Perceive
Through cameras, computer vision and sensors, it interprets the environment in real time.
SPANISH ASSOCIATION OF HUMANOID ROBOTICS AND PHYSICAL AI
The intelligencethat movesthe future
ÁNIMA drives the development and adoption of humanoid robotics and physical AI in Spain.
Join ÁNIMA↗AN ALLIANCE TO ACTIVATE THE FUTURE
Driven by two leading associations: AFM Cluster and AER Automation.
ÁNIMA is the result of a collaboration between AFM Cluster and AER Automation. A joint initiative connecting companies, technology and knowledge to accelerate the development of humanoid robotics and physical AI in Spain.
ÁNIMA is that which gives life, movement or the ability to act. Conceptually, it represents the intelligence that enables a machine to perceive its environment, understand it, decide and physically act upon it.
HUMANOIDS
The way to bring artificial intelligence into the physical world.
A humanoid robot combines perception, reasoning and movement in an architecture designed to operate in spaces created for people and coexist with them.
Understand
Integrates information, recognises situations and learns from experience.
Decide
It plans tasks and adapts its response to each context.
Act
It manipulates, moves and collaborates physically with people and machines.
How can they help?
