WALL-B
X Square Robot's WALL-B is an embodied AI foundation model designed for logistics parcel induction, paired with the company's self-developed High-Performance 6-Axis Robot Arm. In an August 2026 livestream, it sorted 10,000 parcels in 5h14m (1.88 sec/parcel, 1,911 parcels/hour) with >98% accuracy, ~35% faster than Figure's reported 2.88 sec/parcel. The same WALL-B model also runs household tasks and fine manipulation across dexterous hands, arms, and mobile manipulators.
Current platform
Quanta X2
X Square Robot Quanta X2 is a full-size humanoid robot developed by Shenzhen-based X Square Robot (formerly Variable Robotics Technology Co., founded 2023). Standing 172 cm tall and weighing 95 kg, it has 62 degrees of freedom including dual 7-DOF arms, an optional 20-DOF dexterous hand system, a 6-DOF omnidirectional chassis, and a walking speed of up to 3.6 km/h with approximately two hours of runtime per charge. The robot integrates the WALL-A embodied AI foundation model; the company raised $140 million in Series A++ funding in January 2026.
