Summary:

 

Maker H01 is the first humanoid robot from GigaAI, a Chinese robotics startup backed by Huawei Hubble Investment. Launched in late 2025, it’s positioned as a Physical AGI platform, designed to bridge large AI models with embodied robotics. Unlike traditional bipedal humanoids, H01 uses wheeled mobility for stability and speed, while retaining humanlike dual-arm dexterity.  

 

Editorial:

 

Maker H01 embodies GigaAI’s vision of “model-to-body convergence”—turning large language and vision models into real-world embodied intelligence. Its dual 7DOF bionic arms can lift up to 5 kg payloads, adaptable with grippers or dexterous hands. The robot integrates 9 onboard cameras and a 360° LiDAR system, enabling rich perception for navigation and manipulation.  

 

With 28 total DOF, a vertical reach of 0–2 meters, and modular end-effectors, H01 is designed for industrial, service, and research applications. GigaAI emphasizes that this robot is not just hardware—it’s a native AGI platform, intended to accelerate the “ChatGPT moment” for the physical world.
