Associate Professor Dr. Lê Anh Sơn is co-founder of Alpha Asimov Robotics and leads the company’s technology development. His work focuses on autonomous robotics, artificial intelligence, perception, navigation, motion control, and robotic systems engineering.
Associate Professor Dr. Lê Anh Sơn currently serves as a member of the Board of Directors and Deputy CEO of Phenikaa Group; a member of the University Council, Deputy Director, Director, and Director of Innovation at Phenikaa University; Director of Phenikaa X JSC; Director of PHX Education Technology Services and Solutions JSC; and Deputy Head of the Phenikaa Research and Technology Institute.
Alpha Asimov Robotics was founded on 11 November 2021 by Nguyễn Tuấn Anh and Lê Anh Sơn. The company develops autonomous delivery robots and autonomous security patrol robots, with systems designed and developed in Vietnam. Its long term focus is Physical AI.
The robot is designed to drive on roads together with motorcycles, cars, and other vehicles, and can also operate on sidewalks where local rules permit. It suits narrow roads and the mixed traffic common in Southeast Asia.
Camera based perception
The current delivery robot uses cameras as its primary perception sensors and does not use LiDAR. It typically travels at approximately 15 km/h and can reach approximately 25 km/h.
Robotics as a Service
Customers pay according to delivery activity or an agreed service structure instead of buying a robot and building the complete operating system themselves.
Piloted in real environments
Vinhomes Ocean Park 1, Vinhomes Ocean Park 2, Vinhomes Ocean Park 3, Ecopark in Hưng Yên, Phenikaa University, and VinUniversity. The company is pursuing opportunities in the United Arab Emirates and Singapore.
Autonomous security robot
An autonomous security patrol and inspection robot is being piloted at an electrical substation in Vietnam, performing autonomous patrols and collecting inspection information.
Patents and certification
Patent No. 51180 (5 August 2025) on robot control methods and Patent No. 52312 (9 September 2025) on safety in narrow paths. In 2025 the company received science and technology enterprise certification.
