Current evidence comparison for Booster K1 and Booster T2.
Booster K1
Booster Robotics
Booster K1 is a compact (95 cm, 19.5 kg) bipedal humanoid from Booster Robotics (China), positioned as an entry-level research/education platform with 22 DoF, up to 200 TOPS compute, stereo depth camera, voice interaction, and official walking speed 2 m/s. It is purchasable from distributors from about $4,999 (limited launch offer) to €9,000 or $11,998 depending on region. Its strongest validation is being the platform of the winning team in RoboCup 2025 KidSize league. However, most capability claims (autonomous soccer, balance recovery, durability) are company-asserted without independent verification, and video demos lack transcripts. No hand dexterity, payload, or per-model shipment data is available
Booster T2
Booster Robotics
Booster T2 is a purchasable 1.4 m, ~42 kg bipedal humanoid development platform from Booster Robotics, with 31 body DoF, 10 kg dual-arm payload, 140 Nm peak torque, 2 hours walking runtime, 48 V 10 Ah battery, and optional Jetson Thor T5000 2,070 TFLOPS compute. Official sources claim 3 m/s walking while resellers and press claim 2 m/s. A media-described demo video shows walking, fall recovery, and flips, but teleoperation status is not disclosed. The robot is sold by Generation Robots from €22,500 excl VAT and by US resellers from US$32,999; no named customer deployment or independent autonomy verification was found
