Qiji T1000 is a ton-class heavy-load robot horse from Dax Robotics in Beijing, unveiled at the Bird’s Nest stadium in April 2026 as the first legged robot able to carry a full tonne. Its self-developed joints deliver torque several times higher than typical robot dogs, and an ultra-high-voltage power system gives it one to two days of endurance. It is built to follow patrols up snowy passes, haul hoses and rescue gear into fire zones, carry building materials up steep sites and move cargo where trucks cannot go, crossing snow, ice, mud, rock and slopes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about this robot

Q1. What is the robot dog Qiji T1000, and what problem does it solve?

Qiji T1000 is a heavy-load robot horse from Dax Robotics. It carries loads that ordinary robot dogs cannot, so people and trucks do not have to haul supplies over rough ground.

Q2. What are the main capabilities and key features of Qiji T1000?

It carries a full tonne, keeps working for a day or two on one charge and walks over snow, ice, mud, rock and steep slopes using very strong self-made joints.

Q3. Who is Qiji T1000 built for, and which industries benefit from it?

It is built for security patrols in remote areas, firefighting and rescue teams, construction and infrastructure sites, and logistics operators.

Q4. Is Qiji T1000 a commercial product or a research prototype?

It is a commercial product that Dax Robotics launched in 2026 as the first in a new class of ton-class legged robots.

Q5. Is Qiji T1000 currently available for purchase?

Dax Robotics has launched it and started cooperating with logistics companies; buyers should contact the company for availability and delivery.

Q6. How does Qiji T1000 perform in real-world environments and rough terrain?

Dax Robotics presents it carrying heavy loads over snow, ice, steep slopes and rock, and it was shown to the public at WAIC 2026.

Q7. When was Qiji T1000 announced or officially launched?

Dax Robotics launched it at the Bird’s Nest stadium in Beijing in April 2026.

Q8. How does Qiji T1000 compare to other quadruped robot dogs?

Most robot dogs carry only a few kilograms. The Qiji T1000 is aimed at carrying a thousand kilograms, closer to a light work vehicle than a pet-sized robot.

Q9. Can Qiji T1000 be customized with add-ons or third-party tools?

Dax Robotics plans to serve six main areas, from patrol and rescue to logistics and eldercare, using the same strong joint technology.

Q10. What is the future roadmap or planned upgrades for Qiji T1000?

The company is extending its heavy joint technology to other robots, including the rideable Qiji X1 and a bipedal humanoid.
