What We Build

Portable Cognitive Architectures for Physical Robotics.

Illy Robotic Instruments engineers portable cognitive architectures — specialized AI personas designed for seamless integration into physical robotic platforms. Our templated LLM frameworks allow for the rapid deployment of domain-specific intelligence, instantly equipping humanoid and autonomous systems for complex environments across manufacturing, clinical healthcare, public safety, education, and corporate activations.

AI Personas
Role-tuned cognitive profiles with domain knowledge, tone, and task boundaries pre-loaded.
Templated LLM Frameworks
Re-usable scaffolds that deploy in hours, not weeks — swap domains without re-engineering the stack.
Platform-Agnostic
Integrates into humanoid and autonomous systems — Unitree G1 today, adjacent platforms tomorrow.
Meet the Robot

Unitree G1 EDU β€” Standard U3

The G1 is a full-size bipedal humanoid built for research, education, and real-world demonstration. With 23+ degrees of freedom, high-torque actuators, LiDAR + depth perception, and an on-board AI compute stack, it walks, runs, balances on uneven terrain, manipulates objects, and interacts with people in real time. I own the U3 (Standard EDU) configuration personally and tune every behavior in-house before arriving on site.

πŸ€–
Bipedal Locomotion
Walking, running, stair climbing, recovery from pushes.
🧠
On-Board AI
LLM-driven speech, vision, and contextual responses.
πŸ‘οΈ
LiDAR + Depth Sensing
3D mapping, obstacle avoidance, person tracking.
βœ‹
Dexterous Manipulation
Object pick-and-place, handoffs, gesture performance.
Fully Customized, Every Time

No two demos are the same.

Before your event, I sit down with your team β€” in person, by phone, or over video β€” to understand exactly what you want the robot to do, say, and show. Then I program the G1 from the ground up for your audience: scripted dialogue in your brand voice, custom motion sequences, industry-specific walk-throughs, interactive Q&A, product handoffs, branded intros, and choreographed routines.

You don't get a canned robot show. You get a bespoke engineering deliverable, presented live, by the person who built it.

1
Discovery Call
We define goals, audience, environment, and any branding or messaging requirements.
2
Custom Programming
Motion sequences, dialogue, interactions, and sensor behavior are built specifically for your demo.
3
On-Site Rehearsal
I arrive early to survey the space, re-calibrate for terrain and lighting, and run a dry pass.
4
Live Demonstration
The full custom demo is performed live, with me present as operator and engineer throughout.
Who Should Book

Built for the industries shaping Western New York.

Humanoid robotics is no longer theoretical β€” it's being deployed in factories, hospitals, classrooms, and public-safety operations right now. A live demo is the fastest, lowest-risk way to see how this technology fits your mission.

🏭

Manufacturing & Industrial

See firsthand how a humanoid platform moves through a real shop floor β€” inspecting equipment, retrieving parts, performing repetitive pick-and-place, and navigating around operators. A live demo helps plant managers, safety officers, and automation engineers evaluate ROI, ergonomics impact, and integration potential with existing PLC and SCADA systems before committing to a capital-expense pilot.

Ideal for: Plant Managers β€’ Ops Directors β€’ Safety & Automation Teams
πŸ₯

Hospitals & Healthcare Systems

Humanoids are entering healthcare as logistics couriers, patient-companionship platforms, and staff-assist devices. A live demo shows nursing leadership, facilities, and innovation teams how a G1 can carry supplies between units, perform rounding walk-bys, offer patient check-ins, and integrate with EHR workflows β€” all while giving clinicians direct, hands-on exposure to the technology reshaping their next decade of care delivery.

Ideal for: Hospital Administrators β€’ CNOs β€’ Innovation Labs β€’ Patient-Experience Teams
πŸŽ“

Schools & Universities

From K–12 STEM assemblies to university engineering, CS, and robotics programs, nothing inspires like a real, walking, talking humanoid in the room. I tailor each demo to the grade level or curriculum β€” introductory robotics for middle schoolers, ROS/AI architecture deep-dives for undergrads, or interactive research discussions for faculty. Perfect for career days, open houses, STEAM nights, accreditation showcases, and donor events.

Ideal for: Superintendents β€’ Deans β€’ STEM Coordinators β€’ Robotics & CS Departments
πŸ›‘οΈ

Police, Federal & Public Safety

Law-enforcement and federal agencies are actively evaluating bipedal platforms for reconnaissance, hazardous-entry support, training scenarios, and community-engagement outreach. A controlled, hands-on demo gives tactical teams, training divisions, and command staff a safe environment to assess capability, understand operational limits, and explore future procurement β€” without the overhead of a national RFP visit.

Ideal for: Chiefs β€’ SWAT & Tactical β€’ Training Divisions β€’ Federal Field Offices
Packages & Pricing

Fully Insured & Documented

$1M CGL coverage β€” because professionalism matters.

Illy Robotic Instruments carries a current Commercial General Liability (CGL) policy with $1,000,000 per-incident coverage. A certificate of insurance (COI) naming your organization as an additional insured can be provided upon request prior to the event. All demonstrations are performed with the developer-operator on site, in a controlled, supervised environment, with appropriate safety perimeters.

Liability & Scope-of-Coverage Language (included in every booking agreement)

1. Insurance. Illy Robotic Instruments ("Provider") maintains Commercial General Liability insurance of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, covering third-party bodily injury and property damage arising out of the on-site operation of the Unitree G1 humanoid platform ("Equipment") during the scheduled demonstration.

2. Operator Control. The Equipment shall at all times remain under the direct supervision and operational control of Provider or an authorized Provider operator. Client, its employees, guests, or invitees shall not operate the Equipment except under Provider's express direction and supervision.

3. Safety Perimeter. Client agrees to provide a reasonable, obstruction-free operating area and to respect the safety perimeter designated by Provider prior to the demonstration. Client will reasonably ensure that attendees follow Provider's verbal safety instructions.

4. Exclusions. Coverage does not extend to: (a) damage caused by Client's willful interference with the Equipment; (b) losses arising from environmental conditions not disclosed to Provider in advance (e.g., live electrical hazards, unmarked drop-offs, hazardous chemicals); (c) cyber, data, or intellectual-property claims; or (d) consequential or indirect damages.

5. Indemnification. Each party shall indemnify and hold the other harmless for claims arising from its own negligence or willful misconduct. Provider's aggregate liability under this agreement shall not exceed the limits of its CGL policy.

6. Media & Likeness. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Provider may photograph or record the demonstration for portfolio and marketing purposes, excluding any confidential client information, minors without parental consent, or restricted facility areas.

7. Cancellation. Cancellations made more than 14 days prior to the scheduled date receive a full refund less any custom-programming work already performed. Cancellations inside 14 days forfeit a 50% deposit. Weather- or safety-driven rescheduling is handled without penalty.

The foregoing is a summary. The full executed service agreement, including Certificate of Insurance, is delivered to Client upon booking confirmation and must be signed prior to the demonstration.
