The Xiaomi CyberDog 2 was revealed at the annual Lei Jun speech this week and it’s lighter than ever. At just 19.6 pounds (8.9 kilograms), it comes equipped with the company’s own CyberGear micro-actuator, which further enhances the robot’s mobility and supports high difficulty maneuvers like continuous back flips as well as fall recovery.
Aside from a cutting edge fusion sensing and decision-making system, CyberDog 2 has 19 sensors for vision, touch and hearing. This version has also been made open-source as possible, from coding to structural drawings, as well as providing graphical programming and the modular processing of various sensing capabilities. Other features include an NX chip, 8GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity, and 802.11ac Wi-Fi. Available now in China, priced at around $1,781 USD.
