The Atom is a full-size bipedal humanoid (about 153-165 cm depending on source) from Dobot, a listed collaborative-robot company. Pre-sales started in March 2025 at CNY 199,000 (about USD 27,500); the company reports mass production and a third delivery batch by February/March 2026. EU dealers list Atom variants between about EUR 44,000 and EUR 86,500. No customer deployment is independently verified: the only real-world test is a distributor's own evaluation at Terra Robotics in Löhne.
Our verdict
A purchasable, comparatively cheap industrial biped from an established hardware company, but with no verified customer; treat deployment claims as unproven.

| Terra Robotics / Terra Connect GmbH Per Interesting Engineering, a team at Terra Robotics put a newly delivered Atom to work in Löhne after unboxing; the article gives no unit count and does not name the end customer or tie Terra Connect GmbH to the delivery (that link rests on a LinkedIn post by its managing director). Found stable, repeatable movement in structured settings but limited adaptive autonomy. Not an end-customer deployment. | Löhne, Germany | Pilot | Feb 2026 | interestingengineering.com |
