A few weeks ago I had the pleasure to visit @2nisi at the ETH Robotic System Lab (@leggedrobotic) and see some history - below you can see early versions of @anybotics ANYmal.

Eris and his brother Dimitris Sako are the founders of @duatic_ag, building human-scale robots, also below you’ll see one of their self developed robotic arms.

🇪🇺Europe remains a quiet leader in robotics and AI, home to some of the world’s most advanced research labs.

Thanks again, Eris. Can’t wait to follow what’s coming from your side!

This 9.2 kg robotic arm from @duatic_ag doesn’t just look fast.
It IS fast.

He moves it like it’s nothing.
But it lifts more than its weight…

🎙️ I sat down with Duatic Co-Founder @2nisi to talk about how they built it and where it’s heading. ⬇️

Below Eris shows just how effortless the interaction is:

gripping the end of the arm and swinging it around like a joystick.

No lag.
No resistance.
Just precision.

Here’s what makes it special:

✅ Weighs 9.2 kg, lifts 12+ kg
✅ Low-inertia, high-response quasi-direct drive
✅ Works even in the rain or on rough terrain
✅ Controlled with a PlayStation joystick
✅ Built for mobile robots in unstructured environments

Durable, responsive, and light.
This is what muscle looks like when it meets mobility.
