Product overview
About Lumos NIX
Lumos NIX is a compact bipedal humanoid from Lumos Robotics. The official product page, titled NIX S3, lists an 89 cm height, 25.41 kg total weight including battery and 21 degrees of freedom: four per arm, one waist joint and six per leg.
The page lists a 3 kg maximum payload, a 282 Wh quick-detach battery with about 2 hours of runtime, 102 N·m peak joint torque, an RGB camera, a four-microphone array and an RK3588 compute module. It offers Professional and Education editions; the Education edition adds more routines and opens an SDK for secondary development. The official Project EDGE page further describes a C++/Python SDK and about 6 TOPS of onboard NPU compute. No speed or price is published.
Xinhua reported that the NIX series was displayed at the 2025 World Robot Conference. Project EDGE offers 100 units to selected universities, labs and developers for research and co-development. Lumos also lists NIX on its official purchase-inquiry form, but without a price or standard retail shipping terms. That combination supports pilot status rather than general commercial availability.
