Humanoid Robot that Can Do Kung Fu? LimX Dynamics Launches LimX Oli

Introducing Learned Natural Walking
We are excited to introduce our end-to-end neural network, trained with reinforcement learning (RL), for humanoid locomotion.

LimX Dynamics, a Chinese robotics company, just launched a full-size humanoid robot named LimX Oli on its native market. It is capable of many things, including doing some Kung Fu action!

LimX Oli is 165 cm tall, boasting 31 active degrees of freedom (DoF) that allow it to “move” like a human. Beyond the simple motion of walking on its own and carrying objects, the robot can also do other activities such as exercising and dancing, all thanks to its movable joints.

Because of its modular and flexible design in hardware and software, LimX Oli is also easy to customize for developers. Parts like its fingers and hands are swappable. Third-party tools like microphones, cameras, tactile sensors, IMUs, and LiDAR can be added in it as well. What’s more, it is equipped with open SDK that gives developers freedom to access its movements, sensor data, and joint controls— remotely or AI-trained— without changing its core architecture.

While it is designed for general purposes, LimX Oli is marketed for AI researchers, robotics developers, and systems integrators. It comes with three versions (Lite, EDU, and Super), all of which support hands-on development and testing to do any motion- or interaction-based tasks.

For now, it is only available in Mainland China. However, LimX Dynamics confirmed there will be a global release in the near future.
