About Hobbs W1

Hobbs is a service-oriented humanoid from Beijing-based Noetix Robotics. The platform focuses on approachability and human-robot interaction rather than heavy industrial tasks.

The standard Hobbs model is designed for education and light service, standing 120-140 cm tall. The more advanced 'Hobbs W1', unveiled in late 2025, is a sophisticated commercial service robot standing 168 cm tall. It features a bionic, expressive face and a mobile base, designed for roles like reception and customer guidance.

Hobbs W1 is powered by dual onboard GPUs enabling real-time emotion recognition and natural language dialogue without constant cloud reliance. Its friendly aesthetic and focus on social intelligence make it suitable for public-facing environments in retail, hospitality, and corporate offices.
