Kyber Labs
Brooklyn, New York robotics startup building AI-controlled, mechanically compliant dexterous robot hands for assembly and manipulation tasks.
Kyber Labs is a robotics hardware company headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, operating out of the Newlab facility. The company designs manipulation hardware built specifically for AI-based control rather than adapting existing industrial robot arms and grippers.
Its core product line is a robotic hand designed for mechanical compliance and dexterity, aimed at delicate assembly and manipulation tasks in unstructured environments, alongside a bimanual robotic manipulation platform paired with software that converts high-level commands into physical actions. The company positions the hardware for embodied-AI data collection and training as well as for manufacturing and assembly applications.
Kyber Labs was cofounded by Tyler Habowski, who worked on reusability systems for SpaceX's Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy, and Starship programs before working as a machine learning engineer at Machina Labs, and Yonatan Robbins, an industrial designer who previously led mechanical design at electric motorcycle maker Tarform. Robotics research scientist Julian Viereck, who holds a robotics PhD from New York University and previously worked at Amazon, Google X, and CERN, is also part of the team. The company is backed by Cortical Ventures, Starburst Ventures, Elliptic Ventures, Earthrise Ventures, Fundomo, Heuristic Capital, and angel investor Trevor Blackwell.
