Walker X represents UBTECH's advancement of the Walker platform toward more sophisticated manipulation and autonomous operation. The robot maintains the human-like proportions characteristic of the Walker series while adding new functionality for service applications.
Walker X's hands were redesigned for greater dexterity, enabling manipulation of a wider variety of objects. The robot can perform tasks like pouring drinks, writing, and handling household objects with reasonable precision with capabilities that target service applications where interaction with human environments is essential.
The perception system combines cameras, depth sensors, and LiDAR for comprehensive environmental understanding. This sensor fusion enables Walker X to navigate autonomously through complex environments, avoid obstacles, and identify objects for manipulation. The AI systems process information in real-time to plan and execute movements simultaneously.
UBTECH positions Walker X for commercial service applications including reception, guidance, and demonstration roles. The robot has been deployed at various exhibitions and corporate events, showcasing capabilities while gathering feedback for continued development. These deployments provide valuable exposure and learning opportunities as the technology matures.
Walker X demonstrates UBTECH's strategy of iterating across multiple market segments. While the Walker S series targets industrial manufacturing, Walker X addresses service and hospitality applications. This diversification allows UBTECH to learn from different use cases while building toward broader humanoid deployment.
