Overview
SwitchBot's first humanoid, shown at CES 2026. It has a humanoid upper body with two arms and hands on a wheeled base, with 22 degrees of freedom in total. Its Omni Sense VLA model is meant to handle chores such as folding laundry, clearing dishes and tidying tables. SwitchBot pitches it as working alongside its robot vacuums, with the vacuum cleaning the floor while H1 cleans above it. The arms are also sold separately as the onero Robotic Arm A1. SwitchBot says it keeps learning from real-world data and simulation training.
