Addverb, an industrial robotics and warehouse automation player, has announced its entry into the humanoid robotics field, with the launch scheduled for 2025. This landmark move represents a new chapter in Addverb’s evolution, which began with developing fixed automation systems and mobile robots. Previously, Addverb introduced “Trakr,” an AI-powered robot with autonomous navigation, modular payload, and the ability to traverse various terrains for maintenance and security applications.
Addverb onboarded Reliance as a strategic investor in 2021 and subsequently deployed its advanced robotic solutions across multiple use cases in Reliance’s diverse businesses, including grocery, fashion, petrochemicals, and healthcare. Addverb will work closely with Reliance to develop the humanoid, leveraging the synergy of the Jio AI Platform and 5G services, and deploy it extensively across the group’s businesses for various use cases. The new humanoid robot will be an advanced AI agent capable of processing vast volumes of multi-modal data from vision, audio, and touch inputs.
Leveraging dynamic, self-learning algorithms, it will navigate complex environments, perform intricate tasks, make real-time decisions, and adapt to diverse workflows across industries—including warehouses, defence, and healthcare. The robot will execute complex tasks requiring bipedal mobility across multiple terrains. It will also integrate Visual and Language Action (VLA) technology, enabling full auto.
