On October 13, KGAA announced that it had successfully completed the second round of testing for its pilot product, the expandable power solution for humanoid robots called the Frame Integrated Lithium Ion Battery (FIB).
During this second round of testing, the FIB demonstrated excellent results in key areas including charging and discharging, physical properties, performance, specifications, durability, and wear resistance. Based on the collected test data, KGAA plans to collaborate with Mobil Robotics to produce engineering samples and continue to advance the technology.
Additionally, following the recent signing of a business agreement with the autonomous robot startup Mobinn, KGAA intends to accelerate research and development to expand the application of its solutions beyond humanoids to a wide range of advanced robotics and mobility applications.
The FIB and FIS, currently under development by KGAA, are innovative core devices designed to overcome the limitations of conventional single-battery drive systems in humanoid robots, drones, and urban air mobility (UAM) vehicles. The modular internal structure, which integrates the external cover and battery, enables both increased battery capacity and improved space efficiency while preserving design integrity.
When applied to humanoid robots, these solutions can significantly extend operating time and address or resolve reboot delays caused by battery replacement. The custom structure, based on 3D design, allows for broad compatibility with major global humanoid and quadruped robot brands such as Tesla, Figure AI, Unitree, Agility, and Boston Dynamics.
A KGAA representative stated, "After further development following the first test, we have successfully completed the second round of testing. Building on these results, we will actively pursue business collaborations not only with companies involved in the first round of discussions but also with new partners."
