Scoped entry: covers only Toyota Research Institute's robotics AI research program (Diffusion Policy, Large Behavior Models, manipulation); parent-wide Toyota business data is not tracked.

Toyota Research Institute (TRI) is a standalone R&D organization funded by Toyota, producing foundational robotics AI: Diffusion Policy (2023), now the leading visuomotor policy learning method, outperforming prior state-of-the-art by 46.9% across 12 benchmarks. Large Behavior Models scale diffusion-policy architectures for multitask manipulation. TRI collaborates with Boston Dynamics on Atlas behavioral research, and its Punyo soft-body robot advances whole-body manipulation. TRI's outputs are licensed/shared as open research influencing commercial humanoid and manipulation companies globally.
