AeiROBOT and Advantech Unveil Alice, a Semi-Humanoid Industrial Robot
- AeiROBOT launched the Alice M1, a semi-humanoid industrial robot powered by Advantech's AFE-R360 edge computing board.
- The Alice M1 performs precise tasks at variable heights and in confined industrial spaces using real-time sensor fusion and multi-sensor input.
AeiROBOT introduced the Alice M1, a wheeled semi-humanoid robot developed with Advantech for use in industrial settings. It combines hardware from AeiROBOT with computing technology from Advantech.

The Alice M1 stands up to 180 cm tall, weighs 97 kg, and includes 31 degrees of freedom, with 7DoF arms, 6DoF hands, and an adjustable waist that moves both vertically and horizontally. This design allows it to operate in tight spaces and perform tasks at different working heights. Its sensor suite, which includes stereo cameras, 3D LiDAR, laser sensors, and IMUs, enables autonomous navigation using SLAM. The robot is powered by Advantech’s AFE-R360 board, a compact, power-efficient system based on Intel Core Ultra processors. Built specifically for robot control, the platform supports real-time sensor fusion, broad sensor input, and AI-driven processing, with integration tools tailored for robotics development.

Alice is built for repetitive tasks in manufacturing, with mobility that supports work in tight spaces and at different heights. It reflects AeiROBOT’s focus on humanoid systems and uses Advantech’s edge computing and industrial IoT technology. Its design aims to reduce inefficiencies and improve safety in factory environments.
🌀 Tom’s Take:
Advantech’s platform combines low-power computing with wide sensor support, helping robots like Alice work reliably in complex, sensor-heavy environments.
