A successor to H6, this is a full-body, lightweight humanoid for research in real-world, dynamic interaction.
The H7 is a landmark research platform from the JSK Lab, standing 147 cm tall and weighing 57 kg. Running on RT-Linux, it was one of the first humanoids to demonstrate real-time perception-action coupling, integrating head-mounted stereo vision with 6-axis force sensors in the feet. Its historical significance lies in its role as a centralized system for debugging the complex balance and motion algorithms used today.

Exclusively utilized by JSK Lab and AIST for high-level bipedal research.
Academic institutions and government agencies developing future disaster response protocols.
Building on the H5 and H6 platforms from JSK Lab, the H7 introduces real-time online gait generation and a denser 3D LiDAR suite. This allows for significantly more reliable navigation through cluttered, multi-room laboratory environments compared to the fixed-path predecessors.
Leg and hip design mimic human skeletal geometry.
Arm placement allows work on human-height surfaces.
Supports gait patterns similar to human locomotion.
