Summary

The Knowin-X1 is a dual-arm home robot on wheels whose party trick is folding: the body collapses in three sections to a height of 40 cm or less, so it can be stowed in a cupboard when not needed. Its maker, Shenzhen Knowin Intelligent, sits in the Shenzhen Bay technology park and employed more than 150 people as of June 2026.

Each arm has seven axes and the body offers 23 degrees of freedom in total; the two arms together lift 6 kg and the robot weighs 50 kg. Perception fuses a camera, a depth camera and LiDAR, backed by multi-level obstacle avoidance.

Software is built around GLOW, short for Generative Learning of World, Knowin's own generative world model, which is meant to support tidying up, laundry handling, home monitoring and fine manipulation. The maker quotes 10 hours of standby but no active runtime, and it does not publish the unfolded height, the gripper type, a sales status or a price, so the robot is on request.

A legged alternative for the home is the 1X NEO.
