At the core of GAPbot is a neuro-symbolic hybrid AI architecture, built on robust Edge Computing hardware like Raspberry Pi 5 (16GB RAM) and a Hailo-8 AI Accelerator (26 TOPS). This enables real-time analysis and complex reasoning directly on the device.
Design, Kinematics, and Tech Stack:
- Hexapod Kinematics: Superior mobility in difficult terrain thanks to six legs and 'Split-Belly Kinematics' for a low center of gravity.
- Neuro-Symbolic Hybrid AI: Combines Edge AI for perception (YOLOv8-Seg on Hailo-8L) and Generative AI for cognition (Phi-3 Medium) for intelligent decision-making.
- Energy Optimization: MPPT Energy Optimization Mode ('Sun Bathing Mode') maximizes autonomous runtime via integrated solar panels and 2S2P Li-ion battery packs.

Core Capabilities
Explore the selected highlights that define the Corax CoLAB ecosystem, from the intelligent GAP Platform to the autonomous GAPbot.
Digital Twin & 4D Visualization
Creates virtual copies for remote monitoring and Digital Risk Mitigation. By simulating new patrol routes and operation flows in the virtual twin before deployment, the risk of field errors is reduced and operating costs decrease. 4D Audit Trail Visualization with 'Time-Slider' for traceability and auditing.
Advanced Swarm Intelligence
Implements CBBA (Consensus-Based Bundle Algorithm), a decentralized task allocation algorithm. The robots exchange information about tasks until a conflict-free assignment is achieved, making the system extremely robust against single points of failure and enabling coordinated work for optimal efficiency.
Neuro-Symbolic Hybrid AI
The core of GAPbot is a groundbreaking neuro-symbolic hybrid AI architecture. It combines industrial Edge AI for ultra-low latency perception (YOLOv8m on Hailo-8 AI Accelerator, 26 TOPS) with Generative AI for complex cognition and autonomous reasoning (Phi-3 Medium).
Hexapod Kinematics & Robust Design
The six-legged hexapod design gives GAPbot superior mobility in difficult terrain. 'Split-Belly Stability' with a low center of gravity minimizes the risk of tipping, and software-controlled 'Fail-Safe Phase Shifting' eliminates current spikes for maximum uptime.
Explainable AI (XAI)
XAI provides human-understandable explanations for predictive AI decisions and autonomous choices (e.g., 'Robot A chose route 3...'). This is a critical legal function for transparency and compliance with the EU AI Act, as well as for demonstrating transparency during audits.
MPPT Energy Optimization ('Sun Bathing Mode')
GAPbot maximizes its autonomous runtime through MPPT Energy Optimization Mode ('Sun Bathing Mode'). The robot can shut down non-essential systems and autonomously charge when the battery level is below 80% and sufficient power is detected, providing extreme endurance in the field.
Compliance-as-Code
Regulatory requirements are hardcoded directly into the system logic via Compliance-as-Code. This includes EUDR (Geometry Validation, TRACES SOAP Bridge), the Data Act (Article 36 with Terminatable blockchain contracts), and CSRD/ESRS (machine-readable iXBRL documents for sustainability KPIs).
Self-Healing Code & MLOps
AI-driven systems with Self-Healing Code identify errors, generate fixes (via Generative AI), and apply them dynamically. An industrial-grade MLOps pipeline manages the entire AI model lifecycle, from data collection and training to secure OTA deployment and continuous operation monitoring (Isolation Forest for anomalies).
Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC)
We future-proof your assets with Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC). A hybrid cryptographic scheme based on NIST-standardized algorithms: Kyber (ML-KEM) for key exchange and Falcon (ML-DSA) for digital signing, effectively protects against 'harvest now, decrypt later' attacks from quantum computers.

Decentralized Innovation
Corax CoLAB is at the forefront of building the next generation of digital infrastructure. We integrate Web3 technologies to guarantee transparency, security, and decentralized ownership in a data-driven future.
Blockchain Technology for Secure Ownership and Transparency
Web3 is the underlying infrastructure for managing digital ownership and transparency in our data-driven future. Corax CoLAB utilizes blockchain technology to create indisputable chains of evidence for raw material origins, which is crucial for facilitating customers' Due Diligence declarations (DDS) according to EUDR.
Strategic Use of Blockchain:
- NFT Marketplace for IP Licensing: We license unique AI models as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), creating a scalable, token-based revenue stream and ensuring traceable distribution of intangible assets.
- Supply Chain & Origin Guarantees: Blockchain creates an indisputable chain of evidence for raw material origins, crucial for facilitating customers' Due Diligence declarations (DDS) according to EUDR.
- Decentralized Autonomy: By decentralizing protocols and incentives for data sharing (e.g., rewarding users who share anonymized environmental data), the risk of a central point of failure is minimized, and the reliability of the overall system is strengthened exponentially.
