Overview

Robotics arm of Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Japan's industrial-robot pioneer. Besides industrial robots and the dual-arm duAro cobot, it develops the FORRO hospital delivery robot, the NYOKKEY semi-humanoid and the Kaleido humanoid (since 2015). Kaleido 9 adds fall-resistant legs, LiDAR-based autonomous walking and HMD teleoperation.

Strengths

  • Over 50 years of industrial-robot experience
  • Dual-arm cobot fits into human workstations
  • Development spans hospitals to disaster response

Kaleido 9 teleoperated disaster-rescue demonstration

Kaleido 9 demonstrated disaster-rescue scenarios via real-time HMD teleoperation; Kawasaki plans a stepwise path through teleoperation and human-AI hybrid operation rather than jumping to full autonomy.
