Corporate Growth & Milestones

Section titled “Corporate Growth & Milestones”

  1. Foundation & Core Development (2011–2023)

    Section titled “Foundation & Core Development (2011–2023)”

    Founded by Issei Takino (CEO) and Dr. Rosen Diankov (CTO) in Tokyo. The team spent a decade developing the core mathematical models behind MujinMI (Machine Intelligence), pioneering collision-free motion planning and 3D perception.

  2. Top-Tier Patent Growth & Digital Twin UI (2024)

    Section titled “Top-Tier Patent Growth & Digital Twin UI (2024)”

    Ranked 17th in Japan in the Patent Value Growth Ranking by LexisNexis PatentSight, recognizing Mujin’s rapid innovation and highly cited IP portfolio in autonomous robotics.

    • Launched the redesigned MujinController UI, allowing non-experts to execute drag-and-drop box size changes and run real-time Digital Twin simulations without halting live operations.

  3. $233M Series D & Global Unification (2025)

    Section titled “$233M Series D & Global Unification (2025)”

    Closed a massive Series D round (raising over $233 Million in equity and debt) led by NTT Group and QIA—ranking #1 in Nikkei’s 2025 startup equity funding ranking—to transition from a components supplier to a “Total Automation” provider.

    • Formed the Global Leadership Cabinet to unify operations across the US, Europe, China, and Japan.
    • Launched the System Integrator (SI) Partner Program to open up MujinOS APIs to third-party developers.

  4. The Physical AI Era & Total Platform for Automation (2026)

    Section titled “The Physical AI Era & Total Platform for Automation (2026)”

    MujinOS has evolved from individual robot control to a comprehensive Total Platform for Automation, directing the complete flow of goods, AGVs, and robot fleets.

Current Technology Stack

Section titled “Current Technology Stack”

MujinOS

Modular, microservice-driven software stack running on realtime Linux nodes.

MujinController

The high-performance edge computing hardware that runs MujinOS and connects local 3D perception and motion planning with robot controllers.

3D Perception

Proprietary multi-camera 3D vision pipeline processing point clouds in under 200ms. Combines deep learning segmentation with high-precision 3D pose estimation, instantly recognizing unknown, mixed, or deformable items without pre-registered CAD models or manual teaching.

Real-Time Motion Planning

Pioneered by Dr. Rosen Diankov’s mathematical motion solvers, MujinMI dynamically calculates high-DoF collision-free trajectories in milliseconds. Automatically handles obstacles, kinematics limits, and singularity points on the fly without pre-programmed teaching points or error stops.
