About Sanctuary AI: Founded in 2018, Sanctuary builds humanoid robots and a novel control system for them that integrates symbolic logic and reasoning with datadriven robot foundation models. We use our robots to collect vision, audio, touch, and proprioception data from the perspective of the robot while they perform realworld work tasks. We use that data to train multimodal robot foundation models. Because our systems are vertically integrated, we can design, deploy, and refine at scale. Our mission is to create the worlds first humanlike intelligence in generalpurpose robots. #J-18808-Ljbffr
