The letter in the grey square after a figure points to the source the figure came from. Robots with several sources carry several letters.

A stroke before a field name means the figure carries a caveat that affects how it compares with other robots. The caveat is printed with the figure.

Imperial figures are our own conversion unless the manufacturer states an imperial figure itself. The source letter always belongs to the metric figure — a conversion has no source of its own.

The manufacturer’s words

We will continue our research so that, in the near future, ELEY can become a partner robot that works alongside our teammates on the production site and plays an active role there.

Notes

  • ELEY stands for "Embodied Learning robot for Enhanced Yield"; Toyota calls it a partner robot.
  • The producer's photos show a torso with a screen on top and two arms with grippers on a column above a wheeled base.
  • The producer says ELEY has two human-like arms for tasks such as assembling objects or opening a box with one hand while taking items with the other.
  • Every joint has a quasi-direct-drive (QDD) actuator, which lets the arm yield to external forces and make gentle contact, according to the producer.
  • ELEY has a scapular (shoulder-blade) axis for two-handed tasks such as pushing objects or opening a jar lid, according to the producer.
  • The joint spacing and arm thickness are designed to match the average size of an adult Japanese male, according to the producer.
  • Toyota names three open challenges: reliability in long operation, repeatable end-effector positioning, and a data infrastructure for robot learning.
  • Toyota plans to deploy ELEY under conditions close to real production sites and use both successes and failures as learning data.
  • The producer gives the Frontier Research Center's location as Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture, Japan.
