@AmbiRobotics started in a UC Berkeley lab, co-founded by UC Berkeley IEOR Professor @Ken_Goldberg and four UC Berkeley students. An incredible story!

Ambi traces back to a robotics lab at UC Berkeley, where researchers built the original “grasping” algorithms to let robots pick arbitrary items.

That academic core gave them a head start, not just hardware, but deep robot reasoning.

The robotics OG @Ken_Goldberg is there as well!
