Price and availability
from evidence packWhat the RobotEra STAR1 can do
evidence by capability dimensionVideo title claims STAR1 is the first humanoid to skillfully use chopsticks. Directory suggests STAR1 headline figures include 55 DOF and two XHAND1 hands with 12 active DOF each (via L7 match).
No evidence of autonomous task execution for STAR1 in reviewed sources. Founder interview discusses VLA models and teleoperation data collection generally, but no STAR1 autonomous task demo or benchmark found.
TechEBlog reports STAR1 ran at 8 mph for 34 minutes in the Gobi Desert. Video titles confirm participation in 2024 Xi'an Marathon. Directory L7 speed 14.4 km/h is not credited to STAR1 because it was not explicitly matched.
Directory product pages claim advanced AI with object recognition and scene understanding, but no observed STAR1 perception performance or specific sensor data.
No evidence of direct human interaction capabilities beyond participation in a marathon event (video title) and generic healthcare application claims on directory pages.
A single media-reported run of 34 minutes at 8 mph is the only endurance data. No rated runtime, failure rate, or long-term reliability evidence.
Human-sized at 171 cm, 65 kg; ran outdoors in the Gobi Desert wearing sneakers (media report). No safety certification or human-proximity safety evidence.
What is proven
source-backed highlights- TechEBlog report of 8 mph for 34 minutes in Gobi Desert.

- No independent verification or video transcript for demos.
- No specific customer deployment or delivery count for STAR1.
- No public price, battery, payload, or autonomy evidence.
