- Hybrid locomotion: walking and wheeled movement for speed and adaptability
- Telescopic legs with independent height adjustment (1.4–1.8 m) for stability
- Five-fingered dexterous hands with tactile skin for complex manipulation
- High-frequency, low-latency SLAM with lidar and IMU for real-time mapping and navigation
- Autonomous folding/unfolding for space-efficient storage
- Multimodal human-robot interaction with advanced perception and prediction
- Assistance functions including elderly support and object delivery
The XiaoWu humanoid robot, developed by Tencent Robotics X, is a next-generation AI-powered service robot designed for real-world human environments, including homes, hospitals, and elderly care facilities.
Unlike traditional humanoid robots, XiaoWu features a revolutionary hybrid wheel-leg mobility system, combining the speed of wheeled robots with the adaptability of legged locomotion. This allows it to move efficiently on flat surfaces while maintaining stability on stairs, uneven terrain, and complex indoor environments.
Standing at an adjustable height of 1.4 to 1.8 meters, XiaoWu is equipped with telescopic legs, multi-finger dexterous hands, and tactile skin, enabling safe and precise interaction with humans and objects.
Powered by advanced AI and multimodal perception, XiaoWu can understand voice commands, recognize gestures, and autonomously navigate using SLAM-based mapping with LiDAR, cameras, and IMU sensors.
Designed especially for elderly care and smart home assistance, XiaoWu can perform tasks such as helping users stand up, delivering items, and interacting naturally with people. Its ability to fold and unfold autonomously makes it practical for real-world deployment and transportation.
XiaoWu represents a major step toward fully integrated humanoid robots that can live and work alongside humans.
