Sanctuary AI Phoenix
Canadian-built general-purpose humanoid robot powered by the Carbon AI system
Sanctuary AI Phoenix is a Canadian-built general-purpose humanoid robot developed in Vancouver, British Columbia. Phoenix is powered by Sanctuary AI’s proprietary Carbon system, which the company describes as the world’s first human-like intelligence in a general-purpose robot. Standing at 170 cm and weighing 70 kg, Phoenix is designed to address labor shortages by performing a wide range of tasks that currently require human workers.
Carbon AI System
What sets Phoenix apart is its Carbon cognitive architecture, which combines large language models, computer vision, and embodied reasoning into a unified control system. This allows Phoenix to understand natural language instructions, perceive its environment, and plan multi-step tasks without extensive pre-programming. Sanctuary AI’s approach focuses on creating true general-purpose intelligence rather than task-specific automation.
