Move like humans. Stand like humans.

Train humanoid robots to move with Xsens motion capture and balance them with Xsens industrial IMUs. One partner, one motion intelligence stack. 

 

 

Talk to an expert

Xsens is the only partner that both teaches humanoid robots how to move like humans and equips them with the inertial “inner ear” to stay balanced in the real world.
