Pune-based company developing humanoid robots to explore Moon, Mars
What's the story
Pune-based Muks Robotics, founded by Dr. Mukesh Bangar, is leading the way in creating cutting-edge robots for planetary exploration.
The company is primarily focused on Moon and Mars missions.
Among its creations are Spaceo Prime and Robo Prime—two robots designed to collect and analyze planetary data on-site and provide real-time inferences directly to Earth.
Capabilities
Spaceo Prime: A humanoid for interplanetary colonization
Spaceo Prime, a bipedal humanoid robot, comes with advanced AI technology that could aid in the construction of colonies on Mars and beyond.
Its capability to navigate and also analyze planetary environments makes it an invaluable asset for future space missions.
This innovative approach to AI-powered robotics is not only transforming industries on Earth but also pushing the boundaries of space exploration.
Terrain adaptation
Robo Prime: A solution for Martian challenges
Robo Prime, another creation of Muks Robotics, is specifically designed for Mars's terrain.
Dr. Bangar recently highlighted the firm's collaboration with the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) at the India Today Conclave 2025.
The collaboration aims to develop robots capable of exploring areas that are inaccessible to humans, paving the way for sustainable human presence on other planets.
Future plans
Muks Robotics's vision for interplanetary exploration
Muks Robotics envisions deploying intelligent robots to other planets in order to safeguard human existence and create self-sustaining colonies.
The company's groundbreaking work is redefining the field of robotics by integrating advanced AI technologies like Omni-Multimodal AI and Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).
It is not only transforming industries on Earth but also pushing the boundaries of space exploration.
