VR-H3
The VR-H3 is VinRobotics' third-generation high-end humanoid robot prototype, engineered for stable bipedal locomotion using reinforcement learning-based control with bio-inspired gait design, domain randomization, and curriculum learning for natural movement on varied terrains. Standing approximately 178 cm tall and weighing 75-85 kg, it features 31 smart motors driving rotary joints that mimic human kinematics, enabling fluid walking, gesturing, and object manipulation in crowded or hazardous environments like factories. Each arm lifts up to 3 kg, with swappable batteries supporting continuous operation. Equipped for semi-autonomous tasks, it navigates via visual and inertial systems, performs human-like interactions such as waving and handshakes, and prioritizes upper-body stability during dynamic lower-body adaptation. Aimed at industrial assistance, research, and future full automation, VR-H3 advances humanoid scalability with open interfaces for upper-body customization and robust sim-to-real transfer.
Quick Overview & Key Facts
VR-H3 is a humanoid system developed by VinRobotics in Vietnam and launched in 2025. Starting price is estimated at USD 150,000 – 300,000 (Targeted for early commercial pilots and research institutions). It is currently ranked #240 in most-viewed humanoid robots on Origin of Bots. It supports Tools, packages, precision instruments, people interaction. Operating battery runtime is rated at 8 hours (Standard task intensity); 4 hours (Continuous high-speed walking). Primary applications include Factory assistance, hazardous environment tasks, human-robot collaboration. Featured in editorial articles including “VinRobotics VR-H3 Hits Human-Level Walking Speed”.
