A deployment is recorded when a public source names both the customer and the robot, or the maker confirms it. Nothing here counts against Ishiguro Lab, ATR, and Kokoro.
In Research, Saildrone, HEBI Robotics and NASA have deployment evidence on file.
Add a deployment →Hiroshi Ishiguro Laboratories develops Geminoid androids, including the Geminoid HI series, as tele-operated humanoid robots for research on human-robot interaction and human appearance.
