UBTECH Robotics

UBTECH develops humanoid and smart service robots, combining hardware, software, service and content for robotics solutions in education, logistics, eldercare, industrial and commercial services.

UBTECH names BYD, Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor, Geely Auto, FAW-Volkswagen Qingdao, Audi FAW, BAIC New Energy, Foxconn, and SF Express as Walker S2 customers, with orders exceeding 800 million yuan (~$112 million) since early 2025, and states it is scaling production capacity to 5,000 units/year by 2026 and 10,000/year by 2027

Walker S2

Walker S2 is UBTECH's next-generation industrial humanoid platform focused on continuous autonomous operation in manufacturing and logistics environments. Its defining capability is autonomous battery replacement, enabling 24/7 operation without human intervention. Mass production and delivery began November 2025, with UBTECH's own materials naming eight industrial customers for the S2 generation specifically — this record corrects an earlier version that had included NIO, whose confirmed humanoid deployment is with the predecessor 'Walker S' generation, not S2.

UBTECH positions Walker C for exhibition hall guided tours, office building reception, service centre Q&A, shopping malls, transport hubs, and public entertainment

Walker C

Walker C is UBTECH's consumer-and-commercial-service humanoid robot platform, most visibly deployed as a multilingual tour guide at the China Pavilion during Expo 2025 Osaka. Despite its 'consumer-oriented' framing in earlier coverage, UBTECH's own positioning is exclusively commercial-service (exhibition halls, reception, guided tours) rather than in-home use — no household deployment has been announced.

Walker C by UBTECH Robotics has 20 degrees of freedom, 163 cm height, 43 kg weight. See full sensor suite, specs, and deployment status.

UBTECH positions Walker X for home assistance, office environments, and public service demonstration scenarios

Walker X

Walker X is UBTECH's advanced humanoid robot platform focused on human-like mobility, interaction, and embodied AI experimentation. Within UBTECH's current lineup it functions as the public-facing showcase and demonstration platform — trade shows, retail demos, hospitality showcases, brand events — distinct from the industrial Walker S2 (enterprise EV-industry deployments) and the reception-focused Walker C.

UBTECH positions Cruzr S2 as an industrial wheeled humanoid for logistics, warehousing, and manufacturing, sharing its dexterous hands and Co-Agent AI system with the Walker S2

Cruzr S2

Cruzr S2 is UBTECH's next-generation commercial service robot platform, positioned by UBTECH specifically as an industrial wheeled humanoid for logistics, warehousing, and manufacturing — distinct from the original Cruzr line, which was a reception/service robot. It shares its dexterous hands and Co-Agent AI system with the industrial Walker S2. Note: UBTECH is separately reported (per a Korean industry MoU announcement, not yet independently confirmed) to also market a 'Cruzr Y1' model for industrial validation projects in South Korea — not confirmed as the same product as Cruzr S2.

AI / Model Approach	Thinker — proprietary embodied AI foundation model powering Walker S2 for autonomous task planning. BrainNet 2.0 — proprietary platform for rapid scenario configuration and industrial system integration. Co-Agent — intelligent agent system providing task planning, intention recognition, tool operation, and autonomous anomaly detection. According to UBTECH and Gasgoo.
Training Methodology	Real-world deployment data from factory operations (automotive, 3C electronics, new energy batteries) fed back into model iteration. Closed-loop model linking core technology, field application, and iterative improvement. According to UBTECH.
Developer Access	Walker platform provides secondary development interface and documentation covering motion control, computer vision, localisation, navigation, task planning, behavioural decision-making, and human-robot interaction. Powered by ROS and Android. Walker S2 SDK documented for secondary development. Yanshee educational robot has a separate developer portal (yandev.ubtrobot.com) with SDK for university and research use. According to UBTECH.
Third-Party Integrations	ROS integration. BYD and NIO as automotive deployment partners.
