GIFTED is now available to watch. KAI has come！ Welcome to explore our latest launch and meet KAI built for the future of embodied intelligence.

Just seven months after our company was founded, this was how KAI was walking at only one month old.

It's KAI walking routine. This video captures a stage in KAI's journey toward human society. Its gait may not be perfect yet, but KAI can already achieve long-duration, omnidirectional, continuous walking. We believe that for humanoid robots to enter the home, long-duration omnidirectional walking is an important step. This is not the final result, but an important part of the process.

@CyberRobooo Thanks for following along.！ We just published a new video featuring behind-the-scenes footage of KAI's walking progress.

Holy… is this really not a human? That was my reaction too,I could hardly believe it. This is an ultra-humanlike humanoid robot. 1.73 m tall, 70 kg, with 115 degrees of freedom across the body,36 in the hands alone,and full-body tactile skin. … This is KAI, the first humanoid robot from Shenzhen-based KinetixAI. It’s essentially a 1:1 human replica，except it has no face. I wonder if it could use Aheadform’s M1? that will be interesting. Powered by its KAI World Model and trained on large-scale Engocentric data, it can fold clothes, use tools, handle deliveries and takeout, and assist with childcare,covering a wide range of household tasks. Ok, expectations for Tesla Optimus v3 have been raised once again.

مستوى الواقعية في روبوتات الصين وصل لمرحلة مرعبة! الكل مصدوم من روبوت (KAI) الجديد من شركة KinetixAI أول ما تشوفه بتحلف إنه إنسان لابس قناع تخيل روبوت بـ 115 درجة حركة (36 منها في اليدين بس)، ومغطى بـ جلد يستشعر اللمس بالكامل الروبوت تدرب على نماذج ذكاء اصطناعي تخليه يطوي الملابس، يستخدم الأدوات، يستلم طلباتك، وحتى يساعد في رعاية الأطفال إيلون ماسك وروبوت تسلا (Optimus v3) صاروا في موقف محرج جداً

Hi, I’m KAI. And yes — it introduced itself on stage. 🤖 Kinetix AI just launched its full-size humanoid robot KAI at its latest event. Not with a keynote. But with two robots talking to each other. KAI is built around three things: understanding the world, learning from the world, and interacting with the world. At the core is its World Model, designed to predict how environments change, not just react to them. Then comes a first-person dataset, collected through a head-mounted system with eight cameras — capturing how humans see, move, and interact in real scenarios. And finally, a three-stage training pipeline that turns those experiences into usable skills. The body matches the idea. KAI stands 173 cm, 70 kg, with 115 degrees of freedom across the body. Each hand has 36 degrees of freedom, allowing both precise manipulation and compliant contact. It also carries a full-body tactile system with 18,000 touch points, sensitive enough to detect light contact. On stage, it didn’t just move. It explained itself.

@TheHumanoidHub Thank you for your interest in our company.

SMASH enables the first outdoor humanoid ping-pong system on the Unitree G1 using pure egocentric vision alone. The team built a unified perception pipeline (Adaptive EKF + physics-based predictor + planner). They first validated and tuned the full stack using clean data from an external MoCap system, then seamlessly switched to a dual onboard camera setup for real-world deployment without any external sensors. - Motion-VAE augments mocap data for broad workspace coverage - Task-conditioned motion matching + RL for natural and agile whole-body skills (smashes, low-crouching shots, lateral movements) - Robust >50 Hz onboard perception Kinetix AI is a key collaborator on the paper.

This isn’t a human… it’s KAI. 🤯 An ultra-humanlike robot from KinetixAI: • 1.73 m, 70 kg • 115 DOF (36 in hands) • Full-body tactile skin Folds clothes, uses tools, handles deliveries—even childcare. Follow @AInewshuborg for more AI breakthroughs

A pair of humanoid robots from the Shenzhen startup KinetixAI awkwardly introduce themselves to the world. The startup was launched by former core R&D team members from XPeng, who contributed to the EV maker's flagship Iron humanoid robot. Its roster also includes academic supervisors from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Jia Tong University. Kinetix is making some pretty big claims about its flagship humanoid KAI. The full-sized humanoid has a reported 115 degrees of freedom (DoF) across its body for a wide range of motion. Its body is covered with tactile skin that's described as having more than 18,000 sensing points. KAI's hands are especially advanced, boasting 36 DoF. This is more than any robotic hand entering the market and even exceeds the moving joints of human hands, which typically have 27 DoF. It's also one of the first humanoid robots powered by a semi-solid-state battery (alongside Iron and EngineAI's T800). According to Kinetix, KAI runs on its self-developed world model. The startup is pitching the humanoid as a general-purpose helper to compete with humanoids from Tesla, Figure AI, and 1X Technologies. They're targeting pricing below $40,000 for basic models.

@chris_j_paxton More updates will be shared soon.😼

One of the more humanlike home-assistant humanoids we have seen yet, with a really striking glossy face (wonder how well that works)

@_TALEBM_ Thanks for your interest. More updates are coming soon.

@CyberRobooo Thanks for your interest. More updates are coming soon.

@XRoboHub Thank you for following our journey！More to come soon.

@CyberRobooo @mikekalilmfg Which is X account of KinetixAI??

Major Announcement!!! Kai and HKU MMLab proudly unveil SMASH, the world’s first highly dynamic humanoid robot table tennis system capable of autonomous perception in outdoor environments. Table tennis is widely regarded as one of the most challenging sports for robots to master. The ball travels at incredible speed, the spin changes constantly, and the landing point is highly unpredictable—leaving only milliseconds to react. With no motion-capture system required, SMASH relies entirely on onboard sensors to achieve stable, full-body human-robot interaction in real outdoor environments. Embodied intelligence has officially stepped out of the lab. 🔗mmlab.hk/Smash/ #Humanoid #TableTennis #RobotTableTennis #Sports #Technology #Kai #HKUMMLab #Algorithms #SMASH
