Galbot ET1, sold in Chinese as 银河星仔, is a small bipedal humanoid built for entertainment and performance and marketed as the world's first native-agent robot. It stands 1250 mm, weighs 32 kg with its battery and is wrapped in flexible material, with motors supplied by Unitree Robotics, and it was developed jointly by Galbot and a team from Tsinghua University. Its defining claim is architectural. A conventional robot bolts a large-model API onto a finished hardware controller, so decisions and motion control run as two systems and react slowly to sudden physical events; ET1 instead designs neural-network inference and closed-loop motor control inside one timing framework at the real-time operating system and motion-control level, so thinking and acting propagate almost simultaneously. The company says that when the robot is pushed or the floor slips it adjusts its gait and replans within milliseconds, like a human cerebellar reflex, and that the same brain can be injected into biped, wheeled and heavy-duty bodies, an idea it calls one brain, many abilities. The motion comes from a 100-million-parameter Transformer motion foundation model, and the behaviour from AstraBrain-WBC, a general-purpose whole-body-control cerebellum foundation model trained on 100,000 hours of human motion data. That training is what lets ET1 learn without motion capture or demonstration video: it watches people, extracts movement trajectories on site, and adds new skills through interaction. The published specification table gives a stereo camera for visual perception, an RK3588 plus RDK X5 main processor, and Orin Nano at 40 TOPS on the Pro tier or NX at 100 TOPS on the Flagship tier. Three configurations are priced at 79,000, 139,000 and 179,000 yuan: Standard 26 degrees of freedom for dancing, performance and conversation, Pro adding active learning, dynamic reasoning and motion planning, and Flagship aimed at secondary development. Dexterous hands are an option on Pro and Flagship rather than standard, taking those tiers to 38 degrees of freedom and pushing the real price above the headline. Pre-orders opened on 3 September 2026 after a debut at the 2026 World Robot Conference, and Chinese coverage reports more than 200 units ordered on the first day.
