Robot systems company Sarcos Robotics has raised $30m to develop devices that augment, rather than replace, human workers in the industrial, public safety and military sectors. Leveraging more than 25 years of research and development, Sarcos makes revolutionary robotics products designed to save lives, reduce injury and improve productivity, including the Guardian S, Guardian GT, and Guardian XO. The series B funding was led by DIG Investment and Alex Brown, and backed by earlier investors Caterpillar Ventures, Cottonwood Technology Fund, GE Ventures, Microsoft, Schlumberger and Sarcos CEO Ben Wolff. “Robots are going to be a huge part of our future,” said Brown. It will also help the commercial launch of its industrial exoskeleton Guardian XO range.
