About Sanctuary AI
Founded in 2018, Sanctuary builds humanoid robots and a novel control system for
them that integrates symbolic logic and reasoning with data-driven robot
foundation models. We use our robots to collect vision, audio, touch, and
proprioception data from the perspective of the robot while they perform
real-world work tasks. We use that data to train multimodal robot foundation
models. Because our systems are vertically integrated, we can design, deploy,
and refine at scale. Our mission is to create the world's first human-like
intelligence in general-purpose robots.
