NAVIAI WA2

NAVIAI WA2 is a wheel-arm humanoid from Zhejiang Humanoid Robot Innovation Center (浙江人形机器人创新中心), presented as a general-purpose flexible-work robot. It was shown at the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai in July 2026, where the company paired it with an autonomous mobile robot from partner 迦智科技.

At the show, the WA2 ran a pick, transfer, return and reset loop alongside the mobile robot. Zhejiang Humanoid cited ±0.02 mm end-effector repeat positioning, about 35 seconds per transfer on a production line and a 99% success rate, and said non-standard lines can be deployed in about a day. These are company claims reported by trade press, not independent test results.

The WA2 was also shown at the 2026 World Robot Conference in Beijing in August 2026, in a dual-machine demonstration with the NAVIAI i3 biped. Zhejiang Humanoid and KION Group (凯傲集团) signed a strategic cooperation agreement, and Chinese press reports that the WA2 has been validated at a KION factory, with its work scope extended to more material categories and an interim POC acceptance completed in September 2026. That customer-site validation is the basis for pilot status rather than prototype.

The sources reviewed do not give height, weight, degrees of freedom, payload, speed, battery or price for the WA2, so the specification table is empty.
