Canonical robot record
Overview
HMND 01 is the first humanoid robot from Humanoid, a UK-based AI and robotics startup operating as SKL Robotics and founded by Artem Sokolov. It is designed as a general-purpose labour-automation unit intended to work alongside people in industrial settings such as warehouses, logistics hubs, and retail facilities.
The robot is built on a modular hardware and software design, letting customers combine different upper-body, lower-body, and end-effector configurations to fit a given task and reduce total cost of ownership. Its end-effectors can be swapped between a multi-fingered dexterous hand and a parallel gripper depending on the manipulation required.
HMND 01 is powered by the company's KinetIQ framework, which combines vision-language and vision-language-action models for end-to-end reasoning, running on NVIDIA-based onboard processing. The Alpha Bipedal version is a development and testing unit, with the company describing a later Beta version on its roadmap.
