Adam Lite is the entry variant of PNDbotics' Adam humanoid series, and it is deliberately the simple one. It shares the family's fundamentals: 1.67 m tall, 60 kg, walking at up to 1.5 metres per second on two legs with 6 degrees of freedom per leg and a 3 degree-of-freedom waist, knee and hip torque around 340 newton metres, a 1172 watt-hour battery, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0, and an Intel NUC12WSKi7 computer running the company's own whole-body control and model predictive control algorithms for balance. Where it differs is what it does not have. It carries no perception and AI computer and no depth camera, and its arms stop at 5 degrees of freedom per side with a spherical hand rather than a wrist and dexterous fingers, which is what keeps the total at 25 degrees of freedom against 29 on the Standard, 41 on the SP and 43 on the Pro. That makes it the platform for buyers who want the motion and control stack, the SDK and the actuators without paying for sensing or manipulation they do not need, and for development, education and custom builds where a team supplies its own perception and end effectors. The series as a whole is produced at a stated annual capacity of several hundred units at the company's Tianjin centre, is exported to Europe, North America, Japan and South Korea, and has been adopted by Skild AI in the United States as the standard whole machine for its model training.
