Talus Robotics
One day robot pets. Right now robot guide dogs for the blind - empowering them to navigate their world safely, independently, and confidently.
About
Traditional seeing-eye guide dogs cost around $80,000—leaving over 99% of those who need them without access. At Talus Robotics, our mission is to transform this reality and champion independence and inclusion for the blind and visually impaired. We’ve developed groundbreaking robotic guide dogs that cost under $5,000, delivering unprecedented freedom, safety, and empowerment to those who’ve long been underserved. After that, we're tackling adjacent markets in elder care and emotional support. One day we're building a world full of robot pets and companions, outside and in the home - a future where robotics enrich every aspect of our social lives, living with us and building lifelong relationships.
