Open-source research humanoid with 40 DOF and 12 DOF dexterous hands. Features stair climbing, fall recovery, and obstacle avoidance capabilities.
Qinglong from the National Local Joint Humanoid Robot Innovation Center represents China's premier open-source humanoid platform, unveiled at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference 2024 in Shanghai. As China's first full-sized general-purpose humanoid robot model with openly released technologies, Qinglong aims to catalyze a domestic humanoid ecosystem.
Standing 185 cm tall and weighing 80 kg, Qinglong features 43 active degrees of freedom with highly bionic torso and anthropomorphic motion control. Maximum joint peak torque reaches 400 N·m, while 400 TOPS of computational power handles perception, planning, and control. Dexterous human-like hands enable precise manipulation tasks.
The OpenLoong open-source project, operated by Humanoid Robotics (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., the Shanghai Humanoid Robotics Manufacturing Innovation Center, and the OpenAtom Foundation, provides a humanoid control framework based on Model Predictive Control (MPC) and Whole-Body Control (WBC). The GitHub repository includes walking, jumping, and blind obstacle stepping examples running on the MuJoCo simulation engine.
Qinglong development is backed by one billion RMB ($140 million) in registered capital, with designation as a National Joint Innovation Center by China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The ambitious vision includes releasing a new zodiac-animal-named humanoid model annually and training 1,000 humanoid robots simultaneously by 2027. This government-backed, open-source approach aims to establish China's humanoid robot innovation community on a global scale.
