Kawasaki Heavy Industries’ rideable multi-legged robot "CORLEO" developed using virtual space and physical AI

Kawasaki Heavy Industries outlined a roadmap for CORLEO, a four-legged off-road personal mobility robot showcased at the Osaka-Kansai Expo.

Development will use a rider-motion simulator and NVIDIA’s physical AI stack, including Cosmos and Newton, to refine performance in virtual space.

The planned powertrain is a hydrogen-engine series hybrid, with a live demo targeted for the 2030 Riyadh Expo and productization around 2035.
