Meet Yogi

Full stack design by Cartwheel Robotics.

At the core of Yogi is embodied AI, seamlessly integrated into every layer of our full-stack design. Hardware, firmware, intelligence, and interaction work together in harmony, allowing Yogi to move naturally, respond intuitively, and feel like a warm, lively presence.

Materials

Soft, safe, silicone skin.

Yogi’s skin is made from soft, medical-grade silicone that feels gentle to the touch and safe for everyday interaction. It’s durable enough for the real world, yet welcoming enough for children and families. Woven soft goods protect his joints from pinch points, ensuring comfort and safety in every movement.

Actuation

Industry leading torque density & safety.

Marvelous engineering within Yogi’s actuators enables industry-leading torque density for powerful yet fluid motion, while an integrated overload protection mechanism keeps the gearbox safe and reliable.

Interaction

Communicate without words.

Yogi doesn’t just move—he emotes. With lifelike eyes, a bright smile, and natural gestures, Yogi communicates in ways that feel familiar and warm. Every glance, tilt, and smile is designed to connect.

Functionality

Swappable.
Reliable.
Ready.

Yogi’s high-capacity removable battery is built for safety, convenience, and all-day use. A simple swap means he’s instantly powered up again, ensuring he’s by your side whenever you need him.

Interaction

A glow that speaks volumes.

From calm blues to playful yellows, Yogi’s head illumination changes with his mood. More than a signal, it’s an atmosphere—bringing warmth and energy into the room while keeping you in tune with him.
