Canonical robot record
Overview
Adam is a full-size, general-purpose humanoid robot developed by the Beijing-based company PNDbotics. It is designed as a full-body robotic system that combines a modular hardware architecture with an intelligent algorithm platform, giving it motion flexibility and environmental perception intended for complex tasks in unstructured environments.
The robot is built around PNDbotics' own quasi-direct-drive, force-controlled flexible actuators, coordinated by a self-developed Robot Control Unit alongside off-the-shelf compute and depth-vision sensing. A fusion of whole-body control and model-predictive control governs balance and trajectory tracking under dynamic disturbances.
Adam is documented as a family of variants (Lite, Standard, SP and Pro) that scale up in degrees of freedom and onboard AI and perception capability, and is presented for uses spanning scientific research, industrial automation testing, medical assistance and service robotics.
RoboZaps maintains this record as part of its canonical robotics database. Specs are source-verified where linked; the record compares public facts across manufacturers rather than representing a single robot maker.

Record changelog
- Height: 175 cm changed to 167 cm · Jul 10, 2026
record-surgery-4 verification (corrected): All Adam full-body variants are 1.67 m; 175 cm matches no variant and contradicts the record's own core height_mm=1670.
- Degrees of Freedom: 49 changed to 29 · Jul 10, 2026
record-surgery-4 verification (corrected): No Adam variant has 49 DoF (Lite 25 / Standard 29 / SP 41 / Pro 43; press cites 'up to 44' full-body). Adam Standard = 29 DoF.
- Sensors: RGB cameras, depth sensors, force-torque sensors changed to Intel RealSense D455 depth camera · Jul 10, 2026
record-surgery-4 verification (corrected): Adam Standard's documented sensor is an Intel RealSense D455 depth camera. Dedicated force-torque sensors are not documented; force control comes from quasi-
- Communication: WiFi, Ethernet changed to Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.0 · Jul 10, 2026
record-surgery-4 verification (corrected): Manufacturer wiki lists Wi-Fi 6 + Bluetooth 5.0 for all Adam variants; Ethernet not documented as a headline interface.
- Weight: 60-63 kg changed to 61 kg · Jul 10, 2026
record-surgery-4 verification (corrected): 60-63 kg is the family range (Lite 60 / Standard 61 / SP 62 / Pro 63); for the Adam Standard record the correct single value is 61 kg.
