ABOUT US

A new era of human connection for all.

avatarin was established in 2020 to democratize mobility by opening the door to a world in which anyone can instantly and sustainably transport themselves to a remote destination. avatarin aims to achieve this goal through the development of core technologies that enable real-time teleportation of human presence and skills through robots and other mobility solutions. This new avatarin capability will not only help the world efficiently share its skills but also accelerate the catalyzation of real-world experiences and drive the next generation of human-centered AI.
