About

Beijing Institute of Technology Harbit (HARIBIT) was founded in September 2015 as a robotics spinoff of Beijing Institute of Technology (BIT). Its technology lineage traces to BIT's humanoid robotics laboratory, one of the earliest in China: the team built the first-generation "Huitong" biped in 2002 and completed the fifth generation by 2014. The company develops robot core components (frameless torque motors, integrated joints, precision reducers, servo motors) together with complete humanoid, quadruped and embodied-manipulation robots and system solutions, marketed as an "N+M+1" product matrix. Products address special-operations scenarios (disaster rescue, municipal maintenance, field surveying), power-line and outdoor inspection, home healthcare and commercial services; representative products include the SR02 special-operations humanoid, the XR01 all-weather quadruped inspection robot, multi-configuration composite lifting robots and a pneumatic lower-limb soft exoskeleton. Led by founder and chairman Zhang Weimin and general manager She Haotian, the company is a national high-tech enterprise and a Beijing "specialized, refined, distinctive and innovative" SME, holds a Class II medical device registration certificate and GJB weapons quality-management certification, and has led two national key R&D program projects. It closed an angel round in October 2024 and a nearly RMB 100 million Pre-A round in May 2026 (led by Jishi Venture Capital with Shenzhen Capital Group and Fangguang Capital). The company says channel orders exceed RMB 100 million, with revenue and order volume doubling for two consecutive years, and has set up wholly owned subsidiaries in Wuhan (Guanggu Huahui) and Aksu as well as a joint special humanoid laboratory with iSoftStone.

Development Timeline

2002
BIT humanoid team achieved the first-generation "Huitong" biped breakthrough, covering bionic mechanisms, stable bipedal walking, complex motion design and high-speed visual servoing.
2014
Completed development of the fifth-generation "Huitong" humanoid robot, closing the technology-accumulation stage.
2015
Founded in Beijing with roots in Beijing Institute of Technology
2016
Started in-house development of core components (servo motors, reducers, integrated joints) and iterated "Huitong" generations 6 and 7, breaking through rigid-flexible coupled motion control and voice interaction.
2020
Cumulative R&D investment exceeded RMB 200 million with core components entering batch production; obtained a Class II medical device registration certificate and a special-robot supply-chain award for its electric-drive joint system; received a "humanoid robot pilot-scale platform" plaque from BIT's technology transfer center.
2022
Eighth-generation "Huitong" robot deployed in special environments; core components entered industrial and healthcare industries; obtained GJB weapons quality certification and ranked first in MIIT's humanoid robot "open competition" list.
2024
Bipedal robot for industrial inspection applications
2024
Jointly established the "iSoftStone Tianhui Special Humanoid Robot Laboratory" with iSoftStone, unveiled on 2024-09-02.
2024
Wholly owned subsidiary Wuhan Guanggu Huahui was established (2024-09) for regional development and delivery of special humanoid robots.
2024
Completed an angel round in October 2024 with Shenzhen Capital Group, iSoftStone and Fangguang Capital participating.
2025
Established an innovative-robotics business unit (2025-02) to advance new product lines.
2025
Wholly owned subsidiary Aksu Huahui was established (2025-07) to serve high-altitude and cold-region special operations in Xinjiang.
2026
Announced a nearly RMB 100 million Pre-A round on 2026-05-26, led solely by Jishi Venture Capital with Shenzhen Capital Group and Fangguang Capital as co-investors; proceeds fund product iteration, mass production, business expansion and R&D hiring.
2026
Presented its full "N+M+1" matrix of self-developed special humanoid, composite lifting, quadruped and soft-exoskeleton products at the Guangzhou Digital Intelligence Future Expo (2026-06-03 to 06-05, Canton Fair Complex Zone D).
2026
Won the lead role in a MIIT-approved national key R&D program project on bionic inspection robot systems for high-altitude environments, with total project funding of RMB 62 million; the project requires autonomous inspection of over 8 hours per day above 4,500 m altitude and 15 days of fault-free operation.
2026
Subsidiary Wuhan Guanggu Huahui exhibited at WAIC 2026 in Shanghai (booth H3-208, July 2026) under the theme "intelligent partners, a shared future".
2026
Appeared at the 2026 World Robot Conference under the theme "toward extreme environments", showing multi-form robots including SR02 and XR01 and previewing the next-generation humanoid robot SR10.
