HELIOS
Model: helios
HELIOS is ORBIT Robotics' four-armed space humanoid research prototype from the ETH Focus Project ORBIT, built for microgravity and orbital operations rather than walking on Earth. ORBIT's official reveal video describes a complete space humanoid with four arms and four hands, while ORBIT's site frames HELIOS as astronaut-assistance hardware for station logistics, cargo handling, maintenance, research, and EVA support. Independent coverage corroborates the legless four-arm architecture, tendon/cable-driven actuation, five-finger hands, roller-contact elbow concept, and current prototype status; public price, retail availability, dimensions, battery details, and operational deployment timing are not disclosed.
