Highlanders Inc.

Building the robot and its control stack

Highlanders develops the N humanoid and HLQ quadruped robot families. The University of Tokyo spinout works across mechanical design, electrical systems, motion control and AI software, building an integrated robotics platform.

The company targets manufacturing, logistics, infrastructure and research applications. Its September 2026 partnership with Kaga Electronics provides a route to industrial customers and distribution for future mass-produced robots; the announcement describes those production and sales plans as forthcoming.
