An applied robotics institution, based in Visakhapatnam.
The Indian School of Space and Robotics gives Indian colleges, researchers and companies practical access to Physical AI: real humanoid hardware, the engineers to run it, and programmes built around it.

The Visakhapatnam hub.
Our ground-floor hub on Shivaji Park Road, SBI Colony, hosts weekend cohorts, demos and lab sessions. Workshop teams travel from here to colleges across South India.
An open testing campus.
The next phase is a larger campus in Visakhapatnam built for testing, not just teaching. Open and netted zones sized to each robot’s safety needs, and a deliberately small permanent building.
- Humanoid test bays with spectator space for cohorts
- Cobot and industrial-arm cells
- Netted UAV flight cage
- Academic block and compute hub
