VinRobotics
VinRobotics is a Vingroup technology company based in Hanoi, formed in late 2024 with charter capital of 1 trillion Vietnamese dong, that focuses on automation and industrial robotics across manufacturing and service sectors. Its chief executive is Ngô Quốc Hưng. VinRobotics makes the VR-H3, its third-generation humanoid, developed for industrial automation, material handling and operational support in complex working environments. The VR-H3 stands about 178 cm tall, weighs 75 to 85 kg and uses 31 smart motors driving rotary joints that mimic human kinematics for walking, gesturing and object manipulation. It can be operated remotely with motion capture built into a virtual reality headset, needing no external devices, and showed stable operation in crowded exhibition spaces. Its core technologies, including the mechanical structure and the real-time computing and electrical architecture, were developed in-house by Vietnamese engineers. VinRobotics debuted the VR-H3 abroad at IEEE ICRA 2026 and COMPUTEX Taipei 2026, and also makes other robots such as the VR-M2 and the Dyno.
💡Notable Achievement: VinRobotics humanoid robots have achieved human-level walking speed using Reinforcement Learning-based locomotion for stable movement on large platforms.

Standing at human height with human-like proportions, it features 31 smart motors enabling precise rotary joint movements for walking in crowded spaces, arm gestures like waving and handshaking, and object manipulation. Each arm lifts up to 3 kg, supporting tasks such as picking, assembly, and inspection. Equipped with dual swappable batteries for continuous operation, advanced AI vision for navigation and object recognition, and reinforcement learning-based locomotion for stable gait on uneven terrain. Its robust aluminum frame weighs 75 kg, balancing strength and agility for logistics, quality control, and collaborative human-robot workflows, with potential for full autonomy in dynamic settings.
VR-H3
By: VinRobotics
Launched: 2025
The VR-H3 is VinRobotics' third-generation high-end humanoid robot prototype, engineered for stable bipedal locomotion using reinforcement learning-based control with bio-inspired gait design, domain randomization, and curriculum learning for natural movement on varied terrains. Standing approximately 178 cm tall and weighing 75-85 kg, it features 31 smart motors driving rotary joints that mimic human kinematics, enabling fluid walking, gesturing, and object manipulation in crowded or hazardous environments like factories. Each arm lifts up to 3 kg, with swappable batteries supporting continuous operation. Equipped for semi-autonomous tasks, it navigates via visual and inertial systems, performs human-like interactions such as waving and handshakes, and prioritizes upper-body stability during dynamic lower-body adaptation. Aimed at industrial assistance, research, and future full automation, VR-H3 advances humanoid scalability with open interfaces for upper-body customization and robust sim-to-real transfer.
VR-M2
By: VinRobotics
Launched: 2025
The VR-M2 humanoid robot from VinRobotics is a mid-range bipedal platform designed for industrial logistics, factory automation, and research applications. Standing approximately 165 cm tall with human-like proportions, it features 32-40 degrees of freedom powered by electric servo actuators and harmonic gear drives for stable, natural gait including walking at up to 4 km/h, stair navigation, and uneven terrain handling. Equipped with dual 1080p RGB-depth cameras, IMU, gyroscopes, and force sensors, it enables visual SLAM navigation and real-time perception-planning-action integration. Dual arms with 5-finger hands offer 10-14 DOF per hand for dexterous manipulation, carrying up to 3-10 kg per arm and deadlifting 40 kg total. Safe for human collaboration with collision detection and emergency stops, it supports semi-autonomous operation, multi-language voice interaction, fall recovery, and swappable batteries for 4-hour runtime. Built from aluminum and plastic composites, VR-M2 excels in harsh indoor environments, performing tasks like object handling, gesturing, and autonomous charging.
