Apollo 2’s modular design gives teams the flexibility to choose the right mobility for the task. A bipedal configuration enables movement through spaces built for people, while a wheeled base offers stability and efficiency for high-throughput environments. Together, they make Apollo a versatile platform for real-world work.
Apollo is designed to be a powerful physical platform for the next generation of AI. Its humanoid form, dexterous manipulation, and real-world mobility make it well suited for robotics foundation models that can perceive, reason, and act.
Our work with Google DeepMind and Gemini Robotics highlights what becomes possible when frontier AI is paired with purpose-built robotics hardware: machines that are more general, more interactive, and better equipped to operate in the world around us.
human-robot interaction
Apollo 2 is designed to communicate clearly with the people around it. An expressive LED mouth, coordinated lighting, speech, and listening capabilities help make interactions feel more natural, while a built-in chest display provides at-a-glance information like robot status, battery level, charging state, and task progress.
Every detail is designed with people in mind. By making Apollo’s intent, activity, and state easier to understand, Apptronik creates a more transparent and approachable experience, helping people feel informed, confident, and comfortable working alongside robots.
ACutation
Actuation is at the heart of humanoid performance. Apollo 2 uses Apptronik’s patented actuator technology to deliver powerful, efficient, and precise motion across the body, helping the robot move, lift, and manipulate with confidence.
Developed through years of robotics engineering, Apptronik’s actuator platform is designed for 90%+ energy efficiency, simple maintainability, mass manufacturability, and supply chain resiliency. By reducing dependence on single-source suppliers and improving scalability, Apollo is built not just to perform but to be produced and deployed at scale.
Battery
Apollo 2 is designed for real-world workflows where uptime matters. Swappable batteries help enable 7x22 operation, allowing teams to quickly replace power packs and keep the robot moving with minimal interruption.
Flexible charging options, including opportunity charging and tethering, make it easier to adapt Apollo to different tasks, facilities, and deployment needs. With accessible charging built into the design, Apollo can stay powered, productive, and ready for the work ahead.
Apollo Humanoid Platform
Apollo 2 is the physical foundation of the platform: a next-generation humanoid robot designed for real-world mobility, manipulation, and interaction. Its human-centered form factor allows it to operate in spaces designed for people, while its advanced actuation, dexterous object handling, perception systems, and modular mobility options make it adaptable across a wide range of tasks and environments.
Artemis coordinates perception, planning, controls, safety systems, task execution, and human-robot interaction so the robot can understand what is happening, decide how to respond, and act reliably in the real world. This enables Apollo to translate high-level goals into precise whole-body coordination, to create a high performance and safe experience for the people working around it.
Fleet Connect is the operational layer that helps teams manage robots at scale. It provides tools to monitor robot status, orchestrate tasks, manage deployments, collect data, and optimize operations across a fleet of humanoids. By connecting robots, operators, and deployment data in one system, Fleet Connect helps organizations understand what their robots are doing, keep them productive, and continuously improve outcomes in the field.
Safety
Apollo 2 is designed with safety at every layer - from the way it moves through physical space to the way it reasons about the world around it. Hardware-level safety zones help the robot respond predictably to nearby people and objects, while advanced AI reasoning can support more context-aware decisions in complex, real-world environments.
Apollo’s impact zone is designed to immediately pause movement when an object is detected within its defined radius. Its configurable perimeter zone allows teams to adjust how the robot behaves as people, equipment, or obstacles enter the surrounding workspace, helping create a safer and more adaptable operating environment.
