At the 2024 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC), the "KUAVO" humanoid robot launched by Leju Company, as China's first open-source humanoid robot with HarmonyOS operating system, has attracted widespread attention from the global science and technology community. This event not only marks China's independent innovation capability in the field of AI, but also heralds a new era in the application of humanoid robot technology.
Technological innovation: all-round visual perception and multi-terrain adaptation
The "Kuafu" robot is equipped with HUAWEI CLOUD's Pangu embodied intelligent model, which gives it the ability to perceive and adapt to multiple terrains. The robot's all-round visual perception system is capable of providing 360-degree environmental perception, while its multi-terrain adaptability allows it to walk stably in complex ground conditions and even have the ability to jump.
Performance parameters: the industry benchmark for highly dynamic humanoid robots
The performance parameters of the "Kwa Pao" robot are equally impressive. It weighs about 45 kg, has 26 degrees of freedom, can reach a pace of up to 4.6 km/h, and jumps in quick succession at a height of more than 20 cm. The integrated joint technology developed by Leju provides a peak torque of more than 300 Nm, and the torque density reaches more than 200 Nm/kg, which fully demonstrates the strong performance of "Kuafu" in terms of high dynamics, high explosion and high precision.

Mass production and market: a positive sign for the prospect of commercialization
According to the on-site personnel of the conference, the "Kuafu" robot has begun mass production, and the price is estimated to be between 60-800,000 yuan. This price range shows the potential commercial competitiveness of a humanoid robot that integrates so many advanced technologies. With the further maturity of technology and the reduction of costs, it is expected that "Kuafu" will have a broader market application space in the future.
Application scenarios: Broad application potential across fields
The application scenarios of the "Kuafu" robot are extremely wide, from industrial automation to home services, from education and scientific research to medical assistance, it can play an important role. Leju has reached cooperation with a number of enterprises and research institutions to apply the "Kuafu" robot to special rescue, high-risk operations and other scenarios, and carry out in-depth cooperation in the field of education and scientific research to promote the further development of humanoid robot technology.
The unveiling of the "Kuafu" robot at WAIC 2024 is not only a demonstration of Leju's technological innovation, but also a reflection of China's strength in the global AI field. With the continuous progress of AI technology and the continuous expansion of application scenarios, we have reason to believe that "Kuafu" will open a new chapter in the application of humanoid robot technology and bring more possibilities and convenience to human society.
In the future, with the further development of humanoid robot technology and the reduction of costs, they will gradually enter thousands of households and become an indispensable part of our lives. The success of "Kuafu" will also inspire more enterprises and research institutions to devote themselves to this field full of potential and jointly promote the development and application of humanoid robot technology. With the deep integration of the open-source HarmonyOS operating system, the "Kuafu" robot is expected to accelerate the process of commercialization and realize a wide range of applications in practical scenarios.
