MagicBot Z1 is MagicLab's agile compact humanoid, launched in July 2025 to challenge the dominance of established research platforms while opening humanoid robotics to commercial applications. Standing 140 cm and weighing 40 kg, the Z1 features 24 foundational degrees of freedom expandable up to 49 DoF, powered by self-developed high-performance joint modules delivering 130+ N·m peak torque and joint ranges up to 320°. With 3D LiDAR, depth cameras, and binocular cameras integrated with MagicLab's proprietary navigation system, the Z1 autonomously navigates flat ground, grass, gravel, and stairs. Optional MagicHand dexterous hands (11 DoF, 5 kg lift) extend its manipulation capabilities. Developers can train a completely new robot action in just 20 minutes using MagicLab's multi-source database, making it among the fastest platforms for skill development in the industry.
