Project Description
Your AI Social Robot
ARI is our latest social humanoid robot where you can easily integrate your AI algorithms. Thanks to its combination of Intel i9 and Nvidia® Xavier or Nvidia® Orin GPU, it will allow you to finally have enough processing power available for your developments and dive into the limitless applications of AI. Let’s shape the future together!
Building meaningful connections, made easy
ARI is a high-performance robotic platform designed for a wide range of multimodal expressive gestures and behaviors, making it the ideal social robot, that is suitable for Human-Robot-Interaction, perception, cognition, navigation, and interaction. Its behavior can be customized using the provided, easy to use, web interface. You can also dive deeper and integrate it thanks to its extensive ROS API to easily develop, simulate and deploy application on the robot.

Frequently Asked Questions
Expressive, helpful and entertaining, ARI helps you design the social interactions you are aiming for. Our collaborative robot has been created as a safe, interactive and autonomous social robot that can help you with customer-facing activities.
As a receptionist, guide, entertainer or presenter; it connects with your customers. Find out more by reaching out to our team here.
Our social robot is very easy to deploy. It has an intuitive user interface that helps you easily adapt the collaborative robot to your needs. If you want to know more about how to use the robot to your environment, we are happy to hear more about your needs and help you along the way. You can reach out to our team via the contact form and we will get back to you within at most one business day.
ARI is easily integrated with external systems. The social robot has WiFi capabilities and could connect to your facility network infrastructure and internet based cloud services. It has a powerful and extensive API that integrators and end-users can take advantage of in order to connect the collaborative robot with thousands of different services.
ARI adapts to most environments, so you won’t need to make any modifications in the majority of the cases. The social humanoid robot uses advanced technology based on multiple sensors that allows the robot to safely interact and navigate without requiring any modification such as guiding tracks or other complex installation that other platforms might need.
ARI is able to speak in more than 30 languages and this is just the start for our social robotics. If you have a need for a specific language, please let us know and we can confirm you if our social robot is able to speak that language.
An intuitive and user friendly web-based interface allows you to easily alter ARI’s touchscreen content, speech, and even create your own gestures. This way, we ensure that the applications and behaviour of our social robot can be easily controlled from any device such as desktop, smartphone or tablet.
ARI’s motions, speeches and touchscreen contents are easy to adapt by using the provided SDK to match the needs of your application.
ARI’s eyes are also customizable for enabling better interactions.
Multiple themes are available for the touchscreen and the brightness is adaptable to different light conditions. In case you need a customization for a larger volume of units such as a special color, please let us know and we will be happy to find a way to help you with the desired customization for your collaborative robot.
The easiest way is to get in touch with our team through our contact form and we will get back to you shortly.
