DOBOT officially debuted the global mass production and delivery of its humanoid robot DOBOT Atom at a launch conference held in Nagoya, Japan on June 27, 2025. Over 200 Japanese partners and dozens of industry media witnessed the unveiling. The first production batch of Atom units was delivered live at the event, achieved in partnership with Japanese system integrator ASKA Corporation.

Atom is the world's first full-size humanoid robot combining dexterous manipulation with straight-knee walking, powered by DOBOT's proprietary Neuro-Driven System (NDS) with ±0.05mm repeatability. This marks a commercial breakthrough for embodied intelligent robotics but no specific end-customer deployment site has been named.
