According to Terminus Group, the designer and manufacturer of Opti, and the Official Premier Partner of Expo 2020 Dubai, it took the company six months to transform Opti from an animation to a real-life walking robot. Different from other robots, AI-powered Opti is equipped with multiple sensors that would help the robot with accurate positioning, and new generation chasis that enables the robot to 'walk' on floors of all possible conditions, making it possible for the complicated dance moves. Opti was also strictly tested under ultra-hot weather condition to ensure its operations with extreme heat.
