Dora
Lightweight general-purpose home humanoid robot
Contact for pricing
Dora is a product-level, lightweight general-purpose humanoid robot developed by Noetix Robotics for home, education and elder-care settings. It uses deep reinforcement learning and imitation learning for anthropomorphic walking across varied terrain and can perform tasks such as picking up cups and folding clothes. An NVIDIA Jetson Orin edge module with multi-camera structured-light depth vision and large language model integration enables voice interaction and visual recognition.
Released: 2024

Overview
Dora is Noetix Robotics' lightweight, product-level general-purpose humanoid robot, positioned as a home and indoor companion for family, education and elder-care use. Noetix describes it as a carrier of embodied intelligence built on the company's accumulated motion-control algorithms and self-developed joints.
The robot walks in an anthropomorphic gait learned through deep reinforcement learning, adapting to different surfaces and obstacles while resisting external disturbances. Noetix has demonstrated Dora performing everyday manipulation tasks such as picking up cups and folding clothes when fitted with optional dexterous hands.
Onboard edge AI from an NVIDIA Jetson Orin module, combined with structured-light depth-camera vision and large language model integration, gives Dora voice interaction and visual recognition. A front display, microphone array and speaker support natural human-robot interaction.
