- Developers say the robot performs bipedal locomotion, object manipulation and directed human communication with expressive mimicry.
- All systems are described as operating fully offline, with on-board speech synthesis and control, and a stated battery life of up to six hours.
- Technical details cited by the team include 67 degrees of freedom, 19 facial servos enabling at least 12 emotions, a seven-microphone array, two stereo cameras and an IMU, a payload of up to 10 kg and a walking speed of up to 6 km/h.
- Aidol was trained in simulation and on collected datasets with on-board self-learning, using in-house servers in Moscow and rented Russian cloud capacity, and developers are targeting industrial, logistics and public-service deployments; independent testing and timelines were not reported.
