HIVA Haiwa is a wheeled humanoid developed by Haier in China. Weighing around 70 kg, it pairs a dexterous human-scale upper body with a mobile base, positioning it as a domestic and hospitality assistant for smart homes and service environments.
The Haier HIVA Haiwa articulates across 44 degrees of freedom, with all-electric actuators spanning its arms, hands and mobile base for high-precision motion. Machine vision and tactile sensors handle object recognition, environment perception and safe manipulation, enabling reach extension, picking and delicate handling. Its closed-source software currently relies on remote teleoperation to gather machine-learning data, with AI-based autonomous operation in development, so today's deployments blend supervised control with steadily growing autonomy.
Haier targets cleaning, cooking, home assistance and hospitality, where the robot can tidy, help with laundry and support kitchen and service tasks in homes, hotels and similar settings. Its dexterity and mobility make this humanoid robot a candidate for assisted-living, premium-residential and high-touch service scenarios that want to automate routine chores while keeping a human-scale presence.
Nexon System deploys HIVA Haiwa across Southeast Asia, handling commissioning, task programming, integration with smart-home, facility or hospitality systems, and operator training with ongoing support. We define the household or service tasks, set up the teleoperation and supervision workflow, and connect the robot to the systems your property already uses.
