The technology and support behind Eliza
The Eliza robot is co-created by the Eliza Wakes Up team and Old World Labs, which was founded in 2012. Wakes Up is based on the open-source architecture of ElizaOS and is integrated with blockchain:
- Token support:
- Collaborated with Solana to launch the Eliza token (ELIZA), which has a market cap of $93 million, and will be used for robot transaction processing, community governance, and unlocking advanced features in the future.
- Part of the development funding comes from the ai16z token, which currently has a market cap of $1.6 billion.
- Collaborative technology: Eliza uses the Unitree H1 robot prototype, which can reach a speed of 3.3 meters per second, setting a world record for the speed of a full-size humanoid robot.
