Blue Worm (西安蓝虫具身智能科技有限公司)

Blue Worm, also rendered in translation as Blue Insect Embodied, is a 2025 spin-out of Xi'an Jiaotong University. The company sells the modular wheeled humanoid Mantis Standard from 9,800 CNY, which according to trade press in September 2026 makes it one of the cheapest robots of its kind.

Modules such as arms, chassis, waist and head are available separately, and the software builds on ROS 2 and MoveIt 2. Customers are universities, data-collection teams and service companies. The company website carried no content, so the data comes from Chinese technology media.
