About Phoenix
Phoenix is Sanctuary AI's humanoid robot, distinguished by its focus on cognitive AI rather than just physical capability. Standing 170 cm tall and weighing 70 kg, it features 20 degrees of freedom and moves at 3 km/h. Sanctuary AI's key differentiator is Carbon, its proprietary AI system designed to achieve human-like general intelligence for robotic control. Phoenix is deployed in pilot programs with retailers including Magna International. The company, based in Vancouver, Canada, has raised over $140 million in funding. Phoenix targets a broad range of tasks from retail stocking to light manufacturing. The robot uses teleoperation as a training mechanism, with human operators providing demonstrations that the AI system learns from. Sanctuary AI positions Phoenix not just as a robot but as a platform for embodied artificial general intelligence.
