About Honda Robotics
Honda Robotics develops assistive and task-specific robot technology from research established through the ASIMO programme.
ASIMO work contributed biped locomotion, balance, human-environment operation and fall-safety research. Honda now applies that technical base across robots with narrower functions intended to support people in particular situations. The current strategy distributes assistance across task-specific systems; individual robots therefore need their own evidence for availability, capability and operating context.
