Description

Cinnamon 1 is a next-generation humanoid robot designed to support humans in work environments where speed, safety, and intuitive control matter most. The robot walks on two legs and mimics human movements to perform tasks that are often repetitive or risky for people. Its design focuses on practical use rather than serving as a laboratory prototype, hinting at a future where robots and humans share daily tasks. 

Rather than relying on spoken commands, Cinnamon 1 introduces a unique Silent Gesture Control system. Workers can use simple hand and finger gestures to tell the robot what to do. This lets people guide the robot without loud speech or voice interfaces, which can struggle in noisy environments. Such intuitive control makes Cinnamon 1 suitable for busy construction sites or noisy factory floors.
