About Us
That’s why 1X’s products are inspired by human nature, inside and out.
Our Story
Originally founded as Halodi Robotics, CEO Bernt Øyvind Børnich founded the company to realize a new solution: general purpose robots that can perform labor alongside humans.
Inspired by human nature, we developed the world’s highest torque to weight drive servo motor, Revo1. Tailored explicitly for low gear-ratio robotics and flexible mechanics, Revo1 mimics organic muscle movement in our products.
In 2019, we opened our first office outside of Norway in California. Now, we're a global team collaborating around the world daily.
We announced out partnership with Everon by ADT Commercial, including an international contract to deploy 150-250 androids for night guarding in US commercial buildings.
In 2022 we partnered with the world leader in artificial intelligence, OpenAI, to combine robotics and AI and lay the foundation for embodied learning.
Now, we’re building androids at commercial scale, to train our proprietary embodied learning model and work alongside our partners. As EVE and NEO work, they’ll get smarter about how to inhabit our world.
Safety First
1X tests every android in real-world scenarios before they’re deployed.
Their soft, organically-inspired mechanics make them safer from the inside out, so they’re ready for your space.
Balanced Performance
They move like us, so they can meet your needs. 1X engineers our products for high precision and gentle strength, modeled after human muscle movement, so they can fit into your work in a more natural, intuitive way.
Smart Behavior
Androids embody artificial intelligence. 1X combines thoughtfully-designed bodies with advanced AI minds, so they can move throughout your space and you can control them from a distance.
AI innovators.
World-class roboticists. Just curious people.
Our androids combine so many cutting edge technologies, to benefit society in so many spaces and industries. No matter what inspires you, apply to join the movement at 1X.
