Guanghua No. 1
Guanghua No. 1 is an advanced emotional humanoid robot engineered by Fudan University for elderly care and healthcare companionship. Standing at human height with 45 intelligent joints and a hierarchical generative brain model, it achieves fluid bipedal walking, arm swinging, and upright posture while manipulating objects delicately. A facial screen displays four core emotions—happiness, anger, sadness, and joy—powered by brain-inspired algorithms mimicking dopamine rewards and multilevel incentives for human-like perception and response. Designed to interpret human expressions, it provides empathetic, personalized assistance like helping seniors out of bed or to the restroom. Multilingual support in six languages enhances global applicability, addressing aging populations through emotional intelligence beyond mechanical tasks, fostering family-like warmth in interactions.
