Keenon Humanoid Robots

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What are KEENON's humanoid robots?

KEENON's humanoid robots are the XMAN-R1 (wheeled humanoid, introduced March 31, 2025) and XMAN-F1 (bipedal humanoid, premiered at WAIC 2025 on July 26, 2025), developed under the Keenon Humanoid brand. Both run on KOM2.0, the world's first Vision-Language-Action (VLA) model for the service industry, developed from real-world data across KEENON's 60-country commercial robot deployment portfolio. The XMAN-R1 has been commercially deployed at the Shangri-La Traders Hotel. The XMAN-F1 demonstrated personalized beverage mixing and popcorn preparation at WAIC 2025, including a Johnnie Walker Blue Label collaboration.

What is KOM2.0 and how does it differ from KEENON ProS?

KOM2.0 is KEENON's proprietary Vision-Language-Action (VLA) model that provides the foundation of general service intelligence for the XMAN humanoid robots. It processes visual perception, natural language instructions, and physical action generation in a unified architecture, trained on real-world service data from KEENON's commercial deployments. KEENON ProS is a domain-specific optimization layer built on top of KOM2.0 for particular deployment verticals, described as "vocational training" that provides specific professional job skills for contexts like hotel operations. KOM2.0 provides broad service competency; KEENON ProS provides the deep domain-specific expertise.

What is the "Robot Role-Orientation" concept?

Robot Role-Orientation is KEENON's proposed commercial deployment framework for humanoid service robots. It "involves deconstructing commercial service scenarios into independent work modules, where each module corresponds to a single, standardized role with clearly defined boundaries and responsibilities, establishing a precise 'Robot-to-Role' correspondence." For buyers, this means identifying the specific service roles they need filled, matching those roles to standardized robot role specifications, and deploying with confidence in defined performance expectations rather than managing ambiguity about a general-purpose robot's varied task performance.

What was the XMAN-F1's Johnnie Walker Blue Label collaboration at WAIC 2025?

KEENON's WAIC 2025 official press release described: "The bar area features a highlight collaboration with Johnnie Walker Blue Label, the world's leading premium whisky, where robotic bartenders work alongside delivery robot T10 to craft and serve bespoke beverages." The XMAN-F1 performed the beverage preparation tasks while the T10 delivery robot handled distribution. This collaboration with a globally recognized luxury whisky brand at China's most prestigious AI conference provided implicit brand-level validation of the XMAN-F1's operational quality and guest-facing appropriateness.
