What the EngineAI PM01 can do

evidence by capability dimension
Manipulation
Tier 0

No manipulation demos, hand specifications, or grasping evidence found. PM01 is presented as a research platform for motion demos rather than fine manipulation.

Autonomy
Tier 0

No autonomous task execution evidence found. Motion demos and video titles do not disclose autonomy. FIRGELLI review rates autonomy confidence low to medium and says demos are motion demos, not independent task studies.

Mobility
Tier 2 · demo

Official specs list 2 m/s walking speed and 320-degree waist rotation. Video titles claim dancing and front flipping demonstrations. Official introduction video also exists.

Perception
Tier 0

No sensors or perception algorithms disclosed. Compute is x86 plus NVIDIA Jetson Orin.

Human interaction
Tier 1 · spec

The Robot Report describes a control interface inspired by Iron Man with a core screen integrating various functions to issue commands and access information.

Reliability
Tier 0

No runtime, battery, payload, failure rate, or reliability data found.

Human-environment fit
Tier 1 · spec

PM01 is compact at 1.38 m and about 40 kg, described as lightweight, highly dynamic, and open. It is intended for labs and demos.

What is proven

source-backed highlights
  • Official specs from The Robot Report and EngineAI product page.
  • Official introduction video exists.
  • Third-party video titles suggest dancing and front flip demos.
  • Accessible/open-platform positioning for labs.

Caveats

read before you trust a demo
  • No official PM01 price found. Third-party YouTube title says $13,700; The Robot Report's 88,000 yuan price refers to SE01, not...
  • No payload, runtime, battery, hand or sensor disclosure.
  • No autonomous task execution or manipulation evidence.

About the EngineAI PM01

summary from sourced evidence

EngineAI PM01 is a compact Chinese bipedal research humanoid listed as 1.38 m, about 40 kg, 24 DOF, 2 m/s, with 320-degree waist rotation and a third-party video title claiming a front flip. Official sources confirm the platform and an official introduction video, but no payload, runtime, battery, hands, sensors, autonomy task execution, manipulation, or named customer deployments have been found. Price is uncertain: a third-party video title says $13,700, while a commonly cited 88,000 yuan launch price belongs to SE01, not PM01. Treat as a purchasable motion/research platform with low confidence on reliability and commercial readiness
