AEON integrates high-performance locomotion, sensor fusion, and AI-driven spatial intelligence to address labor shortages and support a wide range of industrial applications. Initial pilots with Schaeffler<\/strong> and Pilatus<\/strong> will explore AEON\u2019s capabilities across diverse environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Launched at Hexagon LIVE Global in Stockholm, Sweden,<\/strong> AEON is the first product from Hexagon\u2019s newly formed Robotics<\/a> division. Purpose-built for real-world challenges, AEON combines Hexagon\u2019s precision sensors with advanced mobility, mission control, and environmental awareness. Its applications span manipulation, asset inspection, digital reality capture, and operator assistance\u2014supporting industries including automotive, aerospace, transportation, manufacturing, warehousing, and logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cFor more than a decade, Hexagon has been advancing robotics innovation across our divisions,\u201d said Ola Roll\u00e9n, Chairman of the Board, Hexagon<\/strong>. \u201cAEON is a milestone in humanoid robotics\u2014an industrially tailored system that enhances agility, safety, and sustainability while helping customers adapt to structural demographic shifts.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Key Capabilities of AEON<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Agility:<\/strong> Combines dexterity and precise locomotion with Hexagon\u2019s proprietary measurement technology.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Awareness:<\/strong> Uses multimodal sensor data and spatial reasoning to interpret environments and optimize tasks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Versatility:<\/strong> Handles a wide range of functions, from object manipulation and component inspection to digital twin creation and teleoperation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Continuous Operation:<\/strong> Features a battery-swapping mechanism that eliminates downtime for charging.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Arnaud Robert, President of Hexagon\u2019s Robotics division<\/strong>, added:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    \u201cWith AEON, we\u2019re taking physical AI to the factory floor\u2014delivering real solutions for industry. We\u2019re working closely with partners and, over the next six months, will deploy AEON in live production environments before scaling commercially.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

    Industry Collaborations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Pilatus<\/strong> will test AEON in its factories to enhance automation and competitiveness in Swiss manufacturing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Schaeffler<\/strong> will integrate AEON into production workflows, building on its long-standing leadership in motion technologies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Hexagon has also partnered with NVIDIA, Microsoft, and maxon<\/strong> to bring AEON to market. The robot is powered by NVIDIA\u2019s accelerated computing, Omniverse, and Jetson platforms; trained and scaled on Microsoft Azure; and driven by maxon\u2019s next-generation actuators for efficient locomotion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
