.
Sanctuary AI has demonstrated Phoenix’s capabilities across hundreds of tasks identified by customers from more than a dozen different industries. This versatility positions Phoenix as a potential solution to labor shortages in sectors ranging from manufacturing and logistics to healthcare and retail.
As the world’s first humanoid general-purpose robot powered by such an advanced AI system, Phoenix represents a significant step towards Sanctuary AI’s vision of creating ubiquitous general-purpose robots. The company sees a future where these robots work alongside humans, performing tasks that need to be done in cases where there simply aren’t enough people available.
With its combination of physical capabilities, advanced AI, and focus on real-world applications, Phoenix stands at the forefront of the humanoid robotics revolution, potentially reshaping the future of work across multiple industries.
