Overview
- SwitchBot pitches Onero as a general-use helper capable of grasping, pushing, opening, and organizing while adapting to new tasks and home scenarios.
- A prerelease video shows the robot making coffee and breakfast, washing windows, loading a washing machine, and folding and putting away clothes.
- The design features articulated arms and hands on a wheeled base rather than legs, reflecting an upper-body humanoid approach to home mobility.
- According to the company, 22 degrees of freedom and multiple onboard cameras feed an on-device OmniSense vision‑language‑action model that fuses visual, depth, and tactile cues.
- Preorders are slated to open on SwitchBot’s website with pricing undisclosed, and the robot is intended to orchestrate the company’s existing vacuums and other smart-home devices.
