🤖 Circulus: The Frontier of On-Device Physical AI
Welcome to the official Hugging Face home of Circulus. We are a Physical AI company dedicated to bringing digital intelligence into the tangible world through seamless integration of robotics and edge computing.

🌐 Our Vision: Physical AI for the Real World
Circulus moves beyond "Screen-only AI." We focus on Physical AI, where intelligence is embedded into robotic bodies that can perceive, reason, and act in real-time. To achieve this safely and efficiently, we prioritize On-Device AI.
Zero Latency: Real-time processing for natural human-robot interaction.
Privacy-First: Personal data is processed locally, ensuring maximum security.
True Autonomy: Devices function reliably even in offline environments.

🤝 Strategic Partnership: Intel x Circulus
As a key Intel Physical AI Partner, Circulus maximizes the potential of edge hardware by optimizing state-of-the-art models for Intel’s architecture.

⚡ Technical Synergy
Intel® Core™ Ultra & NPU Optimization: We leverage the latest NPU (Neural Processing Unit) and GPU capabilities to run complex VLMs and LLMs on low-power devices.
OpenVINO™ Integration: Our models are fine-tuned and quantized using the Intel® OpenVINO™ toolkit to ensure peak inference performance.
PiCore (On-device AI Board): Our specialized hardware acts as the "brain" of Physical AI, powered by Intel technology and optimized for multimodal AI workloads.
