Moxi 2.0 Brings Smarter AI to the Hospital Hallway
- The updated Moxi platform features new AI infrastructure, custom-built hardware, and expanded compute through NVIDIA’s IGX Thor.
- Based on 1.25 million hospital deliveries, Moxi 2.0 is engineered for real-time navigation, prediction, and manipulation in crowded human environments.
Diligent Robotics has launched Moxi 2.0, the next version of its robot designed to work in busy hospital settings. It’s based on more than a million deliveries completed by the original Moxi, which informed a full redesign to better handle the complexity of real-world clinical environments.
The new version adds a foundation model built to improve navigation and precision tasks, trained directly on that live deployment data. It also features NVIDIA’s IGX Thor platform, delivering ten times more compute for faster inference and more advanced AI models. Mechanical upgrades include components optimized for scale, along with improved handles and servicing panels.
Moxi robots currently assist staff in over two dozen U.S. hospitals, handling routine transport tasks. Moxi 2.0 is built to allow multiple units per site and will support expansion into senior living through Diligent’s participation in the AgeTech Collaborative from AARP. The company projects annual footprint growth and aims to reach thousands of deployed systems by 2030.
🌀 Tom’s Take:
Diligent Robotics is using the data, edge cases, and feedback from version 1.0 as the foundation to give Moxi an upgrade that makes it more useful and a robot that can scale.
