Wuxi robotics spinout of Harbin Institute of Technology building the open XGO quadruped and RIG desktop robot platforms.
Wuxi Luwu Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., trading as Luwu Dynamics, is a robotics company founded in November 2020 in Wuxi, Jiangsu province, by a core team originating from the State Key Laboratory of Robotics Technology and System at Harbin Institute of Technology. The company focuses on desktop-scale embodied-AI and bionic robots, positioning its work at the intersection of academic robotics research and accessible, classroom-ready hardware. Luwu Dynamics has built an open robotics platform under the XGO brand that is documented publicly through an online knowledge base, and the company states that its products are used by more than 300 schools across China and have been exported to more than 20 countries.
The company's flagship line is the XGO series of quadruped robot dogs, which includes the XGO-lite3 and XGO-mini2S four-legged walking robots as well as the XGO-mini2SW, a wheel-legged hybrid variant that combines wheeled and legged locomotion, and the XGO-Rider2, a two-wheeled self-balancing robot. Alongside the XGO line, Luwu Dynamics sells a companion RIG series of desktop robots aimed at everyday interaction and light manipulation tasks: RIG-Puppy is a small desktop companion robot, RIG-Arm is a five-axis desktop robotic arm intended for manipulation experiments and teaching, and RIG-Hover is a twin-wheel self-balancing desktop robot. Across both product families, the company emphasizes omnidirectional movement, multi-axis attitude control, and stability as core mechanical capabilities.
Luwu Dynamics positions its hardware primarily for STEM education, robotics competitions, and academic research platforms, reflecting its origin inside a university robotics laboratory rather than an industrial-automation background. The open nature of the XGO platform, with published documentation and a hosted knowledge base for developers, supports the company's education and research-platform application areas by letting students, hobbyists, and researchers extend the robots' behavior in software rather than being limited to fixed factory programs.
The company is privately held; no public disclosures of funding rounds, headcount, or a stock listing were found on its corporate materials. Luwu Dynamics is registered in Jiangsu province, holds a filed Internet content-provider registration under Jiangsu's regulatory regime, and can be reached through its published support email address. The company's online presence is centered on its product website, which documents the XGO and RIG hardware lines, and a separate technical-documentation site used for developer and customer support.
