Holiday Robotics, a South Korean startup established in April 2024, is focused on the development of general-purpose humanoid robots integrated with advanced artificial intelligence. The company was founded by Ki-young Song, who previously founded SUALAB, a deep learning-based vision inspection company that was acquired by the U.S.-based Cognex in 2019. This background in AI and machine vision provides a strong technical foundation for the company's current pursuits in the robotics sector.
The firm is developing AI-powered humanoid robots and advanced robotic arms designed to improve operational efficiency and precision in manufacturing processes. By integrating sophisticated AI software and hardware, their products aim to help manufacturers reduce labor costs and enhance productivity. The core of their business is centered on creating robots that can handle complex tasks in industrial settings. In August 2024, Holiday Robotics secured significant seed funding of approximately $12.9 million (KRW 17.5 billion) from a consortium of investors including Stonebridge Ventures, SpringCamp, Atinum Investment, Intervest, and Hyundai Motor Zer01ne. This capital is being directed towards recruiting talent in robotics and AI, and furthering the development of their humanoid robots. The company has also announced plans to establish a robotics research institute in the United States by the first half of 2025 to expand its research and development capabilities. Based in Seoul, South Korea, Holiday Robotics is positioning itself to address the growing demand for automation in the advanced manufacturing and other hardware industries.
