The reveal of the T800 by EngineAI replaces the traditional logic of technical demonstrations with something more direct, showing a life-size robbery executing roundhouse kicks, jumps and spins as if it were there and a choreography rehearsed for cinema, according to the company, nothing there underwent digital manipulation, reinforcing that the dynamic stability shown in the videos is the result of the hardware itself.
The action hero aesthetic used in the first teasers is confirmed as a central part of the strategy, the numbers help to understand the performance. The T800 is about 1.73 tall with a weight of 75 kg, including the battery, more compact measurements than imagined from previous leaks. There are 29 grams of freedom distributed throughout the body, six in each leg and seven in each arm. The maximum torque of 450 Nm explains the force exposure that sustains jumps and kicks, while the maximum speed of 3 meters per second shows that the displacement accompanies the dynamism of the video.
Embedded computing remains at a cutting-edge standard. The Pro and Max versions use the Nvidia Jetson Thor chip, capable of nearly 2 billion operations per second using 4-bit mathematics, revealing how even Chinese manufacturers still rely on American silicon for integrated artificial intelligence.
The version uses Intel Real Sense D415 and D435i cameras, as well as AC1 sensors, making up the sensory set, the 72 V battery with quick change maintains autonomy between 2 and 4 hours; The comparison placed in the video itself with the PM01, the smallest blunt, responsible for previous viral stunts, shows EngineAI's development curve since its founding at the end of 2023.
The company moved from compact bipedal experiments to a full-sport platform designed for high torque and endurance testing; The explosion of blows and acrobatics also anticipates the Roboxer competition scheduled for December 24, although the catalog includes more conventional applications such as logistics, hospitality and industrial collaboration; The strategy crystallizes in the union between spectacle and pragmatism.
The videos attract global attention, sustain marketing, and serve as testing grounds for hardware that the company actually puts into operation, such as the cyber employees installed in retail in JS.
That logic aligns with the trend described by sector analysis, humanoids are still in early stages and therefore find spaces in specific functions where futuristic presence is part of the value delivered, while general-purpose intelligence is still maturing.
The T800 ends up symbolizing this moment in robotics, a machine capable of breaking down doors in a video today, but designed to organize a warehouse tomorrow. or who knows, maybe break some bones there.
