ROBROS joins Crest-led KIRIA humanoid battery-system demonstration
ROBROS will provide IGRIS-C as the validation platform for Crest's KIRIA-backed hot-swappable humanoid battery-system and charging-station programme.
Why it matters
Crest was selected as lead institution for KIRIA's 2026 humanoid component demonstration programme, working with ROBROS to validate a hot-swappable battery system and charging station on IGRIS-C.
Evidence notes
- The demonstration will run through the end of 2026 and cover Crest's intelligent BMS, hot-swappable battery pack and charging-station architecture.
- ROBROS will provide the IGRIS-C industrial humanoid as the exact validation platform.
- A three-year results-utilisation period is intended to move the validated component system toward commercialisation after the demonstration.
