KEENON Robotics Unveils Revolutionary Bipedal Humanoid Robot XMAN-F1 at WAIC 2025 in Shanghai
Unveiling the Future: KEENON Robotics’ XMAN-F1 at WAIC 2025
A Groundbreaking Premiere in Shanghai
The World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) 2025, taking place from July 26 to 29 in Shanghai, is making waves in the realm of robotics. This year, the spotlight is on KEENON Robotics and their innovative bipedal humanoid service robot, the XMAN-F1. With a mission to showcase advancements in embodied intelligence, KEENON transforms the conference space into a vibrant Embodied Service Experience Hub, immersing attendees in a futuristic world of interactive scenarios.
Interactive Scenarios: Redefining Service
At the heart of the exhibition are three dynamic environments: a medical station, a lounge bar, and a performance space. These setups are meticulously designed to highlight how embodied AI is reshaping not just service sectors, but entire lifestyles and the industrial ecosystem. Attendees are invited to experience firsthand how the XMAN-F1 interacts within each scenario, demonstrating the flexibility and adaptability that come with advanced AI.
The Star of the Show: XMAN-F1
XMAN-F1 is not just a robot; it’s an experience. During live demonstrations, this humanoid showcases impressive human-like mobility and precision in completing various service tasks. From preparing popcorn to customizing chilled beverages—like mixing Sprite or Coke with adjustable ice levels—the XMAN-F1 proves that it can adapt to diverse environments and satisfy specific customer preferences.
Captivating Live Demonstrations
The robot is set to take the stage for autonomous presentations and product demonstrations, employing state-of-the-art multimodal interaction and large language model technologies. Its fluid movements and natural gestures capture the attention of onlookers, who gather around to witness the future of service first-hand.
Collaborating in Harmony: Multi-Robot Integration
One of the standout features of the event is how XMAN-F1 collaborates with other robotic systems. At the medical station, it pairs with the logistics robot M104, creating a closed-loop smart healthcare solution. Meanwhile, the bar scene highlights a partnership with Johnnie Walker Blue Label, renowned for its premium whisky. Here, the robotic bartenders and delivery robot T10 work seamlessly together to craft bespoke beverages, enhancing operational efficiency through multi-robot collaboration.
Leading the Industry
According to IDC, KEENON Robotics is a clear frontrunner in the commercial service robot sector, boasting 22.7% of global shipments and an impressive 40.4% share in food delivery robotics. At WAIC 2025, the company reinforces its leadership while unveiling its ecosystem-based strategy for cross-scenario embodied intelligence solutions.
Looking Ahead: The Future of Robotics
KEENON Robotics is committed to pushing the boundaries of embodied intelligence. With a focus on cutting-edge research and development, along with strategic global partnerships, the company is unlocking the full potential of what they term “Robotics+” applications worldwide.
As we stand on the brink of this robotic revolution, events like WAIC 2025 serve as a reminder of how far technology has come—and the incredible journey that lies ahead. The XMAN-F1 is just one example of how robotics and AI are set to redefine our interactions, workplaces, and everyday lives.
Stay tuned, because the future has never looked more exciting!
