DEUX
AI ChatLast updated:
DEUX is a two-armed semi-humanoid from XYZ, a Seoul robotics company also known for its BarisBrew robot barista. It was shown at the 2026 Seoul AI Robot Show at COEX, where it shook hands with visitors and played rock-paper-scissors using voice and motion interaction. Its two 7-axis arms end in three-finger grippers and carry about 11 kg together. In all it has 32 degrees of freedom. It stands on a base that turns freely in any direction, and its body height adjusts between 90 and 155 cm so it can work at a counter, a shelf or a bedside. XYZ pairs it with Glove X, a data glove that mirrors a person's hand movements one to one so tasks can be taught by demonstration, and with its Brain X models. XYZ names retail, offices, hospitals and homes as targets and is building toward chores such as folding laundry. The company aims to release DEUX in December 2026.
