09 April 2024

What Are Disney’s BDX Droids?

Disney Imagineering has created small, highly advanced BDX droids that roam freely around Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. These adorable little robots are not just cute props — they are sophisticated, AI-powered machines that actively engage with guests.

How Advanced AI Powers These Droids

The BDX droids use cutting-edge artificial intelligence to navigate uneven terrain, recognize faces, respond to voice commands, and interact playfully with guests in real time. Their stable walking on unpredictable surfaces showcases some of the most impressive AI algorithms for stable walking in robotics today.

Why These Droids Feel So Real

Unlike traditional fixed animatronics, these droids are fully mobile and autonomous. Guests can walk with them, talk to them, and watch them react naturally — creating truly magical, immersive Star Wars moments.

What This Means for the Future of Theme Parks

Disney’s BDX droids represent the next big step in theme park entertainment — the powerful combination of advanced robotics and real-time artificial intelligence.
