Bosun · Umwelt
An embodied AI companion concept exploring unusual sensors, persistent memory, and paired devices that connect experiences between two people.
Made for
For people curious about embodied intelligence, researchers exploring perception, and collaborators who want to help turn an unusual relationship with the physical world into a thoughtful product.
Embodied perception
Sensor choices shape the character of the research. The goal is an intelligence situated in a physical environment, with its own perspective on what happens there.
Start here
The hardware research starts with sensing: what a companion can notice, and how those signals might reveal something a person would otherwise miss.
Bosun is in hardware research, with a companion device still to come. Explore the sensing direction and working drawings, or talk with us about the next stage of the research.

How it works and what’s inside
Made for
For people curious about embodied intelligence, researchers exploring perception, and collaborators who want to help turn an unusual relationship with the physical world into a thoughtful product.
What would an AI notice if its senses were different from ours? Bosun · Umwelt explores that question through an embodied companion: unusual sensors, persistent memory, and the possibility of a paired twin connecting its experiences with someone you love.
How it works
Workflow
Begin with a different view
The hardware research starts with sensing: what a companion can notice, and how those signals might reveal something a person would otherwise miss.
Connect moments over time
The memory direction links what the companion notices across experiences, exploring continuity rather than treating every observation as an isolated exchange.
Imagine a shared thread
The paired-twin concept asks how two companions might create a meaningful connection between people, while keeping the physical experience central.

Features
Embodied perception
Sensor choices shape the character of the research. The goal is an intelligence situated in a physical environment, with its own perspective on what happens there.
Memory as continuity
Persistent memory is part of the product direction: connecting observations into an ongoing experience instead of a sequence of disconnected prompts.
Visible hardware thinking
Enclosure projections and wiring diagrams make the engineering tangible, showing how the sensing and physical design are being considered together.
