What it is

Yuanzheng A3 is AgiBot's next-generation full-size humanoid robot, announced on February 13, 2026 and positioned for high-frequency human-robot interaction scenarios such as guided tours, retail assistance, and entertainment performances; the company calls it "a silicon-born star built for the stage."

On the hardware side, Yuanzheng A3 stands 173 cm tall and weighs 55 kg, with hyper-human-like whole-body degrees of freedom (media reports put it at around 31 DOF), a 3 kg payload at the end of each arm, and a maximum TCP speed of 2 m/s. A fully articulated flexible waist reproduces the human waist 1:1, supporting demanding moves such as flying kicks in mid-air, consecutive flying kicks, and mid-air walking.

For endurance, it uses a battery-embedded torso design and a visually integrated dual-battery system, delivering up to 8–10 hours of combined runtime on a full charge and supporting 10-second battery swaps.

In May 2026, the first 200 Yuanzheng A3 units rolled off the line at AgiBot's Southwest Base; on May 15 of the same year, Yuanzheng A3 officially took up residence at the Shanghai Grand Theatre, becoming the world's first "resident robot" and opening up new applications for humanoid robots in cultural consumption.
