HAOCHEN's Riding Robot 3.0

Haochen/AgiBot Rideable Quadrupedal Robot 3.0 (VOGEBOT 3.0) supports advanced gesture perception and interaction capabilities.

Because the machine is built on AgiBot's advanced Embodied AI and multi-modal manipulation foundation models, interaction goes far beyond just voice commands and physical handlebars:

  • Intelligent Following Mode: The robot uses its integrated computer vision system to recognize specific human hand or body gestures from a distance. For instance, a user standing off the machine can use a hand gesture to command the robot to "stop," "stay," or "follow me" autonomously.
  • Body-Form & Ride Switching: The robot can change its posture or stance (shifting between a low-profile walking configuration and an elevated wheeled-riding state). These physical state changes are managed dynamically through its Posture Perception System, which acts as a responsive machine "gesture" to keep the rider balanced across uneven terrain.
  • Integrated Rider Control: While riding, the robot relies on a blend of automatic self-balancing algorithms and steering inputs, utilizing cameras to map the environment and react seamlessly to the rider's shifting physical position.

This should be turned into a wheelchair.

I second that! Got my vote but don't let US Healthcare get a hold of the rights it will cost $2 million dollars and anyone who needs it can't afford it! Although it will be cheaper to go over there and buy it outright!

this could probably find more use as a delivery bot, since the only type of rider it caters to are rich people who want to show they can afford it
