ENGINEAI PM01 (family): Specifications and Evidence

Industrial Applications

PM01 spans the original 1380 mm / approximately 40 kg 2024 launch and revised 1400 mm, 24-motor 2026 Education/Navigation configurations. Those generations must not share one mass, depth or developer entitlement. Public SDK material supports the pm01_edu target; manufacturer demos and production statements do not establish unattended factory performance.

This editorial assessment concerns industrial buyer readiness. It is not an independent performance test.

EU regulatory fit	Unknown
Cybersecurity fit	Unknown
Serviceability fit	Unknown
Supply chain fit	Unknown

Manipulation and Perception

Current editions: 24 motor DOF = 12 legs + 10 arms + waist + neck. Historical Business lacks Education neck axis. No published rated arm payload; 1440 mm is full armspan, not single-arm reach.

2026 editions have two head/waist stereo cameras, Orin NX 16 GB and eight-core base per marketing; EDU manual instead says four-core. Navigation adds LiDAR, Education chest screen. Historical Business lacks Orin/screen upgrade.

SDK and Integration

Public native SDK, ROS2 community workspace and RL Lab provide C++/Python interfaces, MuJoCo and pinned Isaac Lab workflows. Native framework retains a precompiled scheduling core. BSD-3-Clause root licences do not establish that all firmware, motor drivers or AI weights are open. Exact targets: pm01_edu, t800 and t800pro; Basic retail T800 is excluded. Simulators must be isolated from physical robot discovery.

API type	Native C++ plugins and ROS2 body/joint interfaces; edition entitlement required
Languages	C++, Python
ROS support	ROS2 Humble / Cyclone DDS with Ubuntu 22.04 in public community workspace; historical ROS Noetic controller is a separate stack
Simulation	MuJoCo joint-bridge / native Sim2Sim; Isaac Sim 5.1 and Isaac Lab 2.3.2 training in current RL repository
Offline operation	October 2026 privacy policy claims local robot data processing; all-feature offline execution and remote-service dependence require verification
Teleoperation	Needs verification
Software updates	Public support entry points exist; exact firmware compatibility, rollback and maintained lifetime unverified
Documentation	Open documentation
Code examples	Open repository
Integration constraints	Use the exact hardware/controller/manual revision and contract. Family openness does not enable software-disabled retail editions.

Safety Notes

Manufacturer warns of high-power drives and dangerous demonstrations. Establish a bounded test area, trained operator, suspension/support during development and validated stop/recovery procedures. No exact-model signed EU declaration, independent protective-stop performance or collaborative safety envelope inspected.

Compliance and Certificates

Standard	Status	Jurisdiction	Evidence
CE marking	Unknown	European Union	No exact-model signed declaration or independent certificate inspected. A listed integration standard is not product certification.
ISO 10218 review required	Unknown	International	No exact-model signed declaration or independent certificate inspected. A listed integration standard is not product certification.

Commercial Readiness

Pricing	Observed November 2, 2026 official PM01 purchase card CNY 188000 without edition identification. Original CNY 88000 promotion ended March 31, 2025. French reseller asks from EUR 27490 ex VAT, on order; exact edition and authorisation not verified.
Price range	Quote-based or unverified
Lead time	Needs verification
Availability regions	China supplier inquiry, Overseas availability subject to configuration and contract
Spare parts	Overseas policy provides replacement-parts delivery; customs exceptions and local repair arrangements apply. No verified European spares warehouse or contracted turnaround.
Warranty	V2.0 policy lists 12 months for main unit/electronics/charger/controller, excluding consumables and unauthorised modifications. Battery and purchased edition scope require contract confirmation. Historical January 2025 PM01 FAQ instead gave Business 8 months / Education 12; do not silently replace an existing contract.
Configuration and pricing basis	Exact edition quotation required
Distributors and service	No exact-model manufacturer authorisation or stocked European repair capability verified.
