The Ami Desktop Social Humanoid Robot is a character-driven platform in the Engineered Arts Mesmer Gen3 desktop lineup, developed by Engineered Arts, a UK-based pioneer in social robotics and embodied AI with over two decades of engineering experience. Designed for commercial environments where personality shapes the interaction, Ami brings a warm, distinctly human social presence to classrooms, corporate receptions, branded hospitality, and museum exhibit floors.
The platform features 32 degrees of freedom and an enhanced expression system that enables nuanced, lifelike facial and gestural responses to human interaction. Integrated cameras, binaural microphones, and speakers support real-time, two-way audio-visual communication, while multi-speaker detection accurate to 300ms ensures responsive, natural engagement in busy environments. Wi-Fi setup completes in under 5 minutes, making deployment fast and accessible across a wide range of venue types.
Ami runs on Tritium, Engineered Arts' proprietary robot operating system combining a cloud-based AI conversational engine with a lightweight Linux-based operating system and a fully web-based management interface accessible from any internet-connected browser. Tritium AI integrates speech recognition, natural language processing, and text-to-speech into a unified platform supporting multilingual interactions and customizable persona configurations. The included Agent Builder connects directly to existing tools and LLMs, allowing operators to define behavior profiles, curate knowledge bases, build specific roles and tasks, and adjust communication styles to meet specific brand or institutional requirements — all through a no-code, role-based setup. Ami Desktop meets GDPR and CCPA compliance standards.

Purpose-built for environments where reliability, personality, and real-world integration matter — from classroom floors to enterprise reception to museum exhibit halls.
Ami is the first EA robot with native Wi-Fi, pairing via Bluetooth on iOS or Android, and easy setup in under 5 minutes. Wired ethernet is also supported. The Agent Builder then connects Ami to any LLM and external tools via MCP integrations, enabling deterministic workflow execution through a fully web-based interface with no local installation needed.
32 DOF across brows, eyes, eyelids, lips, jaw, and neck. Ami's enhanced expression model calibrates facial and head movement to conversation state — listening, speaking, and thinking in a continuous, context-aware, non-repetitive experience.
Ami's perception stack links audio detection to real-time visual face-tracking. When a new speaker enters a conversation, Ami identifies and engages in under half a second. In busy environments with multiple people speaking simultaneously, Ami responds to the correct speaker individually — without blending answers or losing conversational context.
Ami runs GDPR/CCPA-ready privacy controls built for institutional buyers: time-bounded support access windows, a dedicated Privacy Centre, Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), and immutable audit logging. Bring-your-own-LLM support via Agent Builder means organizations with fine-tuned proprietary models can run them directly on the platform.
100% web-based, no local install. Subscriptions and AI tokens managed via self-service portal. Annual token allowance included; stackable top-up bundles available that never expire.
4-mic beamforming array captures up to 4 simultaneous audio streams, isolating the target voice in crowded environments like classrooms, reception desks, and exhibit floors.
Eye-mounted cameras for gaze and facial recognition, plus a wide-angle chest camera for stable spatial context unaffected by head movement. Critical for continuous visual data capture and multi-person speaker tracking.
Built for HRI, agentic AI, and social robotics programs that can't compromise on data quality. Research-grade sensor fidelity, full ROS compatibility, and bring-your-own-LLM flexibility make Ami a credible platform for publishable work.
