Product overview
About Holiday Robotics FRIDAY
FRIDAY is a wheeled humanoid robot from Holiday Robotics, a physical-AI startup in Seoul. It is designed for repetitive industrial work, with a manipulation-focused upper body on a mobile base. The current product page specifies a height of 176 cm, a weight of 125 kg, 64 total degrees of freedom and 20 degrees of freedom in each tactile-sensing hand.
The company gives a maximum payload of 20 kg, a top speed of 1.9 m/s and average runtime of four hours. Hot-swappable batteries are intended to extend operation. Multiple cameras and LiDAR provide 360-degree perception, while Holiday Robotics names its autonomy system the Vision-Language-Skill, or VLS, stack.
Holiday Robotics says it is conducting private proof-of-concept trials with industrial partners, including work in automotive, semiconductor and logistics settings. It has discussed scaling production and a future target price of about KRW 100 million, but no public order page or current selling price was found. Because the robot is deployed only in selected trials, it is listed as a pilot. An earlier press report gave a weight of 115 kg; the newer official product page gives 125 kg and is used here.
