Galbot G1 Embodied Robot and AstraBrain Models

Galbot (Chinese name 银河通用机器人) develops general-purpose embodied robots and robot foundation models. The website, in Chinese with a 2026 copyright, lists the ET1, G1 and S1 robots and the AstraBrain model family; its founding year and headquarters are not stated.

AstraBrain combines WAM (general brain model), WBC (whole-body control) and Dex (dexterous hand world model) for long-horizon planning and whole-body control. A developer platform allows secondary development, and a September 2026 news item describes human-robot collaboration at Shanghai Laobaixing Pharmacy.

• ET1, G1 and S1 robots: embodied robot lineup listed on the site.
• AstraBrain-WAM: general brain model for decision-making.
• AstraBrain-WBC: whole-body control model acting as the robot cerebellum.
• AstraBrain-Dex: world model for dexterous hand manipulation.
• Developer platform: secondary development environment for partners.

Shelf stocking and order assistance in pharmacy chains. Restaurant and supermarket service tasks. Research platforms for embodied AI teams.

Real deployment in pharmacy retail shows applicability to store operations. Model family covers brain, whole-body control and dexterous hands. Developer platform supports customisation. Competition results in household, restaurant and supermarket tasks indicate breadth.

Retail and pharmacy chains are testing robots for shelf and customer-facing tasks as labour costs rise. Vietnamese drugstore and supermarket chains are expanding quickly and may look at similar pilots.
