Full-size service humanoid
UBTech's product page positions the Walker C1 as a full-size humanoid service robot for hotels, airports and exhibition centers. [1]
Product overview
UBTech Robotics describes the Walker C1 as a full-size service humanoid designed for public-facing work. The company published an official introduction video on 22 May 2026 and later demonstrated the robot performing dance routines with professional dancers. Its product page describes scalable production, rapid deployment, standard development interfaces and operation in hotels, airports, exhibition halls and similar indoor settings.
An authorized UBTech distributor in Japan lists the C1 at 164 cm and 55 kg with 53 degrees of freedom, including passive joints. It gives a nominal maximum walking speed of 3 m/s and a dual-arm load of 6 kg. The standard model uses model hands, while optional dexterous hands add 11 axes each. Perception hardware includes fisheye, stereo and monocular cameras, plus microphones and speakers.
A 48 V, 14 Ah battery provides about three hours of operation and has an advertised charge time no longer than one hour 45 minutes. The listed controller is an NVIDIA Jetson Thor with 128 GB memory and 2,070 TFLOPS of FP4 performance. The distributor offers commercial consultations and developer-system support, so the earlier prototype classification is no longer appropriate. No public list price or direct online order page was found.
