About navel robotics GmbH
navel robotics develops a social robot with a lively presence, its own character, proactive behavior, and social competence based on deep learning modules. The goal is to realize artificial beings like those we have only known and come to love from 3D animation films. Because we are convinced that such social robots will change our private lives in the future just as profoundly as the internet and smartphone once did. navel robotics was founded in the context of the research project “VIVA”. Working together with universities and other companies, we operate in a highly interdisciplinary team of natural and social scientists as well as hardware, software, and electronics engineers. Additionally, users and designers are involved. In this 3-year project, we are developing the fundamental concept through to demonstrators of the social robot VIVA.
