A Halodi Robotics' perception engineer with a humanoid collaborative robot used for security guarding in human environments (e.g., offices). A perception engineer uses the latest cutting-edge developments in computer vision and machine learning to allow the robot to understand its environment for navigation, manipulation, human-robot interaction, and other useful tasks. The Halodi Robotics platform allows robotics researchers to be focused on developing new algorithms and solutions without having to build a platform first. The close-to-direct drive transmission technology in the robot allows for easy interactions with the real world using Direct Force Control. The robot has been designed from the ground up to facilitate the lowest simulation gap possible to ease machine learning development, testing and deployment. A Unity™ simulation environment enables next-generation robotic simulation, taking advantage of tools previously not available to roboticists.
