Westwood Robotics Unveils THEMIS V2: AI Robot that Runs like Human
Westwood Robotics has unveiled “THEMIS V2” a full-size humanoid robot designed for dynamic movements and safe human interaction.
THEMIS reflects Westwood Robotics’ goal of bringing versatile, human-like robots into real-world use.
Key Features
- THEMIS V2 is about 5 feet 3 inches tall and it can bend and twist almost like a person.
- THEMIS V2 can run ten kilometer per hour, balance on rough terrain and react one thousand times per second.It is also capable of performing dynamic movements like parkour, demonstrating agility and balance.
- Its arms, capable of moving in 6 different ways, while its hands can move in 7 ways.
- The robot is powered by Westwood Robotics’ BEAR (Back-drivable Electromechanical Actuator for Robotics) series, providing precise control and power for a wide range of motions.
- Themis V2 is equipped with advanced sensors and control systems, THEMIS is designed to interact safely with its environment and human counterparts.
- The inclusion of MicroStrain’s 3DM-CV7-AHRS inertial sensor enhances THEMIS’s balance and stability, providing accurate data on orientation and acceleration.
Background
Before THEMIS V2, Westwood Robotics developed the original THEMIS, a full-size humanoid robot showcasing advanced mobility and safe interaction.
THEMIS V2 builds on this foundation with improved agility, BEAR actuators, and enhanced sensors for more refined, human-like performance in real-world tasks.
News Gist
Westwood Robotics has launched THEMIS V2, a 5’3” humanoid robot with parkour agility, 10 km/h speed, advanced sensors, and BEAR actuators.
Designed for real-world tasks, it mirrors human movement and safely interacts with people and complex environments.
