Tour · by appointment only
See and test humanoid robots on our shop floor in Schiedam.
At the Humanoid Application Center (HAC) in Schiedam, the Netherlands, you see humanoids and robot dogs at work in 60 to 90 minutes, among the engineers who program and test them. Tours are by appointment only, for companies and organisations with a concrete question. Hands-on testing comes afterwards, in a masterclass or as a Studio Partner.

What you see in 60 to 90 minutes
No rehearsed show. We show what we are working on that week, tailored to your question:
- 01
Introduction
Who you are and what you want to know. We already ask this when you request the tour.
- 02
Robots at work
Humanoids and robot dogs from Unitree, AgiBot and UBTech, among others. Which robots run that day depends on tests and maintenance.
- 03
Behind the scenes
Simulation, teleoperation and software, how we test safely, and where things still go wrong.
- 04
Your question
What could work in your company, what not yet, and a sensible first step.
