Xiaomi Robotics
Xiaomi's robotics team builds full-size two-legged humanoids under the product code CyberOne. The first one was shown in August 2022 as a technology demonstrator, and a second-generation prototype was unveiled at the 2026 World Robot Conference after four months of trial work in Xiaomi's own EV factory. Xiaomi says the robot is not meant to be a standalone product. It is meant for Xiaomi's own smart-manufacturing plants, running on the company's open-source Xiaomi-Robotics-0 VLA model (the same lab earlier made the CyberDog quadruped).
