SUMMARY:

 

SPACEO M1 is a service‑class humanoid robot developed by Muks Robotics, designed for hospitality, retail, education, airports, offices, and public‑facing environments.  

It features:

 

- 16 degrees of freedom  

- 10‑finger dexterous hands  

- 20–60 kg arm payload  

- 100 kg trunk load capacity  

- 7.2 km/h wheeled mobility  

- FusionMax Omni‑Modal AI (Vision + Audio + Language + Action)  

- 3D LiDAR + RGB cameras + tactile sensors  

 

SPACEO M1 is one of India’s most advanced social humanoids, built for real‑world deployment rather than research labs.

 

EDITORIAL:

 

SPACEO M1 is part of a new wave of affordable, deployable humanoids emerging from India’s robotics ecosystem.  

Where many humanoids focus on bipedal walking, the M1 uses a wheeled base, allowing:

 

- higher speed  

- longer runtime  

- greater payload  

- lower maintenance  

- safer operation in public spaces  

 

Its FusionMax AI enables:

 

- natural speech  

- gesture recognition  

- face tracking  

- autonomous navigation  

- task execution  

- multi‑modal perception  

 

The robot’s 10‑finger hands and 20–60 kg arm payload make it unusually strong for a social robot, allowing it to perform tasks like:

 

- carrying luggage  

- assisting in hospitals  

- handling retail inventory  

- guiding passengers  

- interacting with customers  

 

SPACEO M1 is positioned as a cost‑effective alternative to robots like Pepper, Walker S, and Temi — but with far more strength and capability.
