Humanoids

$9,000

Noetix N2 packs biped agility into a compact, safer form factor. With five joint legs, four joint arms, and compliant actuation, it can run, hop, and perform dynamic motions without the mass and risk of larger humanoids. Its small footprint lets teams operate it comfortably in classrooms, research labs, and tight indoor spaces.

Overview

The platform runs Linux on an RK3588s, with Jetson based variants shown for higher AI workloads. It supports speech and visual interaction hooks and offers Ethernet, USB, and HDMI for fast development.

Developers can bring their own models and tools, using Python or C++ to build behaviors, interfaces, and research pipelines.

Applications & Use Cases

Education teams can use N2 to teach locomotion, perception, and human robot interaction. R and D groups can mount sensors, test AI models, or connect to ROS and custom control stacks.

Because it is fast but lightweight, it also fits early elder care and home assist scenarios where safety, size, and maneuverability matter more than heavy payloads.
