Kinetic is Verkko Robotics physical AI: giving the Voltaic model a body. The digital brain is live today, powering Nexus and Halo. The robot is the research stage that follows it: a body that learns new skills by demonstration and never unlearns how to walk.
Status: embodied intelligence is in research. The spiking model is live on a GPU today. Embodiment is the next stage on our roadmap, with deployment on Verkko's own proprietary hardware after it. We are looking for design partners.
A conventional robot does what its programmers wrote, and nothing else. Kinetic runs Voltaic, so a robot keeps learning after it leaves the factory, and learns the way a body learns: from doing.
Show the robot a task once. Hands, voice and vision feed one brain, so it can learn from how you do it.
HULL keeps a stability hull around the skills a robot has mastered. It picks up a new skill without losing how to walk.
It adapts to new objects, surfaces and conditions in the real world, without a retraining run in a lab.
The spiking core runs on the robot itself, so it keeps working without a network and uses very little power.
Grippers and arms that adapt to new objects and conditions as they work, without retraining in a lab.
Robots that walk, grasp and adjust in the real world, where no two days are identical.
Robots that keep learning in the field, where connectivity and power are limited and retraining is not an option.
Verkko Robotics is where the lab meets the physical world. The same spiking core that powers Nexus and Halo runs inside the robots it is building, and on the horizon is Verkko's own proprietary hardware, built to compute the way neurons do, so the body can run on very little power.
