Our planned lab

A real-world test environment in Cologne.

Before a robot meets a resident, it should have met the room, the walker and the cup a thousand times.

Design principle

Real rooms, not showrooms.

A digital twin and a physical training lab, side by side. Point at a circle to see what each room is for.

How we get there

The lab starts in simulation and a small rented space. A full Cologne prototype lab is Phase 4 of the roadmap — it will only be built once manufacturer and Pflege partners are in place.
