At the core of Exodus Actuation is a patented gear geometry, formerly thought impossible under traditional gear theory, that reduces sliding friction at the tooth-to-tooth interface by an order of magnitude.
This 10X reduction in sliding friction delivers a new level of efficiency and backdrivability, and for many applications, the ability to replace metal gears with low-cost injection-molded plastic. Together, these advancements address the three biggest barriers to humanoid robot deployment: power consumption, safe human interaction, and cost.
Innovative Gears
High Efficiency
The Exodus gear geometry reduces sliding friction by an order of magnitude. This reduces power consumption and heat production for increased run time between charges, lighter weight and lower total system production cost.
TRANSPARENCY
Also known as backdrivability, the low friction of the Exodus actuator allows for smooth human-like motion and safe interaction with humans.
power Density
The high efficiency of the Exodus actuator enables higher speeds for increased power and productivity.
