- A mobile base with strong navigation and obstacle avoidance for safe operation in homes, labs, and workplaces.
- Powerful onboard computing with support for modern AI models (including large language models for task planning).
- An open-source and highly extensible software stack, making it easy for developers and researchers to program custom behaviors.
- Improved robustness, battery life, and user experience based on six years of customer feedback.
Stretch 4 is designed to be approachable and safe. It supports multiple use cases:
- Assist: Helping individuals with severe mobility impairments gain independence at home (through a dedicated pilot program).
- Research: Serving as an open platform for robotics and AI research in manipulation, navigation, human-robot interaction, and embodied intelligence.
- Enterprise: Enabling companies to develop and deploy custom automation solutions for logistics, inventory, inspection, and service tasks.
