Integration of GPU power with real-time control

Benefit from connecting AI models with real-time robot control on the same platform, eliminating the need for external resources when conducting tasks like combined object detection and grasp-planning.

Simplified research setup

Easily create, manage, and switch between research setups using a sandboxed development environment that integrates with docker containers (e.g. LLMs and vision models).

Extended capabilities

Out-of-the-box compatibility with an expanding array of popular hardware devices (e.g. Intel^® RealSense™) and software components.

Multi-user, multi-experiment management

Quickly transfer setups and data in the same lab or share them with other institutions, facilitating dissemination of research results and methodology, thereby fostering collaboration.

A growing ecosystem

Franka AI Companion is only one of Franka's ecosystem enhancements, complementing and easily integrating with offerings such as Franka MATLAB Toolbox and Franka ROS 2. These synergies empower you to leverage the robust data acquisition and real-time control capabilities of Franka robots.
