EngineAI T800
EngineAIEngineAI T800 is a full-size bipedal humanoid (1.73 m, 75 kg official) with 29 body DoF excluding dexterous hand, 450 N·m peak joint torque, and a claimed 4-5 hour solid-state battery runtime. It launched on 2025-12-02 from 180,000 yuan with four versions and was demonstrated at CES 2026. In May 2026, EngineAI announced mass production with first batch delivery and a 10,000-unit scalable capability. However, all strong evidence is company-reported. No named customer deployment, autonomous task execution, or independent verification was found. addoobot lists conflicting specs (84.5 kg, 2 h runtime, 1.22 kWh ternary battery) that lower confidence in endurance
HMND 01
Humanoid
HMND 01 Alpha Wheeled is Humanoid's tall 220 cm, 300 kg wheeled humanoid with 29 active DoF, 15 kg bimanual payload, 4 h average runtime and 2 m/s wheeled speed. It uses a 12-DoF hand or 1-DoF gripper and 360-degree RGB plus depth sensors. Evidence includes a Ford POC with company-reported 97% autonomous pick-and-place reliability and 83 picks/hour, a Schaeffler CES bin picking demo described as fully autonomous, and early access partnerships with Schaeffler, Siemens and SAP/Martur Fompak. Bosch is the contract manufacturing partner. No public price exists, and most deployments are POCs or early access rather than full commercial operations
