What is Mi-Mo, the Customizable General-Purpose AI Robot?
Mi-Mo is a general-purpose AI robot that thinks and acts autonomously based on visual, audio, and motion inputs.
 
 
 
 

Features

 

Sophisticated Design

The design resembles stylish interior furniture that you would want to display indoors. Wood is used for the top board and legs, giving it a warmth that makes you want to touch it.
 
 

Software Extensibility

Mi-Mo operates through the collaboration of multiple AI models that enable image recognition, voice recognition, and motion control functions. Customers can develop applications tailored to use cases and AI model configurations themselves, or have additional development provided according to their needs.
 

Hardware Extensibility

The top board can be easily removed, making it simple to place your own products on it or expand its functionality. The basic frame's CAD data can also be provided, allowing customers to make their own extensions. Options such as color changes and logo engraving can be provided at delivery upon request.
 

Rich Interaction

With lifelike diverse movements implemented, it can interact naturally with people.
 

Available Model: "Mi-Mo v0”

Size:80cm (h) × 45cm (w) × 45cm (d)
Weight:Approximately 8kg
Joints:18 in legs, 4 in neck
Display:4-inch circular touchscreen with 720 × 720 pixel resolution
Camera:One camera with 4608 × 2592 pixel resolution (additional cameras can be added)

Examples of Movement

 
 
 
Also, by incorporating the V-Sido* robot control software, it is possible to implement more biological motion generation and remote operation using bilateral technology. (*Regarding the V-Sido license, please inquire at the time of installation. Reference URL: https://www.asratec.co.jp/products/v-sido-os/)
 

Usage Scenarios

Expected usage scenarios include the entertainment, retail, food service, medical care, and nursing industries that require mobility and conversation functions, as well as events and educational settings where advanced human interaction is needed.
We are advancing proof-of-concept experiments in various settings and looking for partner companies to join us in testing and development.

Advisor

 

Wataru Yoshizaki (Robotics Advisor)

Developer of the robot control system "V-Sido". Involved in controlling numerous robots, including the life-sized moving Gundam. Chief Robot Creator at Asratec Corporation. Advisor at the University of Tokyo Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology, Department of Information Physics and Computing, etc.
Advisor Comment(Wataru Yoshizaki: V-Sido Developer)
In this era where AI and robots are becoming familiar, it is important to seriously consider the form of "robots we want to have nearby." While robots that walk powerfully with strong motors are good, robots that move softly on thin legs are also good. Mi-Mo is a robot that will demonstrate its true value through AI integration thanks to its warm design, high expandability, and redundancy with multiple leg mechanisms. I will continue to support it.
 
CEO Comment (Yuki Ishikawa: CEO of Jizai Inc.)
The current model "Mi-Mo v0" aims to create a robot that "thinks autonomously and acts autonomously" using current AI technology to its fullest extent. We designed it to blend into people's lives. There is still room for improvement in the AI and application aspects, and we are looking for partners who can conduct verification experiments and development together to make it a robot that is useful to people, so please contact us if you are interested.
