About DISCOVER Robotics
AIRBOT Play is a lightweight robot arm weighing approximately 3.5 kilograms and operating from a compact 24-volt power supply without a separate control cabinet. It supports interchangeable end effectors and can be mounted on benches, mobile bases or dual-arm research setups.
DISCOVER supplies simulation models and development environments for Isaac Sim, Gazebo and MuJoCo alongside teleoperation and mobile-manipulation kits. The product line is structured around data collection, imitation learning, embodied-AI research and applied manipulation rather than one fixed industrial workcell.
