Influencing the future of human-robot teaming
How intelligent robotics will change our lives
We believe systems will only get more complex, and more autonomous. The skills and ecosystem need to be integrated to be able to deliver at scale. To this end, we will work to build out a collaborative ecosystem of stakeholders to ensure that autonomous systems are integrated successfully and transparently, and that everyone feels part of the process. By doing so, we hope to create a future where robots are embraced by all, and where we can all benefit from the advances in technology that they bring.
Our inception
We are on a mission to accelerate the development and introduction of smarter robots into everyday life.
Asimovo is a spin-out of Almende, a research center focused on the power of self-organizing teams and collaboration in driving innovation and progress.
The idea for Asimovo emerged while developing a number of Robots, as part of Horizon funded European collaboration projects. The team saw there was an opportunity in the market for better robotic. development tools. We had an idea to combine the everyday robotics tools with cloud services to provide a platform for developing new development tools for building complex robotics behaviours.
Asimovo was formed in 2023 and we are delighted that the idea we had over 2 years ago is now being turned into a real solution for the Robotics industry.
Driving principles
The main driving principles at inception are what still drives us today:
Ideation
Empower creativity and innovation through the Asimovo platform, do not constrain it
Simulation
Use Simulation together with cloud computing to power an iterative development process
Collaboration
A robotics platform where many can access and develop as part of different teams and projects
Realisation
Empower robots to move – with best practices in training and developing autonomous systems
“In a properly automated and educated world, then, machines may prove to be the true humanising influence. It may be that machines will do the work that makes life possible, and the human beings will do all the other things that make life pleasant and worthwhile.”
Issac Asimov
Taking the foundation of Robotics coined by Isaac Asimov in the 1950s as our inspiration, and updating those ideas using the latest technology in Simulation and Cloud computing. We have created Asimovo as a destination for creating a new collaborative future.
