The technology that lets robots think for themselves — and the policy that decides whether they should.

Autonomy Classifications

We classify every robot and system by its autonomy level:

LevelDescriptionExamples
Fully AutonomousNo human intervention during operationDARPA RACER in reconnaissance mode
HybridAutonomous subsystems with human oversightFigure 02 in BMW factory, 1X NEO domestic tasks
TeleoperatedHuman operator controls high-level decisionsUnitree G1 in UFB matches, T-800 in URKL

Autonomy Type Taxonomy

Our articles are categorized by autonomy approach:

  • Fully Autonomous — Systems that operate independently once tasked
  • Hybrid — Human-supervised autonomous operation
  • Teleoperated — Human-directed with autonomous low-level control
