HMND 01 vs RobotEra L7

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

RobotEra L7 is a 171 cm, 65 kg full-size bipedal humanoid with 55 DoF and XHAND1 12-DoF hands, claimed to run the ERA-42 VLA model. It has demonstrated impressive whole-body mobility in media-described videos: 360-degree spins, breakdancing, and a sword dance with leaps and stable landings, plus fine manipulation such as screw-driving, paper towel tearing, and a CES 2026 massage title. However, no L7 demo discloses autonomy, no price or runtime is published, and no named L7 customer deployment exists. Commercial claims of 200 robots shipped are company-wide. Overall, strong kinematic demos but unproven autonomy and accessibility
