About Talus Robotics
Summary
Talus Robotics builds robotic guide dogs for blind and visually impaired people, replacing trained animal guides that cost roughly $80,000 and are out of reach for the vast majority of those who need them. Its robotic alternative delivers the same navigation assistance at a fraction of the price. The company plans to extend the same platform into elder care and emotional support.
Business model
Under $5,000 per robotic guide dog unit
