| PROVEN IN INDUSTRY

Physical AI meets proven industrial robotics

With the HORST600 G2, you can develop and test Physical AI on a full-fledged 6-axis industrial robot that is already in use in numerous production facilities worldwide. With a reach of 610 mm, a maximum payload of up to 7 kg and repeatability of ± 0.05 mm, it provides a compact and precise platform for real-world applications.
The drivetrain is designed for continuous industrial operation and backed by a six-year warranty. This means your Physical AI application is not built on a pure lab platform, but from day one on hardware designed for real production environments.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the Physical AI Development Kit

The Physical AI Development Kit is a preconfigured development platform for Physical AI on real industrial hardware. It combines the HORST600 G2 industrial robot with software, interfaces, SDKs, sample projects and gripping and camera technology. This allows you to develop your own Physical AI applications and test them directly on a real robot.

An SDK, or Software Development Kit, bundles interfaces, examples, and development tools for building your own applications. The Physical AI Development Kit makes it easier to connect tools, frameworks and AI models to the robot, thereby shortening the path from development to real-world application.

 

The Physical AI Development Kit supports use cases including Vision-to-Robot, Language-to-Action, Teleoperation, Sim-to-Real, Data Collection and custom robotics skills. Prepared examples help you get started quickly and can be extended for your own applications.

 

Yes. The Development Kit is designed for an open development ecosystem. ROS 2, NVIDIA Isaac, MoveIt 2 and other frameworks can be integrated. SDKs and interfaces also allow users to connect your own AI models, agents, and existing development environments to the robot system.

 

Yes. With Sim-to-Real, you can develop and test applications virtually before transferring them to the HORST600 G2. This allows you to move step by step from simulation to real industrial hardware.
The Development Kit is designed for companies, innovation and development teams, universities and research institutions that want to test Physical AI in practical applications, develop their own applications and build expertise on industrial robotics.
