About

About MagicBot Gen1

MagicBot Gen1 is a 1.74-metre humanoid with 42 active degrees of freedom, seven-axis arms and articulated hands. Its perception stack combines 3D lidar, two depth cameras and three fisheye cameras, while an eight-core processor and 100-TOPS AI accelerator run navigation, interaction and manipulation workloads. The robot carries up to 7.5 kilograms on one arm and operates for three to five hours.

MagicLab supports autonomous navigation, obstacle avoidance, face recognition, voice interaction and multi-robot coordination. Six-dimensional visual servoing and full-body imitation learning are used for manipulation and motion development. The platform is commercially offered with an SDK, secondary-development access and control through mobile devices or a dedicated controller.
