Overview
Fourier Intelligence (Shanghai Fourier Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd.) is a Chinese robotics company specializing in rehabilitation robots and general-purpose humanoids. The company developed the GR-1, China's first humanoid robot to reach mass production in 2023, followed by the GR-2 and GR-3. Fourier raised nearly 800 million yuan (~$110M) in a Series E round in early 2025 and launched China's first open-source humanoid (Fourier N1).

Fourier GR-1
The Fourier GR-1 was China's first humanoid robot to reach mass production, launched in 2023 by Fourier Intelligence. Standing 165 cm tall with 40 degrees of freedom, the GR-1 was validated in rehabilitation centers and industrial settings before the GR-2 (September 2024) and GR-3 Care-Bot (August 2025) succeeded it. Hands feature 11 degrees of freedom for precise manipulation.
Current platform
Fourier ExoMotus M4
Powered bilateral lower-limb rehabilitation exoskeleton with motorized hip/knee actuators and AI-adaptive passive/assistive/active/resistive modes selectable by patient stage. Commercial (clinical, Asia-Pacific focus). (Distinct from Fourier's GR humanoid line.)
Current platform
Fourier GR-3
Fourier Intelligence's current flagship full-size humanoid and first explicit 'Care-bot,' the third generation of its GRx series (unveiled 2025; US debut at CES 2026). Stands 165 cm, weighs 71 kg, with 55 degrees of freedom, a soft-touch shell, a full-perception multimodal interaction system (vision, sound-source localization, haptics), and a dual hot-swappable battery system. Positioned for eldercare, rehabilitation, guided tours, and social-companion roles.
Current platform
Fourier GR-2
Fourier Intelligence's second-generation GRx humanoid (2024), since succeeded by the current flagship GR-3. A full-size bipedal research/general-purpose humanoid that improved on mobility and roughly doubled battery life over the original GR-1 (2023, reported as China's first mass-produced humanoid). Retained here as a prior-generation model in the GRx lineage.
