About Apollo
Apptronik's Apollo combines NASA-heritage engineering with practical commercial design, resulting in a versatile humanoid robot optimized for heavy-duty industrial applications. Standing 5'8" and capable of lifting 55 pounds continuously for up to four hours on a single battery pack, Apollo offers superior payload capacity compared to most competitors. The robot's modular design allows for customization across different applications, from bipedal walking configurations to wheeled platforms or stationary installations. Apollo's development draws on Apptronik's decade of experience building advanced robotics systems for NASA and the Department of Defense, bringing proven reliability to commercial markets. With recent partnerships including Mercedes-Benz for factory testing and Jabil for manufacturing scale-up, Apollo is positioned to enter commercial deployment by late 2024, targeting applications in warehousing, manufacturing, and potentially eldercare where its strength and reliability make it ideally suited for physically demanding tasks.
