Toyota Motor Corporation intends to introduce 400,000 humanoid units into its manufacturing sites and key supply chain partners. This initiative aligns with the renovation of aging Toyota Group facilities, aiming to establish workspaces where these machines operate alongside human staff.
The company utilizes its proprietary humanoid, ELEY, for this deployment. ELEY moves on wheels and runs on generative artificial intelligence developed by the Toyota Research Institute. Reports indicate that Toyota plans to invest 1 trillion yen annually starting in 2028 to install these robots across 60 global factories.
