About Apptronik

"Apptronik is a cutting-edge robotics company specializing in humanoid robots designed for logistics and manufacturing applications. Founded in early 2016 as a spinout from the Human Centered Robotics Lab at the University of Texas at Austin, Apptronik aims to revolutionize the robotics industry by creating versatile robots that enhance human productivity and safety. Their flagship humanoid robot, Apollo, is a 5 feet 8 inches tall, 160-pound robot built for mass production and safe collaboration with humans. With a focus on addressing labor shortages in logistics, Apollo is equipped with electric power and a four-hour battery life, making it ideal for warehouse operations. Apptronik envisions Apollo's capabilities expanding beyond logistics to various industries, positioning it as the "iPhone of robots" with the potential for software updates to enable diverse tasks. With plans for full commercial production by 2024, Apptronik is set to transform the future of robotics in fields like construction and elder care."
