Shenzhen-based robotics company LimX Dynamics has officially unveiled its latest humanoid robot called Luna. The robot made its first public physical appearance at the Taobao Influencer Festival, marking the world\u2019s first live showcase of the platform.<\/p>\n
The unveiling suggests LimX is expanding beyond purely industrial humanoid robotics toward robots designed for broader public interaction, lifestyle, and commercial environments.<\/p>\n
LimX\u2019s previous flagship humanoid, OLI, was known for its industrial metallic silver design and its ability to operate in rugged environments such as construction sites and industrial facilities. <\/p>\n
Luna, however, represents a different direction for the company, featuring what LimX describes as a more lifestyle-oriented aesthetic.<\/p>\n
Agile movement and human-like gait<\/p>\n

The robot employs vision\u2013LiDAR fusion<\/a> and Visual SLAM for navigation in dynamic environments and crowded spaces.<\/p>\n On the OLI platform, LimX uses a computing backpack powered by an NVIDIA AGX Orin chip, while perception computing is handled by an Orin NX module rated at 157 tera operations per second.<\/p>\n The robot operates on a Linux-based software environment using ROS 2 and Python, allowing developers and researchers to build custom interaction scripts, robotics applications, and autonomous behaviors. <\/p>\n LimX Dynamics also stated that Luna is designed for long-term operation and research use, with battery systems intended to support extended development and testing cycles over multiple years.<\/p>\n From industrial robots to public-facing humanoids<\/p>\n The company\u2019s choice to unveil the robot at the Taobao Influencer Festival, particularly during its Influencer Night showcase, suggests LimX may be positioning Luna for service, entertainment, research, or public-facing environments rather than strictly industrial deployment.<\/p>\n The reveal comes shortly after LimX Dynamics secured $200 million in Series B funding to expand its manufacturing capacity and software development. <\/p>\n The company said the investment will support the development of \u201cphysical-world-native\u201d intelligence systems, including its COSA operating system<\/a> designed for real-world robotics applications.<\/p>\n LimX Dynamics has indicated that the official corporate launch and full technical unveiling will take place at a dedicated event in April, where the company is expected to provide more details on Luna\u2019s capabilities and applications.<\/p>\n
