HARIBIT turns Beijing Institute of Technology humanoid research toward application labs
Haribit links a full-size commercial robot to the long BHR humanoid program at Beijing Institute of Technology.
HARIBIT is tied to Beijing BIT Huahui Intelligent Technology, a Beijing company built around commercialization of humanoid robotics work from Beijing Institute of Technology. Its Haribit robot is listed with a 170-centimeter height, 55-kilogram weight, and two-hour runtime, with inspection, monitoring, logistics support, education, and emergency-response research inside the public market language.
Beijing Institute of Technology began the BHR humanoid sequence in the early 2000s, with later generations adding walking, more degrees of freedom, facial expression work, table-tennis demonstrations, and multimodal movement research. Company material names HARIBIT chairman Zhang Weimin within that lineage, while the iSoftStone lab announcement also named vice chairman Liu Xiangdong and general manager She Haotian at the signing ceremony.
The announced rescue and firefighting applications are research targets. HARIBIT has not disclosed validated field deployments in those environments.
