Wandercraft & Renault Reveal CALVIN – The Fastest-Built Humanoid Robot Yet?
Wandercraft, the French robotics company known for helping people walk again with advanced exoskeletons, just took a bold step into industrial robotics — meet Calvin, their new humanoid robot, reportedly built in just 40 days. That’s quicker than most of us can assemble flat-pack furniture.
Originally focused on medical mobility, Wandercraft’s tech helped a paraplegic athlete carry the Olympic flame — a powerful symbol of progress. Now, thanks to a new partnership and investment from Renault, they’re expanding into the factory floor.
Calvin is designed to handle repetitive, non-ergonomic tasks, freeing up human workers and boosting productivity. He doesn’t have grasping hands yet — but he can move boxes like a pro.
Meanwhile, Wandercraft’s exoskeletons continue to evolve, with their Atalante X and new Personal Exoskeleton bringing hands-free walking to clinics — and soon, perhaps, your living room.
It’s mobility meets manufacturing — and Wandercraft’s just getting started.
