About

About 4NE1 Gen 4

4NE1 Gen 4 is NEURA Robotics’ full-size humanoid robot for learning and carrying out physical work alongside people. It has a slimmer, black textile-covered body and upgraded hands. NEURA says it is 20% lighter than its predecessor. Its Smart Limbs incorporate local reflexes, allowing individual limbs to respond to their surroundings, while Neuron AI combines vision, touch, force, sound and robot-state inputs to guide movement.

Introduced in October 2026, Gen 4 is operating at the TUM RoboGym in Munich and other NEURA Gyms, where companies can train tasks with the robot. Training combines real-world robot experience, human demonstrations and simulation; the Neuraverse connects the resulting skills across robots. NEURA is preparing Gen 4 for series production.
