The **Muks Spaceo Pro** is an autonomous, wheeled industrial [humanoid robot](/wiki/humanoid_robots) built by [Muks Robotics](/wiki/muks_robotics), an artificial intelligence and robotics startup in Pune, India. It has an adjustable height of up to 2,100 mm (about 7 feet), a stated 200 kg platform payload, two 7-degree-of-freedom arms, and runs the company's proprietary FusionMax "omni-modal" AI system for perception, speech, task planning, and navigation.[1][2][3] Muks Robotics unveiled the Spaceo Pro alongside the service-focused [Spaceo M1](/wiki/muks_robotics_spaceo_m1) at the India Today Conclave 2025 (held March 7-8, 2025, at Taj Palace, New Delhi, under the theme "The Age of Acceleration"), positioning it as part of what the company calls India's first mass-produced humanoid robot series.[3][4][5]

Most of the Spaceo Pro's published specifications and capability claims originate from Muks Robotics itself and from robot-listing aggregators that republish the company's data sheet; few have been independently tested by third parties. The figures below are therefore attributed to the company unless a separate source is noted. The robot is marketed for manufacturing, logistics, warehouse automation, and healthcare, where Muks Robotics says it can perform autonomous navigation, pick-and-place, palletizing, and material transport.[1][2][3]

## What is the Spaceo Pro?

The Spaceo Pro is the heavy-duty industrial member of Muks Robotics' Spaceo product line, which also includes the [Spaceo M1](/wiki/muks_robotics_spaceo_m1) social humanoid and the in-development Spaceo Prime bipedal robot intended for planetary exploration.[4][5] Rather than walking on two legs, the Spaceo Pro uses a wheeled base topped by a humanoid torso with two arms, a rotating waist, and a sensor head, an arrangement aimed at moving and manipulating heavy loads on flat factory and warehouse floors. Muks Robotics frames it as a response to labor shortages in hazardous environments, pairing heavy payload handling with what it describes as real-time, AI-driven autonomy.[1][4]

Dr. Mukesh Bangar, the company's founder, has summarized the launch with the line, "From concept to reality, Spaceo embodies the future of AI-powered automation."[5]

## Who makes the Spaceo Pro?

The Spaceo Pro is made by Muks Robotics (registered as Muks Robotics AI Pvt. Ltd.), founded in 2021 by Dr. Mukesh Bangar and headquartered in Pune, Maharashtra, India. According to the company, the name "MUKS" stands for Machine Understanding and Knowledge Synthesis, and its stated mission is "to build fully autonomous humanoids for earth and beyond."[6]

Dr. Bangar is the company's Founder, CEO, and CTO and describes himself as a self-taught AI and [robotics](/wiki/robotics) engineer. He holds a Bachelor of Dental Surgery from Government Dental College and Hospital, Nagpur, and worked as a dentist before moving into software and robotics; the company characterizes his prior training as a background in medical science.[6][7] He says he spent over a decade studying core cognitive processes such as consciousness, learning, imagination, reasoning, and machine self-awareness, and he published two papers, *Thinking Circuit* (2013) and *Cognitive Model of Consciousness in Toto* (2017), that he credits as the foundation of the company's approach.[6][8] Before founding Muks Robotics, he developed an AI-based Android operating system that the company says surpassed 100,000 downloads.[6][7]

Muks Robotics describes itself as a full-stack robotics company that conducts research, design, and manufacturing in-house. Beyond its stated corporate mission, Dr. Bangar has framed the work in personal terms: "I firmly believe that true freedom from pain and suffering (Moksh) can be achieved through self-sustaining autonomous robots."[6] He has also said, "The real test of technology is not just performance metrics. It's whether it eases burdens, enables progress, and protects life."[8]

### How big is Muks Robotics?

Muks Robotics is a small, early-stage company. According to startup-intelligence platform Tracxn, Muks Robotics AI Private Limited reported revenue of about Rs 1.97 crore (roughly $2.4 million USD) for the financial year ending March 31, 2025, a figure Tracxn lists with a compound annual growth rate of 1,683% over the prior year. Tracxn ranks the company 25th among 119 active competitors in its humanoid-robotics tracking, and names [Agility Robotics](/wiki/agility_robotics_digit), [Apptronik](/wiki/apptronik_apollo), and [Unitree](/wiki/unitree) among its peers.[9] These financial figures come from third-party database listings rather than audited public filings, so they should be read as indicative rather than definitive.

## When was the Spaceo Pro unveiled?

Muks Robotics publicly unveiled the Spaceo Pro (Gen 1) and the Spaceo M1 at the India Today Conclave 2025, the conference's 22nd edition, held March 7-8, 2025, at Taj Palace in New Delhi under the theme "The Age of Acceleration."[3][4][10] Videos from the event, showing the robots moving, gesturing, and responding to voice prompts, circulated widely on social media and Indian news outlets and brought the company national attention.[3][10]

Muks Robotics' broader timeline, as described by the company, includes the following milestones:[6]

| Year | Milestone (per Muks Robotics) |
| --- | --- |
| 2021 | Company founded in Pune |
| 2022 | Launch of AI Android OS |
| 2023-2024 | Progressive robot development; deployment of AI vision systems to enterprise clients |
| March 2025 | Spaceo Pro Gen 1 and Spaceo M1 unveiled at India Today Conclave 2025, New Delhi |
| 2025-2026 | Continued iteration, with Gen 2 and Gen 3 versions described as in development |

## What are the Spaceo Pro's specifications?

The specifications below are drawn from the Muks Robotics data sheet as republished by robot-listing sites and technology press; they reflect the company's own claims unless otherwise noted.[1][2][11]

### Physical design

The Spaceo Pro has a wheeled humanoid form factor with an adjustable-height torso that extends from a resting height of 1,670 mm to a maximum of 2,100 mm (about 5 feet 6 inches to 7 feet). The robot is listed at 480 mm wide and 450 mm deep, weighing approximately 65 kg including the battery. Muks Robotics says the adjustable-height mechanism lets the robot adapt to different tasks and workstation heights in industrial settings.[1][2][11]

The body uses a modular architecture intended to allow components to be swapped or upgraded without replacing the whole unit. It includes a waist rotation joint with 1 degree of freedom and a stated maximum torque of 66 N*m, which, combined with the adjustable height, is said to give the robot more reach and flexibility than a fixed-frame industrial arm.[1][2]

### Arm and manipulation system

Each of the Spaceo Pro's two arms has 7 degrees of freedom and a span of 580 mm (without gripper). Muks Robotics states each arm can lift up to 10 kg, while the wheeled platform as a whole is rated for a 200 kg payload for transporting heavy loads. The company quotes a positioning accuracy of plus or minus 2 mm, which it says suits pick-and-place and quality-inspection support.[1][2][11]

Each hand has 5 fingers, with 7 degrees of freedom dedicated to hand articulation. The company reports 20 total degrees of freedom across arms, hands, waist, and base, enabling coordinated whole-body motion.[2]

### Actuators

Muks Robotics says the Spaceo Pro uses [harmonic drive](/wiki/harmonic_drive) actuators with double encoders (a dual-encoder servo configuration) across its joints. The company states the dual-encoder design provides redundant position feedback for smoother, more reliable motion, and that harmonic-drive gearing delivers high reduction ratios in a compact package to support the payload while maintaining precision.[1][2]

### Mobility and navigation

The robot is listed as moving on its wheeled base at speeds up to 2 m/s (7.2 km/h, about 4.5 mph). Its navigation system combines 4D [LiDAR](/wiki/lidar) for ultra-wide-angle scanning with an Intel RealSense D435i depth camera for close-range 3D perception. Muks Robotics says this sensor fusion lets the robot build real-time maps, detect obstacles, and navigate dynamic spaces such as factory floors and warehouse aisles.[1][2][12]

## How is the Spaceo Pro's AI and computing built?

### Hardware platform

The Spaceo Pro is listed with an [NVIDIA](/wiki/nvidia) Ampere architecture GPU (2,048 CUDA cores and 64 Tensor cores) rated at 275 TOPS (trillion operations per second) of INT8 inference, paired with an Intel Core i5 CPU, 16 GB of RAM, and a 500 GB SSD. Muks Robotics says this combination runs [computer vision](/wiki/computer_vision), [natural language processing](/wiki/natural_language_processing), path planning, and motor control on-board and in parallel.[1][2][12]

### What is FusionMax?

FusionMax is Muks Robotics' proprietary AI system and the software core of the Spaceo line. The company describes it as an "omni-modal" model that integrates vision, audio, language, and action, and reports that it was trained on over 2 billion parameters as a robotics-native system combining vision, language, audio, and motor planning into real-time responses.[4][5][7] Unlike general-purpose [large language models](/wiki/large_language_model), FusionMax is presented as purpose-built for embodied robotics. The 2-billion-parameter figure and the capability descriptions are company statements that have not been independently benchmarked.

Capabilities that Muks Robotics attributes to FusionMax include:[4][5][7]

- **Autonomous task learning and planning**: acquiring new skills from human demonstrations and trainer feedback
- **Real-time vision and speech recognition**: interpreting camera feeds and audio to understand the environment and operators
- **Autonomous navigation**: building maps and planning efficient paths through dynamic spaces
- **Multilingual communication**: holding natural conversations in multiple languages
- **Offline operation**: running without cloud connectivity, which the company says matters for secure industrial sites, defense use, and remote deployments

The offline, edge-first design ties into the company's space ambitions. Dr. Bangar has said, "Robots will be the first settlers on Mars. They will gather data, prepare habitats, and support human crews that come later. We want those robots to be built here, in India."[4]

### Muks Core B1

Muks Robotics has also publicized the Muks Core B1, which it describes as the world's first [artificial general intelligence](/wiki/artificial_general_intelligence) (AGI) system designed specifically for robots. The company says it consists of a Neural Processing Unit (NPU) plus an AGI software layer intended to serve as the next-generation intelligence backbone across the Spaceo line. This is a forward-looking company claim: specific deployment timelines and independent technical benchmarks for the Core B1 have not been publicly detailed as of early 2026.[5][13]

## What sensors does the Spaceo Pro use?

Muks Robotics lists the following sensor suite for environmental awareness:[1][2][12]

| Sensor | Type | Stated purpose |
|---|---|---|
| 4D LiDAR | Ultra-wide-angle laser scanner | Environmental mapping, obstacle detection, autonomous navigation |
| Intel RealSense D435i | Stereo depth camera | 3D spatial perception and object recognition |
| Microphone array | 4-element array with noise and echo cancellation | Voice command reception and audio awareness |
| Stereo speakers | 5W output | Multilingual speech output and auditory alerts |

According to the company, the 4D LiDAR provides a three-dimensional view of the surroundings, the Intel RealSense D435i adds higher-resolution depth at close range, and the four-microphone array with noise and echo cancellation lets the robot process voice commands in noisy industrial settings.[1][2][12]

## How does the Spaceo Pro compare to the Spaceo M1?

The Spaceo Pro sits alongside the [Spaceo M1](/wiki/muks_robotics_spaceo_m1) in the Spaceo line. The Pro targets heavy industrial work, while the M1 is a lighter, service-oriented social humanoid for customer-facing roles in airports, malls, hospitals, and offices. The two share the FusionMax AI core but differ in physical capability, sensors, and target market.[4][14]

| Feature | Spaceo Pro | [Spaceo M1](/wiki/muks_robotics_spaceo_m1) |
|---|---|---|
| Primary role | Industrial automation | Social interaction and service |
| Height | 1,670 - 2,100 mm | 1,625 mm |
| Weight | 65 kg | 45 kg |
| Total DOF | 20 | 12 |
| Arm DOF | 7 per arm | 5 per arm |
| Platform payload | 200 kg | 50-60 kg |
| Arm payload | 10 kg per arm | Not specified |
| Maximum speed | 2 m/s | 1.5 m/s |
| LiDAR | 4D | 2D |
| Depth camera | Intel RealSense D435i | Intel RealSense |
| CPU | Intel Core i5 | AMD Ryzen 7 |
| AI module | NVIDIA Ampere (275 TOPS) | Jetson Orin AGX (~275 TOPS) or RTX 5070 |

| Motor type | Harmonic drive servo (dual encoders) | Low-inertia BLDC servo |
| Price | Not officially disclosed | Not officially disclosed |
| Target markets | Manufacturing, logistics, warehousing | Hospitality, healthcare, retail, offices |

The M1 adds a 7-inch LED touch display and emotion-recognition features for public-facing interaction, while the Pro's stronger arms, larger payload, 4D LiDAR, and higher degree-of-freedom count are pitched at physical labor in factory and warehouse environments.[4][14]

## What is the Spaceo Prime?

The third variant in the line is Spaceo Prime, a bipedal humanoid under development. Unlike the wheeled Pro and M1, Spaceo Prime is designed for legged locomotion and is described by Muks Robotics as a Mars-ready robot for autonomous exploration, sample collection, environmental analysis, and infrastructure assistance on the Moon and Mars. Company leadership has said it expects the Prime robot to be ready "around 2027-28," while Dr. Bangar frames 2032 as a horizon for full-scale humanoid deployment across sectors from disaster response to planetary exploration.[4][5][15] These are stated targets rather than achieved milestones.

## What is the Spaceo Pro used for?

### Manufacturing and logistics

The Spaceo Pro's primary target market is industrial manufacturing and logistics. With its stated 200 kg payload and 7-DOF arms, Muks Robotics positions it for palletizing, pick-and-place, material handling, and quality-inspection support on factory floors, and for moving materials between workstations and supporting [automated guided vehicle](/wiki/automated_guided_vehicle) operations. The company says early deployments have shown throughput gains and reduced injury risk for human workers, though these outcomes have not been independently published.[1][2][3]

### Healthcare

In healthcare, Muks Robotics markets the Spaceo Pro for patient-support tasks, administrative functions, and service delivery, citing its multilingual interaction and autonomous navigation for transporting supplies and assisting staff across language barriers.[3][12]

### Defense and space

Muks Robotics says it has engaged with India's Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on robotics solutions, including robots for areas inaccessible to humans, though neither agency has published project specifics. The company indicates these defense and space ambitions center on the Spaceo Prime variant, with the industrial Spaceo Pro platform serving as the technology base.[7][8][15]

## Which partnerships and deployments have been announced?

Muks Robotics has named several enterprise clients, mostly for its machine-vision and surveillance products that share the FusionMax architecture rather than for the humanoid itself:[7][8]

- **Tata Motors**: described as the company's first enterprise client, using Muks Robotics' DeepVision Pro machine-vision system for defect detection and quality control in automotive manufacturing
- **Indian Railways**: reported selection for a Mobile Vision Robot autonomous rail-surveillance project
- **Adani Wilmar**: DeepVision Pro for manufacturing quality inspection
- **CG Power**: the WatchMan intelligent video-analytics surveillance platform
- **Parker Hannifin**: DeepVision Pro for industrial quality control
- **Indian Army**: engagement for robotics solutions (details not publicly disclosed)
- **Emirates Airlines**: a pilot in Dubai for service robotics

These are company-reported relationships; Tata Motors, Adani Wilmar, and CG Power are the most consistently corroborated across multiple write-ups.[4][7][8]

## Where does the Spaceo Pro fit in India's robotics ecosystem?

The Spaceo Pro emerged within a growing Indian robotics industry supported by government programs such as the "Make in India" initiative and incentives from the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY).[16] Other active Indian players include Addverb Technologies, a Noida warehouse-robotics company backed by Reliance Industries that has shown humanoid prototypes; Invento Robotics, maker of the Mitra interaction robot; [Genrobotics](/wiki/robotics), known for the Bandicoot sewer-cleaning robot and expanding toward bipedal work; and Kerala-based Asimov Robotics.[16] Muks Robotics distinguishes itself by focusing on industrial-grade humanoids with high stated payload and in-house AI, marketing the Spaceo Pro as a domestically designed and manufactured alternative to imported systems.[7][9]

## How does the Spaceo Pro compare to global humanoids?

In the global [humanoid robot](/wiki/humanoid_robots) market, the Spaceo Pro competes with industrial and general-purpose humanoids worldwide. Its stated 200 kg platform payload sits at the higher end of the spectrum versus many bipedal humanoids, though its wheeled base rules out stair climbing and rough-terrain navigation. Comparable industrial and heavy-payload efforts include [Agility Robotics](/wiki/agility_robotics_digit)' Digit (logistics), [Apptronik](/wiki/apptronik_apollo)'s Apollo (manufacturing), [Unitree](/wiki/unitree)'s humanoids, and a fast-scaling field of Chinese manufacturers.[17] Because the Spaceo Pro's capabilities have mostly been demonstrated in company videos and conference appearances rather than independent trials, direct performance comparisons with these competitors remain difficult to verify.

Muks Robotics has not officially published a price for the Spaceo Pro; figures circulating on some robot-listing sites are not confirmed by the company, so any cost comparison with collaborative robots ([cobots](/wiki/collaborative_robot)) or traditional automation should be treated as unconfirmed.

## ELI5: what is the Spaceo Pro?

Think of a strong robot on wheels, about as tall as a doorway, with two arms and hands that can pick things up. An Indian company called Muks Robotics built it to help in factories and warehouses, lifting and carrying heavy boxes and moving around on its own without bumping into things. A computer brain inside, which the company calls FusionMax, lets it see with cameras and a laser scanner, hear and talk in several languages, and learn new jobs by watching people. The company says it can carry very heavy loads and work even without an internet connection, although most of what we know about it comes from the company's own descriptions rather than outside testing.
