Current platform

Adam

PNDbotics (founded 2023, headquartered in Beijing's Haidian district with a registered subsidiary in Ningbo) is a full-stack humanoid startup that develops its own PSA quasi-direct-drive actuators, robot control unit, and battery management system. Its Adam humanoid stands about 1.6 to 1.67 m and 60 to 63 kg and comes in several variants, including Adam Lite at about 25 degrees of freedom, the roughly 41-to-43-degree-of-freedom Adam and Adam SP, the teleoperation and research variant Adam-U, and Adam Pro, with a V-shaped hip, a three-degree-of-freedom waist, PSA actuators peaking near 360 Nm, five-fingered hands, and about 5 kg of payload. Adam appeared at CES, WAIC 2025, and on CGTN's 2026 Spring Festival Gala, and an April 2026 video showed it navigating real outdoor stairs. The registry records it at research maturity: its public evidence is demonstrations of music conducting, dance, and stair-climbing, which are stated capability claims, and Adam is sold and pre-ordered primarily as a developer and research platform to labs rather than deployed at customers. A partnership with Tianyong Engineering to integrate Adam into automotive production is forward-looking intent with no units, sites, or dates specified, so any operational deployment, the exact funding, a planned Tianjin plant producing hundreds of units annually, and the demo capabilities as repeatable field performance are all recorded as claimed-but-not-verified.
