EngineAI SE01 Walks Elegantly Down a Crowded Street

New robot in China surprises people with ability to walk smoothly like a human.

Its gait was light and swift, which, for example, contrasts sharply with the jerky movements of the Tesla Optimus robot when walking. The SE01 robot became the crown jewel of the EngineAI model range, showing the possible future use of humanoid robots in manufacturing and everyday life.

EngineAI was founded in October 2023. Despite its youth, the company has a solid foundation. Its founders were veterans in the field of robotics, as well as people from academia and specialized companies. The SE01 robot speaks for itself. More precisely, the way it can move, quite accurately imitating human movement. This is not only walking, but also squats, push-ups, climbing stairs and others.

Engine AI plans to offer the model at a price of $20,000 to $27,000.
