We build the AI brain for any robot
Perception · Planning · Autonomy · Fleet management
POLCERO builds an AI intelligence layer — perception, planning, control and fleet management — for humanoid and specialized robots. The same AI stack serves all POLCERO branches: fine-tuned VLA models, YOLO vision, edge+cloud architecture and a data flywheel. The robot hardware can be the customer's own or selected from our catalog; we supply the intelligence.
WHAT WE BUILD
Four layers of robot intelligence
VLA fine-tuning
Open VLA models (GR00T N1.7, π0, OpenVLA) fine-tuned on customer-specific data. Abstraction layer allows swapping base models without retraining your task intelligence.
Vision & perception
YOLO-class detection for real-time object recognition, depth cameras (RGB-D), LiDAR, multispectral and thermal. System 2 VLM for scene and language understanding.
Edge + cloud architecture
On-board edge inference for <10ms latency control. Cloud for training updates, analytics, fleet management. Data flywheel continuously improves performance.
Classic control where sufficient
PID controllers for simple, repetitive grasping and cutting — lower cost, higher reliability. Reserve AI for complex perception and scene-understanding decisions.
APPLICATIONS
Tasks and jobs robots can take over
Analyzed from field experience and current robotics deployments worldwide.
Construction site
- Site manager / supervisor — autonomous site walks, 360°/LiDAR scans
- Progress vs. BIM comparison — deviation detection, as-built documentation
- QA inspector — concrete, structure and finish quality checks
- Surveyor / layout — floor layout printing, column and wall positioning
- EHS coordinator — hazardous zone inspection, gas and heat detection, safety patrol
- Reality capture / inventory — material tracking, site digital twin
- Site security — perimeter patrol, after-hours monitoring
Warehouse & logistics
- Trailer / container unloading — suction gripper or humanoid
- Palletizing and depalletizing — cobot + vision system
- Order picking — AMR fleet + goods-to-person stations
- Forklift operator — autonomous pallet jack and forklifts
- Packer — robotic packing cells
- Receiving / dispatch controller — automated scanning and sorting
- Cycle counting — inspection robot or drone
- Goods-to-person — AutoStore, Symbotic-style high-density systems

Base models
NVIDIA GR00T N1.7 · Physical Intelligence π0/π0.5 · OpenVLA — commercially licensed, swappable
Two-system architecture
System 2 (VLM): scene & language understanding — System 1 (motion policy): high-frequency control, action chunking
Critical IP
Customer data · fine-tuning pipelines · integration layer · fleet management logic — not the base model

FAQ
Common questions about the AI brain
What is the POLCERO AI brain?+
The POLCERO AI brain is an intelligence layer we build for robots — combining VLA (vision-language-action) models fine-tuned on customer data, YOLO-class vision for detection, and fleet management. It runs on the robot's edge compute and connects to cloud for training.
Which robots can you add an AI brain to?+
We can integrate our brain with humanoid robots (Unitree G1/H1/H2, Atlas, Apollo, etc.) or specialized robots. We either integrate with the customer's existing robot, or help select the right platform from our catalog, then fine-tune and deploy.
Can a robot replace a construction site manager?+
A robot with our AI brain can perform many site management tasks: autonomous site walks with 360°/LiDAR capture, BIM comparison, deviation detection, EHS patrols, as-built documentation. Human decision-making remains in the loop for critical judgements.
How do you automate trailer unloading?+
We deploy robots like Boston Dynamics Stretch (mobile case-handler with suction gripper) or humanoids with our AI perception layer for trailer/container unloading. The robot uses computer vision to identify and unload cases 24/7, delivered as Robot-as-a-Service.
What is a VLA model?+
VLA = vision-language-action. An AI model combining visual perception, language understanding and action planning. POLCERO fine-tunes commercially-licensed VLA models (GR00T N1.7, π0, OpenVLA) on customer-specific data for precise robot control.
