Description
Walker C is a next‑generation humanoid service robot built to welcome, guide, and engage visitors in public spaces, shopping malls, offices, and exhibitions. At 163 cm tall, with 20 degrees of freedom and a friendly design, it delivers a human‑like experience that elevates guest interactions and eases staff workload.
Its mobility is engineered for real environments. It uses autonomous mapping and positioning (U‑SLAM) to plan routes and move safely around people and obstacles, with a stated top speed of up to 6 km/h. The sensor suite includes RGB‑D and 3D cameras plus a high‑precision IMU for stable walking and reliable localization.
Walker C is built for natural interaction. It combines speech understanding and multilingual dialog with clear visual feedback. For connectivity and integrations it offers Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth, along with open interfaces (communication and joint control), so it can tie into existing systems, displays, or bespoke experiences.
Day‑to‑day operation matters as much as the demo: the stated battery life is up to ~2 hours while walking and up to 4 hours when stationary, with about 1.5 hours of charging time. At 43 kg it stands firmly in public areas, and it’s particularly suited for fixed routes, welcoming, queue management, simple Q&A tasks, and voice‑driven presentations.
