Overview

Devanthro's Robody is a musculoskeletal humanoid robot avatar designed for remote elder care, using tendon-actuated limbs and VR-based teleoperation with haptic feedback so operators can perform two-handed household tasks including meal preparation, medication management, and object retrieval from any location. The robot features a flexible soft skin for safe interaction in residential environments, and operators see through Robody's cameras and hear through its microphones via a VR headset. Founded in Munich in 2018 as a spin-off of the Roboy project at TU Munich, Devanthro has tested Robody in real homes including navigation of narrow hallways, carpets, and cluttered environments.
