Overview
ENGINEAI T800 is a full-size humanoid robot platform focused on dynamic locomotion, embodied AI research, and industrial applications. It features high-DOF architecture and advanced bipedal mobility.
The commercial T800 stands 173 cm tall and weighs 75 kg, per EngineAI's official product page. It has 29 degrees of freedom excluding the dexterous hands; the hands add 7 DoF each with a 5 kg payload capacity and integrated tactile sensing. The chassis is aviation-grade magnesium-aluminum alloy. Leg joints have an active cooling system for sustained high-load operation. Peak joint torque is 450 N·m with an instantaneous peak power of 14,000 W, per EngineAI's launch materials. The battery is solid-state. Top walking speed is 3 m/s.
Compute on the base model is Intel N97. The Pro and Max editions use NVIDIA Jetson Thor delivering 2,000 TOPS. The perception suite includes 360° omnidirectional LiDAR and Intel RealSense D415/D435i depth cameras for millisecond-level environmental modelling, per EngineAI. Software is fully in-house developed. The open-source edition provides SDK access and is compatible with ROS.
EngineAI unveiled the T800 in December 2025 via a martial arts demonstration video that generated widespread CGI accusations. EngineAI responded by releasing unedited behind-the-scenes footage and CEO Zhao Tongyang posted video of the robot delivering a padded kick to his chest. The robot appeared at CES 2026. Pricing runs from $40,500 (Basic) to $80,800 (Max) across four tiers, per EngineAI's official product page. Shipments were targeted from June 2026. No independently verified task benchmarks or confirmed commercial deployments have been published as of mid-2026.
