Punyo- Toyota’s new soft robot for whole-body manipulation research.
Toyota’s TRI is creating robots that enhance human abilities instead of replacing them.
Their latest project, Punyo, exemplifies this goal. The Punyo team concentrates on handling large objects with the arms and chest, supplementing TRI’s existing work on precise hand and gripper manipulation.
