Noetix BUMI EDU PRO Humanoid Robot

A humanoid robot that walks on two legs used to belong in a research lab, behind a budget meeting and a long wait. The Noetix BUMI EDU PRO Humanoid Robot brings that experience down to desk and classroom scale, then adds an NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super module so students can go past block programming and into embodied AI.

Background

Noetix Robotics and the Bumi line

Noetix Robotics is based in Beijing. Its Bumi is a compact bipedal humanoid designed to bring true legged locomotion to classrooms, makerspaces and homes, at a price point that was previously reserved for wheeled toys. The idea is simple: a walking robot should not be something a school only sees on a video screen.

Bumi is sold in eight versions: Lite, Air, Pro, Max, Spring Festival, and three education versions, EDU-Air, EDU-Pro and EDU-Max, which carry NVIDIA Jetson Orin. This page covers the EDU-Pro. The same platform is also offered as the Bumi Pro, so the two share the same body: 21 degrees of freedom, a height of 98 cm and a weight of 17 kg. Browse the full family in the Noetix BUMI category.

What sets the EDU-Pro apart

The EDU-Pro builds on the EDU-Air by adding the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super high-compute module. Compared with the Bumi Pro, it adds that module and further features for secondary development, AI applications and advanced robotics projects. The body, the joints and the sensors are the same. What changes is how much thinking the robot can do on board.

The walking itself comes from proprietary Noetix force-controlled joint modules, with up to 70 N·m of peak knee torque. That torque supports stable bipedal walking and dynamic recovery. The robot can stand up and lie down on its own after a fall, which matters in a room full of curious students.

Technical Specifications

The manufacturer has not published the dimensions, the package contents, the IP rating, the payload, the charging time, the operating temperature, any certifications or the memory of the Jetson module; they are confirmed at quotation.

What does the EDU-Pro add over the Bumi Pro?

On the outside, very little. Both are built on one humanoid platform with 21 degrees of freedom, integrated camera systems, voice interaction and a graphical programming environment. Both support mobile app control, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, motion libraries and OTA updates. Both also offer the full upper-level motion control SDK.

The difference is the brain. The EDU-Pro carries an NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super module, and with it additional features aimed at secondary development, AI applications and advanced robotics projects. A school that only needs to teach drag-and-drop programming and show a walking robot to a class may find the Pro enough. A school that wants students to run their own vision or learning code on the robot itself has a reason to choose the EDU-Pro.

If you want to compare the neighbors, the Noetix BUMI PRO Compact Humanoid Robot is the version without the education compute module.

How does the EDU-Pro compare with the other EDU versions?

The education line has three steps. The EDU-Air is the base. The EDU-Pro adds the Jetson Orin Nano Super to it. The EDU-Max moves up to the Jetson Orin NX. The EDU-Pro sits in the middle.

For a team that is still finding its feet with embodied AI, the middle step is a sensible place to start: it carries a real Jetson module, and it does not commit the project to the top tier. Teams that want the lighter entry can look at the Noetix BUMI EDU Air Humanoid Robot, and teams that need more compute can look at the Noetix BUMI EDU MAX Humanoid Robot. Figures for one version should not be read across to another, so ask about the exact version you choose.

Who is the Noetix BUMI EDU PRO for?

Universities and technical colleges are the first group. The robot is meant for educational institutions, robotics training, STEM programmes and research projects, and the Jetson module gives students something real to program against.

Schools and makerspaces are the second group. Graphical drag-and-drop programming and a mobile app mean younger learners can start on day one, while older students can move to the SDK. The hot-swappable battery helps in a busy lab, where one pack can charge while another is in use.

The third group is organizations that need a humanoid for demonstrations, such as training centers, technology exhibitions and visitor programs. A robot that walks, hears and responds to voice draws a crowd.

If your needs are simpler, the Noetix BUMI Standard Humanoid Robot may be the better match. If the Jetson module is the whole point, this is the version to ask about.

What is the Noetix BUMI EDU PRO used for?

1. Robotics teaching. Students learn legged locomotion, balance and joint control on a real bipedal machine.
2. STEM programmes. Drag-and-drop programming and the mobile app give beginners a quick first result.
3. Embodied AI projects. The Jetson Orin Nano Super module lets students run AI workloads on the robot.
4. Secondary development. The upper-level motion control SDK lets research groups write their own behaviors.
5. Perception experiments. The structured-light depth camera and IMU support work on environment awareness and balance.
6. Public demonstrations. Walking, voice interaction and motion libraries make a clear showcase at open days and events.

Frequently Asked Questions

How tall is the Noetix BUMI EDU PRO and how much does it weigh?

It is 98 cm tall and weighs 17 kg. It has 21 degrees of freedom.

What compute does the EDU-Pro have?

It has 6 TOPS of base compute, and it carries the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super module.

How long does the battery last?

The quick-release 48 V / 3.5 Ah smart battery runs for 2–3 hours per charge. It is hot-swappable for continuous classroom use.

How do I program the robot?

You can use graphical drag-and-drop programming or the mobile app. The full upper-level motion control SDK is there for secondary development, and OTA updates simplify software maintenance.

How does the robot sense its surroundings?

It uses a structured-light depth camera and an IMU. These support environmental awareness and balance.

Can the robot get up after a fall?

Yes. It has autonomous stand-up and lie-down recovery, and its top walking speed is 0.5 m/s.

Summary

The Noetix BUMI EDU PRO takes a walking humanoid out of the lab and puts it in a room of learners, with a 98 cm body, 21 degrees of freedom and a hot-swappable battery. What sets it apart is the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super module, which turns a teaching robot into a platform for AI and secondary development. For schools, colleges and research teams that want that step up, this page is the starting point.
