“Dexterous capability is directly proportional to the size of the addressable market for general-purpose humanoid robots,” says James Wells, interim CEO and CCO. Sanctuary AI announces its latest breakthrough with hydraulic actuation and precise in-hand manipulation, opening up a wide range of industrial and high value work tasks. Hydraulics has significantly more power density than electric actuators in terms of force and velocity. Sanctuary has invented miniaturized valves that are 50x faster and 6x cheaper than off the shelf hydraulic valves. This novel approach to actuation results in extremely low power consumption, unmatched cycle life and controllability that can fit within the size constraints of a human-sized hand and forearm.

Sanctuary AI, founded in 2018, is a Vancouver-based company focused on creating the world’s first human-like intelligence in general-purpose robots. The company wants to enhance work safety, efficiency, and sustainability by addressing labor shortages with advanced robotic solutions.

Sanctuary AI’s mission includes developing robots capable of performing tasks across industries, facilitated by their innovative AI control system, Carbon™.

Sanctuary AI Humanoid Robot

Phoenix™: Phoenix is Sanctuary AI’s sixth-generation general-purpose humanoid robot, designed to perform tasks to address labor challenges. Standing at 5’7″ and weighing 155 lbs, Phoenix has advanced sensor technology and industry-leading robotic hands featuring 20 degrees of freedom.

These hands can finely manipulate and mimic human touch through proprietary haptic technology. Phoenix can carry a payload of up to 55 lbs and move up to 3 miles per hour. It uses the Carbon™ AI control system, which integrates advanced AI technologies to enable Phoenix to understand and act on tasks autonomously or under human supervision.​
