The infrastructure for robot dexterity

Teaching robots
to use their hands.

Galexia builds the data and algorithms robots need to learn fine motor skills: high-fidelity simulation, grounded in real-world data.

The problem

Robots can walk and see. But they still can’t do hand tasks that are simple for us. Even chopping vegetables is hard for a robot. Fine motor control is the missing piece for robots to work in the real world.

Why it’s hard

The bottleneck is
data and algorithms.

Real data

Slow and expensive to collect

Recording robots doing hand tasks takes people, hardware and time, for every task and every hand.

Simulation

Hard to make real enough

Environments with the right physics for grip, contact, breaking and liquids are complex to build.

Algorithms

Hungry for data

Today’s learning methods need a lot of data to learn even one skill.

What we build

An engine for
robot dexterity.

Galexia gives teams both: the data, simulated and real, and the algorithms to train robots on hard hand tasks.

  1. 01

    Pick a task

    Crack an egg, slice a tomato, insert a cable.

  2. 02

    Simulate it

    High-fidelity physics for contact, breaking and liquids.

  3. 03

    Ground it

    Real-world data tunes the materials and checks the results.

  4. 04

    Train it

    Data-efficient algorithms, for any robot hand.

Where we start

The hard cases
first.

Robots practise these thousands of times in simulation before they touch real hardware.

Fragile

Objects that need a gentle grip

Breakable

Things that crack and come apart

Liquids

Fluids that pour and spill

Robots that need
hands?

We’re working with our first robotics teams. If your robots need to handle the hard stuff, let’s talk.
