Donut Robotics
Builds the cinnamon bipedal humanoid (about 170 cm), using vision-language-action AI to interpret surroundings and language and to learn movements from video and motion-capture data. Has filed a patent on gesture-based instruction. Charm Care has trialed cinnamon at a nursing home since July 2026 (patrol, with nurse-call assistance planned); a trial, not yet a paid deployment.
