Bear Robotics Launches KINO-2 Through Engineering Collaboration with NVIDIA
Bear Robotics has launched KINO-2, a robot-learning platform that transforms task demonstrations into deployable manipulation skills for its KR1 humanoid robot. The platform integrates with NVIDIA Isaac OS and leverages foundation models to enhance inference speed and operational efficiency in commercial environments.
