How it stands in your space.
Side-by-side with a 180 cm adult, so you can feel the robot's footprint, height, and presence before it ever rolls in.
Compared with a 180 cm adult, KUAVO 5 stands at approximately waist-to-chest height.

Should you deploy it?
0–100 — higher is stronger, except where noted.
How operationally ready this robot is for production deployment today.
Confidence in the published ROI numbers — how likely the savings actually materialize.
Share of the human task this category can credibly offload.
Fit with your target environment — lighting, floor type, congestion.
Expected maintenance load and downtime risk. Lower is better.
Long-horizon strategic upside — where the platform points 3+ years out.
Too early to call — Leju has not published height, weight, walking speed, payload, grip force, battery runtime, or charge time. Modularity is compelling for labs and multi-task factories, but lack of confirmed real-world throughput or ROI data makes buying at $38k–$50k a frontier move, not a proven cost-saver.

When to deploy this.
- Automotive plant assembly lines with flexible task routing (tested at Nio in 2024)
- Research labs requiring custom end-effector swapping via modular arms
- Pilot deployments in small logistics warehouses (walk/wheel modes for varied floors)
When to skip it.
- No official walking speed, incline, turning radius, or gait stability metrics published
- Payload and grip force specifications withheld
- Not yet available for commercial purchase; only pilot and testing partnerships
What's verified, what's estimated.
Robofy separates manufacturer-confirmed facts from operator estimates. Anything not yet press-sourced or supplier-confirmed is tagged so you can decide how much weight to give it.
Specs and launch timing from Mike Kalil and Leju press (November 2025); modular design and switching capability confirmed across multiple sources. Pricing at $50,000 and early deployments (FAW, Nio, Haier) from Humanoid Press. Key missing specs (height, weight, runtime, charge time) documented in Humanoid Press database. 8-hour battery life noted in Mike Kalil coverage.

From rollout to recharge.
- 01
Teach by demonstration
Engineers walk the humanoid through the target task, recording motion and contact data.
- 02
Train task policy
Sensor traces feed a learned policy that generalizes the demonstrated behavior across the workspace.
- 03
Whole-body manipulation
The robot executes the task with full-body coordination — handling tools, totes, or load points autonomously.
- 04
Pilot loop & refine
Failures and exceptions feed back into training; the policy improves with each shift logged.
Picture this robot in your floor plan.
Upload a photo or floor plan of your venue and we'll show this robot at scale — so you can feel its footprint, sight lines, and clearance before deployment.
