ALLEX is a humanoid robot developed by WIRobotics, a robotics company based in South Korea. Korean manipulation specialist with 15 DOF hands and 30kg+ hook-grip. Features ultra-low-friction backdrivable actuators with ≤0.3mm fingertip repeatability.
ALLEX from South Korean startup WIRobotics is a humanoid emphasizing safe, compliant physical interaction. It utilizes proprietary ultra-low-friction actuators that offer 10x less resistance than conventional motors, making the robot inherently safe to touch and interact with.
A standout feature is its 15-DOF compliant hands, which are robust enough to exert 40N of force yet sensitive enough to handle fragile objects without traditional force sensors. The robot features a gravity-compensated upper body for energy efficiency. WIRobotics, founded by former Samsung engineers, designed ALLEX to bring safe, responsive humanoid assistance out of the lab and into daily life.
