Product Description
With improved hand-eye coordination and autonomous navigation, Walker, a humanoid service robot by UBTECH Robotics, is able to safely climb stairs and balance on one leg. UBTECH has since branched out to design an industrial version of Walker as well. Known as Walker S, this newer robot displays more sound balance, perception and motor skills to handle industrial tasks like tightening bolts, assembling parts and sorting products. These improvements come as UBTECH prepares to launch a new wave of humanoid robots.
Mobility & Structure
| Attribute | Value | Description | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Locomotion Type | N/A | Bipedal, wheeled-hybrid, etc. | Defines interaction envelope |
| Degrees of Freedom (DOF) | N/A | # of controllable joints | Directly tied to dexterity & versatility |
| Max Walk Speed | N/A | m/s | Static, dynamic balancing |
Upper Body & Manipulation
| Attribute | Value | Description | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Arm DOF | N/A | Each arm's axis count | Higher = more natural movement |
| Hand Dexterity | N/A | Pinch / 3-finger / 5-finger | Newtons |
| Grip Feedback | N/A | Force, pressure, tactile sensors | Enables delicate handling and learning |
Perception
| Attribute | Value | Description | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visual Sensors (Eyes) | N/A | RGB / Depth / IR / LiDAR | Navigation, facial recognition, object tracking |
| Eye DOF / Movement | N/A | Can they move? (Y/N, axis count) | Naturalistic interaction & gaze tracking |
| Audio Sensors (Ears) | N/A | # of mics + array type | Needed for voice commands, sound source localization |
| Face Display / Actuators | N/A | LED screen / moving eyebrows / static | Social communication, emotional response |
| Face Expressiveness | N/A | None / Basic / Realistic | Higher = better interaction in social spaces |
Interfaces
| Attribute | Value | Description | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Voice Recognition | N/A | NLP model + languages supported | Enables natural user interaction |
| Speech Output | N/A | TTS engine used + quality level | Critical for public/commercial use |
| Touch UI / Screen | N/A | Present or not | Optional fallback interaction |
| Remote Control | N/A | Web / App / Joystick | Needed for manual override or remote training |
