About AI2 Robotics
AlphaBot 2 uses more than 34 body degrees of freedom, a lifting waist-and-leg structure and a working range extending from floor level to approximately 2.4 metres. Its 360-degree perception and dual-arm manipulation support material handling, loading, assembly and equipment interaction.
Alpha Brain runs the company’s GOVLA model, linking full-space perception, language understanding, reasoning and whole-body action. AI2 applies the system across automotive, electronics, semiconductors, biotechnology and public-service operations, supported by an industrial data and training platform.
