Starwalker P01
The Starwalker P01 by Digit Robotics is a pioneering dual-form humanoid robot featuring seamless switching between bipedal walking and wheeled modes for versatile navigation in commercial environments. Standing at human height with advanced bipedal locomotion, it achieves stable movement on stairs, uneven terrain, and tight spaces while wheeled mode extends runtime for long patrols. Equipped with 28+ degrees of freedom, dexterous arms, and a 5-finger gripper, it handles payloads up to 18kg per arm for tasks like tote manipulation, package sorting, and service interactions. Sensor fusion including LiDAR, depth cameras, IMU, and force sensors enables autonomous SLAM navigation, obstacle avoidance, and compliant grasping. Designed for logistics, warehouses, and human-collaborative settings, it offers multi-hour runtime, fall recovery, and modular end-effectors. Its human-like proportions and safety features promote safe proximity work, bridging industrial efficiency with service adaptability in dynamic real-world scenarios.
