Walker S

Canonical robot record

Overview

Walker S is UBTECH Robotics' industrial humanoid robot, featuring a more human-like configuration aimed at real factory environments. Equipped with a comprehensive perception system, it is built to achieve precise and safe synchronized operations on the factory assembly line, bringing AI and robotics technology directly into manufacturing.

The robot uses force-compliant drive joints and rigid-flexible coupling hybrid structures that let it walk and balance stably on mobile production lines. Its sensing stack fuses visual, audio, and distance sensors, and built-in RGBD vision lets it observe its surroundings, build 3D semantic maps, plan walking routes, and avoid obstacles.

Walker S is part of UBTECH's Walker S series, which the company describes as deployed across the production lines of multiple automotive and industrial partners, including NIO, BYD, and others, where the robots perform assembly, inspection, and handling tasks alongside humans.
