Summary:
The Da Sheng D12 is a full‑size humanoid robot developed by 58 Intelligent Technology (also known as WuBa Intelligent Tech), a Chinese robotics firm best known for its military Robowolf quadrupeds. In December 2025, the company secured a $5.5 million industrial deployment contract for the D12 — one of China’s largest commercial humanoid robot orders to date.
The D12 is designed for industrial manufacturing, public safety, and service scenarios, combining a 175‑cm humanoid form with multimodal perception, large‑language‑model integration, and adaptive terrain handling.
Editorial:
The Da Sheng D12 marks a major shift in China’s humanoid robotics landscape:
from flashy demos to real industrial deployment.
58 Intelligent Technology — previously known for military robotics — is now pushing humanoids into factories, logistics centers, and public‑safety environments. The D12 is engineered not just for balance and locomotion, but for human‑like interaction, using facial expressions, body language, and conversational AI to operate in mixed human‑robot environments.
Chinese state media describes the D12 contract as one of the country’s largest industrial humanoid deployments, signaling that humanoids are moving from prototypes to scaled commercial use.
The company recently raised $69 million to accelerate production of both quadrupeds and humanoids, positioning the D12 as a flagship model in China’s rapidly expanding embodied‑AI ecosystem.
