About Pollen Robotics
Pollen Robotics builds open hardware and software for human-robot interaction, manipulation and embodied-AI development. Reachy 2 provides a larger mobile manipulation platform, while Reachy Mini packages cameras, microphones, audio and expressive motion into Lite and Wireless desktop versions with Python and JavaScript tooling.
Pollen states that more than 10,000 Reachy Mini units have shipped worldwide and currently fulfils orders in production batches with lead times up to 90 days. In August 2026 it introduced Microduck, a 25-centimetre open-source biped with 15 motors for reinforcement-learning experiments. Pollen operates as a Hugging Face company, linking its robots with community apps and model infrastructure while retaining separate product-specific maturity and task scope.
