Product overview
Dobot ATOM is a full-size humanoid from Dobot, a Shenzhen robotics company. Dobot presents it as its first full-size humanoid robot, built around dexterous manipulation, straight-knee walking and a Robot Operator Model-1 that Dobot describes as having 100M parameters and 24 Hz end-to-end control (s1, s3).
The base ATOM has 28 upper-body degrees of freedom (s1). The product page also describes an ATOM Max with 41 degrees of freedom, 6-DoF dexterous hands and an Intel RealSense D455 depth camera. It describes an ATOM D data-collection model with dual 7-DoF arms and a 2-DoF head (s1). Dobot says its walking system uses straight knees and cuts energy use by 42% compared with bent-knee walking. The page does not explain how that figure was measured (s1).
Dobot announced mass production and delivered a first batch at a launch event in Nagoya, Japan, on 27 June 2025 (s2). A pre-sale price of CNY 199,000 (about USD 27,530) was reported when pre-sales opened on 18 March 2025 (s5). The current product page offers a product-information form and a sales contact rather than checkout, and it lists no price (s1, s8).
