Our own factory is the R&D site. We publish the experiments we run on real dual-arm robots — the ones that worked and the ones that did not.日本語
HOW WE RESEARCH

How we do research

01

Bet on one industry

We are not building a robot that can do anything. The axis is not breadth of capability, but whether a linen factory can run it and make money.

02

Measure everything in yen per hour

A 90% success rate is not a goal by itself. Every research goal reduces to the profit one robot generates in one hour.

03

Evaluate results honestly

Controlled comparisons, and metrics designed before training. When we find a confound, we discount our own numbers ourselves.

Folding Towels, Measured in Yen per Hour

We put advantage-conditioned learning (RECAP) on a real dual-arm robot and cut towel-folding cycle time by 4 seconds (over 5%); success rate barely moved. Every result is measured in profit per robot-hour.

Come fold towels with us

The people who run these experiments also design the metrics and stand next to the robot in production. We are hiring ML engineers.
