Perspective
The founder of EngineAI Robotics is Zhao Tongyang, who had already worked in the related industry for eight years before establishing Shenzhen EngineAI Robotics Technology Co., Ltd. in October 2023.[2] In 2012, Zhao Tongyang started a business in IoT devices and later invested his first pot of gold into bipedal humanoid robots in 2016.[2] After 2018, Zhao shifted his focus to quadruped robots and co-founded Shenzhen Pengxing Intelligent Research Co., Ltd. with XPeng Motors to continue research in the field of robotics.[2] Subsequently, Zhao Tongyang took his intellectual property out of Pengxing Intelligent and founded Shenzhen EngineAI Robotics Technology Co., Ltd.,[2] with its headquarters located in the Shenzhen Bay Innovation and Technology Center in Nanshan District, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China.[3] The core team of EngineAI Robotics also largely comes from XPeng's robotics team, "Pengxing Intelligent Robotics".[4]
In July 2024, EngineAI launched its first bipedal robot, SA01, with a retail price of 38,500 RMB. In October of the same year, EngineAI released its first full-size general-purpose humanoid robot, SE01,[5] which made its debut at the "Setting Sail 2025" CCTV New Year's Gala. The robot stands 170 cm tall, weighs 55 kg, has 32 degrees of freedom, and can walk at a speed of 2 meters per second. It is capable of performing actions such as squatting, grasping, running, and jumping. The robot uses an end-to-end artificial neural network to optimize its gait performance, enabling it to take large strides instead of small steps, which is particularly challenging for bipedal robots.[3][6] In December of the same year, EngineAI launched the general-purpose humanoid robot PM01, which stands 138 cm tall.[3]
On February 23, 2025,[7] EngineAI Robotics released a video showing its humanoid robot performing the world's first front flip.[8]
