The best part about the CyberOne is that it features 21 degrees of freedom when it comes to working on different motions and it has the capability of achieving a real-time response of 0.5ms for each degree of freedom. With this, Xiaomi can claim that the humanoid is capable enough to simulate human movements.

Adding more details about the humanoid’s capabilities, it comes for the support for bipedal motion posture balancing and can generate and reach a torque of 300NM.

There are more such features Xiaomi has added here including Mi-Sensor depth vision which comes with the latest AI interacting algorithm which enables the robot to perceive into 3D space and recognize individuals, human expressions, and gestures. [3]
