The funds raised will be used to expand the engineering team and collaborate with more manufacturers to apply OM1 and FABRIC to scenarios such as autonomous driving, smart manufacturing, and elder care.

OpenMind was founded by Stanford University professor Jan Liphardt and is dedicated to building a universal operating system and decentralized collaboration network for intelligent machines, enabling robots from different manufacturers and of various forms to securely share information and work together globally. Its core products include the OM1 operating system and the FABRIC collaboration protocol: the former equips various robots with perception, adaptation, and action capabilities, while the latter provides cross-platform identity authentication and secure collaboration.
