# Devanthro Becomes Plim Robotics, Reveals a Home Robot Loved Ones Can Step Into

## Retrieval answer

Devanthro has rebranded as Plim Robotics and revealed Plim, a wheeled home robot intended for household assistance, companionship, and remote operation by a relative, friend, or caregiver.

Devanthro has rebranded as Plim Robotics and revealed Plim, a wheeled home robot intended for household assistance, companionship, and remote operation by a relative, friend, or caregiver. In its “step-in” mode, the remote operator’s face appears on the robot’s visor while they use its cameras, voice, and body to interact in the home.

The company lists a 1.65-metre, 80-kilogram platform with a three-wheel omnidirectional base, two arms with seven degrees of freedom, two-finger grippers, and a 3-kilogram payload. It names Nvidia Jetson Thor as onboard compute and ROS 2 as middleware. Listed sensors include stereo RGB and depth cameras, a 4K fisheye camera, millimetre-wave radar, and stereo microphones; connectivity includes 5G and Wi-Fi 6. Battery runtime is listed as two hours, with self-docking.

Plim says remote interaction can work across distances of up to 9,000 kilometres and that its work began in elderly care, with experience in real homes since 2024. The source does not establish a price, delivery date, commercial availability, task-success rates, autonomy level, or how often human intervention is required.
