Navel robotics - AI-driven Care Robots
About navel robotics
Navel robotics is a German start-up that is developing and offering the social robot Navel. With its deep tech approach to social intelligence, Navel is unique, which is why international researchers as well as big German care providers are working with it. For example, Navel provides additional emotional and cognitive activation for people in need of care and relieves the burden on nursing staff. It is helpful to see Navel in action: A ZDF video feature is on our webpage https://navelrobotics.com/en/. - We have been producing a small series of approx. 4 robots per month since October (approx. 80k€ turnover each month) - We address a very large international market that is urgently looking for solutions to the shortage of skilled workers, especially in social areas (geriatric care, childcare, psychotherapy, etc.). - We have large care providers as customers; others are queuing up. - We are a senior team, interdisciplinary including serial entrepreneurs - Our solution is scalable and has a strong social impact
