Unix AI Martian Bipedal General Purpose Humanoid Robot

Most humanoid robots are shown on a stage; far fewer are built to bend down and lift something off the floor. The Unix AI Martian Bipedal General Purpose Humanoid Robot is designed around that ordinary but difficult act, with arms, legs and a dexterous hand that work together on two legs rather than on a wheeled base.

The product is available through this page, by quotation.

Background

UNIXAI and the Martian lineage

UNIXAI develops humanoid robots, and its range includes wheeled platforms alongside this bipedal model. The Martian sits in the range for buyers who want a machine that stands and walks at human scale instead of rolling on a base. The core components of the robot are developed in-house, which means the company designs the parts that matter most for movement and control rather than assembling them from catalog items.

Two versions are named, Martian and Martian 2.0. Every figure on this page belongs to the Martian. Martian 2.0 is given none of these figures and is handled separately when you request a quotation.

Positioning and key technology

The Martian is positioned as a general-purpose humanoid. It is not tied to a single task, and it is meant to be taught and programmed for several. The platform combines perception with large-scale models, so the robot's sensing and its decision making work as one system. The sensor set is a depth camera, two RGB cameras and an IMU.

The controls side uses a self-developed, high-performance vector control technology, and the robot communicates over a CANFD bus. For teams that want to build their own behaviors, high-level and low-level API interfaces are available for secondary development. The Martian also supports OTA updates, so software can be improved without taking the machine apart.

What makes the Martian different from a wheeled humanoid?

The difference starts with the base. A wheeled humanoid moves smoothly across flat, prepared floors and is often the more practical choice there. The Martian has 12-DoF legs, so it works on the same footing as a person. Together with 14-DoF arms, the legs let the robot squat, bend and pick up objects directly from the floor. That is a different job from reaching across a counter, and it is the main reason to look at a bipedal machine.

The hand is the second difference. The Martian carries an 11-DoF industrial-grade dexterous hand that delivers human-level flexibility. A hand with that many degrees of freedom is built for handling varied objects instead of one fixed shape. The robot's total payload is 5 kg, which is the figure to keep in mind when you plan what it should carry.

Finally there is the computing. The platform provides 40T of computing power with 32GB Ram, and the sensors feed it with depth and color images plus inertial data. For a team that wants to develop its own behaviors, the high-level and low-level APIs give two entry points: one for commanding the robot at the task level and one for working closer to the joints.

What should you know about its power and motion?

The Martian runs on a 48 V rated voltage with a 9 Ah battery. Motor maximum torque is 150 N.m, and the maximum movement speed is 4 m/s. If runtime matters for your shifts or your demonstration schedule, raise it when you request the quotation.

At 148 cm tall and 40 kg, the robot is a full human-scale machine, but it is lighter than many adults. That matters when you plan transport, storage and handling in a lab or a workshop.

Who is the Unix AI Martian for?

Universities and research labs are the clearest fit. A bipedal platform with open APIs and a dexterous hand gives students and researchers a real machine for studying locomotion, manipulation and embodied AI. Robotics companies and system integrators can use it as a base for prototypes, and technology showcases and training centers can use it to demonstrate what a human-scale robot looks like at work.

If your work happens on level floors and you value a wheeled base, look at the wheeled models in the same family, such as the Unix AI Panther Next-gen Full-size Wheeled Dual-arm Humanoid Robot or the Unix AI Wanda 2.0 Universal Wheeled Humanoid Robot.

What is the Unix AI Martian used for?

1. Research in embodied AI. Perception, large-scale models and a full-body platform in one machine for experiments.
2. Secondary development. High-level and low-level API interfaces let engineers write their own behaviors.
3. Manipulation studies. The 11-DoF hand and 14-DoF arms support work with varied objects.
4. Floor-level pick-up tasks. The robot can squat, bend and lift objects directly from the floor.
5. Teaching and training. A human-scale bipedal robot gives students a hands-on platform for robotics courses.
6. Demonstrations and showcases. A walking humanoid with a dexterous hand draws attention at exhibitions and visits.

Summary

The Unix AI Martian is built for the plain, difficult job of working at human scale: standing, bending, reaching and picking things up from the floor. Its 14-DoF arms, 12-DoF legs and 11-DoF dexterous hand are backed by 40T of computing power, a depth camera, two RGB cameras and an IMU, with APIs open for your own development. If you want a bipedal humanoid for research, training or prototyping, this page is the starting point.
