Current evidence comparison for 1X EVE and Honda ASIMO.
1X EVE
1X Technologies
1X EVE is a wheeled humanoid from 1X Technologies (Norway/US) with a self-balancing wheeled base, 188 cm, 87 kg, 15 kg payload, 4 m/s top speed, and 6-hour official runtime. It is designed for security, logistics, and embodied AI data collection, with 25 DoF, 1-DoF grippers, HDR cameras, and shared autonomy. The strongest evidence is an Inverse-reported 2024 multi-robot voice-command office-tidying demo and directory claims of unnamed customer deployments since 2022; the weakest areas are no named customer metrics, no price, conflicting specs, and no independent autonomy verification. EVE is older than 1X's NEO and current availability is unclear
Honda ASIMO
Honda
Honda ASIMO is a retired bipedal research humanoid, first unveiled in 2000 and final active in 2022. The 2011 final version is reported as 130 cm tall, with 57 DoF, walking at 2.7 km/h and running at 9 km/h, powered by a 51.8V lithium-ion battery. Weight is conflicting at 54 kg or 48 kg. ASIMO demonstrated walking, running, hopping, stair climbing, push recovery, face/voice recognition, and serving drinks, but all evidence is from secondary sources or video titles; no official Honda spec sheet, independent benchmark, or commercial deployment is available. It was never sold, only leased to museums and events, and is not currently purchasable
