Fourier GR-1
Shanghai-baserad Fourier:s första generella humanoid. Säljs aktivt till forsknings- och utvecklingsmarknad globalt. Företaget kommer från medicinsk rehab-robotik.
Vad GR-1 är
GR-1 (Generalist Robot 1) är Fourier:s steg från medicinsk rehab-robotik till generell humanoidplattform. Företaget har levererat enheter till universitet och forsknings-labb i USA, Europa och Asien. Detta är en av få kinesiska humanoider med faktisk export till väst.
Bakgrunden från rehab
Fourier:s tidigare produkter (rehabexoskelett, ortoser) har krävt regulatorisk certifiering på allvar (CE-MDR, FDA). Den erfarenheten är värdefull när humanoider en dag närmar sig konsument- och vårdmarknad. Få av de stora västerländska konkurrenterna har den compliance-bakgrunden.
Sverige-vinkel
Möjlig forsknings-import till nordiska universitet, inga publikt kända installationer. För svensk vårdsektor (där Fourier:s rehab-bakgrund är relevant) finns dialog men inga konkreta upphandlingar offentliggjorda.
