Tianji’s Humanoid Body Selected for NVIDIA GR00T 2, Self-Developed Dexterous Hand Debuts at CoRL 2026

At CoRL 2026, Tianji introduced a self-developed dexterous hand aimed at fine manipulation in humanoid robotics, with potential use in grasping, assembly, and other complex tasks. The company says the hand is designed to integrate more tightly with embodied AI software stacks, giving researchers and industrial users an in-house end-effector option. Separately, Tianji’s humanoid robot body was selected for NVIDIA’s GR00T 2 platform, signaling closer collaboration between humanoid hardware developers and foundation-model ecosystems. Tianji positions the combination as a step toward scalable development of general-purpose robots, where hardware and AI models are co-designed for real-world deployment.
