► Starting from Urban Villages, Forging a Path of Full-Stack Independent R&D
"We are a technology company that grew from an incubation base in urban villages, and being down-to-earth and focused is our fundamental trait," said Kelly, co-founder of High Torque, at the beginning of the report.
Over five years, the team has dedicated itself to in-depth research. Starting from the first joint module adapted for small robots, it has gradually built a full-stack technology chain covering core hardware, main control cores, and motion control algorithms, ultimately achieving a complete closed loop from R&D to production. It had no glamorous starting point, but it has taken solid steps. Rooted in this seemingly ordinary entrepreneurial soil, HighTorque has grown step by step into a world-leading humanoid robot company with its pragmatism and focus.

More notably, the Mini Pi+ equipped with a voice module engaged in smooth conversational interactions with the deputies, demonstrating the broad possibilities of humanoid robots in intelligent interaction. The platform supports the connection and integration of multiple external sensors, enabling the robot to possess richer overall perception capabilities.

► Core Support: Fully Self-Developed and Self-Manufactured Hardware
These stable, agile, and intelligent performances all stem from HighTorque’s mastery of core underlying technologies. The staff gave the deputies a detailed introduction to the company’s self-developed high-performance joint modules, which adopt a multi-layer nested planetary reduction mechanism. Despite their compact size, these modules can deliver powerful torque—this is precisely the source of the robots’ strong motion capabilities.

The inspection visit by the delegation of the National People's Congress is both an affirmation and a strong inspiration for HighTorque. HighTorque will further focus on the in-depth R&D and iteration of core technologies, and continuously drive its products to evolve toward greater stability, higher intelligence, and enhanced user-friendliness. From urban villages to the forefront of smart manufacturing, HighTorque has always maintained the pragmatism and enthusiasm it had at the start of its entrepreneurship. Taking steady steps forward, the company is firmly advancing toward the future vision of "enabling everyone to own a humanoid robot" and contributing to building a world-leading Chinese robot brand.
