The UBTECH Walker C1 is a newly launched service humanoid, introduced by UBTECH in 2026: its full engineering datasheet has not yet been released and units are allocated as UBTECH's commercial rollout proceeds, so configuration and delivery are confirmed with each quotation. It stands 165 cm tall, weighs around 50 kg and is built in aluminium alloy and composite, with electric servo actuation.
It is UBTECH's front-of-house humanoid, made to welcome guests, guide visitors, answer questions in several languages and give presentations in hotels, airports, exhibition halls, offices and other commercial venues. It walks on two legs, finds its own way through large indoor spaces with route following and obstacle avoidance, and holds conversations through UBTECH's embodied interactive large model. A built-in motion library supplies dynamic, customisable movement: at the China International Supply Chain Expo 2026, where it served as the expo's humanoid representative, the C1 led a waltz with a human partner and performed ballet passages alongside professional dancers.
The head and body carry two fish-eye cameras, a binocular camera and a monocular camera, four microphones, two speakers, an LCD display, two high-precision IMUs, an emergency stop button and a power switch, and a pair of dexterous hands is available as an option. Standard interfaces and a comprehensive SDK let integrators script dialogue, guided tours, presentations and choreography for each venue, and the robot connects over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
Within the Walker family, the C1 is the newer generation of the commercial Walker C line, built for more agile and more expressive movement than the earlier Walker C. The Walker S2 and Walker S are UBTECH's industrial humanoids for factory lines and material handling; the C1 is aimed at navigation, interaction and light service tasks rather than heavy manipulation. Degrees of freedom, battery endurance and walking speed are confirmed with the quotation as UBTECH releases its documentation.
