Overview

A consumer-grade programmable hexapod with an app-store model, where developers wrote Skills in the MIND SDK and shared them to other owners. Its compact, backpack-sized body could climb stairs and ran about 4 hours per charge per Vincross. Vincross raised a Lenovo-led round in 2019 and launched a Mind developer kit. By September 2026 the vincross.com domain no longer resolved, so HEXA is no longer sold through its maker.
