Peru now has its own humanoid robot: Xpertus, developed by local company Glexco🇵🇪🤖
Billed as the country’s first advanced AI-powered humanoid, it stands about 1.1 meters tall, weighs 60kg, and delivers 4-6 hours of runtime. It features 74-language support, autonomous navigation, object and face recognition, expressive gestures, plus solid payload capacity (120kg standing, over 40kg walking), stair-climbing (20-25cm), and IP67 protection.
Designed for practical applications in education, exhibitions, retail, and corporate reception, Xpertus is a truly application-focused robot.
Notably, Glexco partners closely with Chinese firms like Unitree: China provides the mature hardware platform, while Peruvian engineers lead AI integration, software optimization, and local adaptation.
This marks a key milestone for Peru--and for South America as a whole,shifting from merely importing and showcasing humanoid robots to genuine local development and real-world deployment.
It also highlights how China’s humanoid robotics progress is actively driving development in other regions rather than remaining closed off.
