Gasgoo Munich-June 25 marked the opening of the OPPO Technology Launch and Supply Chain Expo at the OPPO Binhai Bay Park. UBTech stole the spotlight with the global debut of its new Cruzr Y1 wheeled industrial humanoid robot. The machine demonstrated a full cycle of box unstacking and palletizing on site, emerging as the centerpiece of the exhibition’s industrial humanoid sector.

Built specifically for industrial settings, the Cruzr Y1 targets the flexibility challenges of loading, unloading, and sorting totes and cartons. It addresses core manufacturing pain points that plague traditional automation—specifically, the tendency to halt over slight material misalignment, lengthy changeover cycles, and the inability to perform more than a single task. On the technology front, the robot runs on domestic Digua S100P and S600 series computing chips. Built on a proprietary hardware architecture and the ROSA software system, it integrates a Vision-Language-Action (VLA) algorithm to establish a self-developed barrier spanning everything from core components to scenario-specific algorithms.
In terms of mobility, the Cruzr Y1 features 360° omnidirectional wheels and a vertical lifting module, allowing it to navigate tight workshop spaces with agility. Its arms utilize integrated harmonic joint modules with torque sensors, balancing precision with payload capacity. A multi-sensor network—including lidar and depth cameras embedded in the head, wrists, and chassis—creates a 360° perceptual field, enabling the robot to automatically slow or halt when obstacles appear, ensuring operational safety. For endurance, a high-capacity lithium battery delivers over four hours of operation at full load. The system supports both automatic charging and rapid battery swapping, meeting the demands of 24-hour shift cycles.
To handle real-world complexities like shifting boxes or misaligned pallets, the Cruzr Y1 leverages 3D vision and embodied intelligence decision-making. This allows for autonomous recognition and dynamic adaptive adjustment, enabling the robot to manage disordered working environments with ease. Meanwhile, UBTech is opening up its full-stack technology ecosystem. The company provides a complete suite of SDKs, vision recognition, and motion control development interfaces, alongside a multi-machine scheduling platform. This system integrates with existing factory manufacturing infrastructure, facilitating the secondary development of customized production line solutions.
