Industrial Applications
Editorial: supervised mobile-manipulation pilot candidate with documented 3.5 kg arm rating and navigation specifications. Factory acceptance still needs exact chassis/upper-body configuration, stable loaded stops, cycle times and service evidence.
This editorial assessment concerns industrial buyer readiness. It is not an independent performance test.

Manipulation and Perception
Two 7 DOF arms, 600 mm EX tools, 3.5 kg rated per arm,±0.05 mm arm repeatability. Brochure 20 body joints (head 2+arms 14+waist 4), optional 6 DOF hands each, prose 32 upper-limb; June 2026 maker report 28 upper-body. Exact revision/counting conflict remains; no total scalar. Base motion accuracy is separate.
Maker brochure LiDAR navigation,±10 mm centre-to-point positioning, 500 mm minimum passage claim; 1785×500×500 mm nominal size. Headdepth+HDstereo, optional 2 wrist/2 waistcameras and wrist 6-axisF/T. External i9+GPU 41.15 FP32TFLOPS, dataVR/VLA options; onboard compute not fully established.
SDK and Integration
Public SDK includes wheeled-AMR commands; ROS2 default W-P3 Gazebo uses 22 DOF body control, not a verified mapping to 20/28/32 retail counts. Exact version, firmware and optional VLA entitlement required.
| API type | C++ RPC and CycloneDDS joint/state interfaces; edition/firmware entitlement required |
|---|---|
| Languages | C++ native examples; Python ROS2 control examples |
| ROS support | Public ROS2 Foxy/Ubuntu 20.04 and Humble/22.04 workspace; exact sales-SKU mapping unverified |
| Simulation | Gazebo/ros 2_control, URDF, RViz; P2 legged and W-P3 wheeled examples; delivered-model fidelity unverified |
| Offline operation | Local Ethernet RPC/DDS documented; full autonomy, model licence and update egress require verification |
| Teleoperation | VR/MR full-body or segmented motion capture and data toolchain advertised as configuration-dependent options. |
| Software updates | Public source revisions; robot firmware signing, rollback and maintenance term unverified |
| Documentation | Open documentation |
| Code examples | Open repository |
| Integration constraints | Public SDK includes libraries and samples. Root licence not recovered; public access is not unrestricted reuse permission. Internal P2/P3 and 22 DOF simulation labels do not identify every retail configuration. |
Native build Ubuntu 20.04/GCC 9.4; high-level FSM/velocity, low-level debug-state joint/hand/IMU/BMS data and recording. Examples can move hardware. No blanket licence or ATOM-to-LUMO compatibility asserted.
Safety Notes
No signed exact-model EU declaration, complete safety technical file, verified stopping distance/force limits or independent stability validation inspected. Cobot certificates do not establish humanoid conformity. Assess the full application and protective measures.
Compliance and Certificates

Manufacturer’s September guide hosted by Autodiscovery. The specification table distinguishes Max, Trainer and D; Standard is only named in the scope. It requires hoisting during startup, debugging and shutdown. The soft stop enters damping and can allow a fall; the hard stop removes power. Charging voltage is not nominal pack voltage.
