Atom-W

AI Chat

Last updated:

Atom-W is the wheeled version of DOBOT's ATOM humanoid, built for real industrial work. It pairs a humanlike upper body, with a two-axis head, a four-axis waist and two seven-axis arms, with a compact mobile base that finds its way by LiDAR and fits through aisles only half a meter wide. Its arms repeat their movements to within five hundredths of a millimeter, and force control keeps them smooth and compliant, so it can handle precision assembly as well as picking and carrying. Depth and high-definition stereo cameras in the head let it see its work, and optional cameras at the hands and waist, six-axis force sensors and six-axis dexterous hands extend what it can do. An onboard Intel Core i9 computer with a powerful graphics card runs DOBOT's Neural Dexterous System and a vision-language-action model for end-to-end autonomous reasoning, together with a built-in large language model that knows the industry and can take on custom conversation personas. DOBOT shows Atom-W picking, sorting, carrying, loading and unloading parts, from automotive parts supply to warehouse storage bins. For research teams it comes with an immersive VR data collection kit, an embodied data toolchain, a companion app for managing data and an SDK with ROS 2 support.
