T800
EngineAI's full-size "high-dynamic" humanoid, built for speed and power: it has the strongest joints and the highest top speed of any robot here. Known for kung-fu-style demos, it began mass deliveries in 2026.
The first batch entered mass delivery from EngineAI's new Shenzhen factory in late May 2026. Sold in four editions, from Basic (no hands) to Max (NVIDIA Thor, industrial-grade parts); the specs below describe the upper editions.
How it works
6 ideas that make T800 different
Numbers mark where each idea sits on the robot.
The strongest joints here
Its leg joints reach 450 N·m of peak torque, more than any other robot on this site, with up to 14 kW of peak joint power reported. That burst of force is what lets it jump, spin and land kicks.
Running pace
A reported top speed of 3 m/s is close to a human jog. Moving that fast means the balance controller has to correct each step in a fraction of a second.
Light, stiff frame
The body is reported to be a magnesium-aluminium alloy, keeping the robot to about 75 kg while staying rigid enough to absorb hard landings.
Sees in every direction
A 360° LiDAR scans the surroundings while depth cameras judge distances up close, so it can move quickly without bumping into things.
Power in a quick-release pack
A modular 72 V battery clips in and out by hand, giving up to four hours per pack. Unlike Atlas or Walker S2, a person does the swap.
Tested on stage
EngineAI uses combat events and stunt demos to stress-test its hardware in public, and to prove it is real: its CEO let a T800 kick him to answer doubts about its launch video.

Identity
Body
What this means
Each degree of freedom is one joint that can move on its own. More joints mean more human-like movement, but also more motors to power and control. Hands are where counts climb fastest: a dexterous hand alone can have 10 to 20.
Performance
What this means
How much a robot can lift is quoted in very different ways: per arm or with the whole body, as a brief peak or something it can hold all shift. Only figures measured the same way can be compared.
What this means
Hours on one charge mean little without the conditions: standing still drains far less than walking or carrying loads. A robot that swaps its battery can work longer than its runtime suggests.
What this means
The IP code says how well the robot is sealed: the first digit is dust, the second water. IP67 means dust-tight and able to survive brief submersion, which matters in factories that are hosed down.
Intelligence
What this means
Who is really in control. A teleoperated robot is driven by a person; a scripted one replays programmed moves; a learned policy decides for itself from training. Demos often mix all three without saying so.
