VinDynamics builds Dyno, its first humanoid robot, with dexterous manipulation, environmental sensing, multilingual communication and flexible responses for real-world use.
Darker bar: ahead of the other company on that measure.
VinDynamics is a distinct company, not a VinMotion alias and not a re-merge candidate. Founded September 2025, chaired by La Manh Hung, it unveiled its own first humanoid, Dyno, on 2026-06-01 at ICRA 2026 in Vienna and Computex Taipei 2026, the same days and venues where VinRobotics showed the VR-H3. Trade coverage that week framed them as two separate humanoid programmes from the same group on parallel tracks, one industrial and one service. The product split is genuine: Dyno is a service humanoid optimised for security and surveillance across urban areas, campuses and integrated service complexes, with a public-facing proof point rather than industrial. It was piloted at Vinpearl Safari Phu Quoc, one of Vietnam's largest semi-wildlife parks, as a robotic guide in a demanding outdoor environment with multilingual narration. VinDynamics claims its own stack: a specialised actuator system, a robotic hand it describes as having internationally benchmarked dexterity, and an AI training dataset optimised for real-world scenarios. Vingroup now runs three separate humanoid companies, VinRobotics, VinMotion and VinDynamics, and the registry carries all three with the overlap noted. Confidence is verified on the separation, verified_light on everything else: no funding, headcount, revenue, unit count or Dyno specifications are published.

XPENG develops the IRON humanoid robot, with advanced degrees of freedom and onboard AI computing for autonomous complex tasks. It plans commercial deliveries in China and overseas markets.
Darker bar: ahead of the other company on that measure.
XPeng Robotics is the humanoid unit of the Chinese automaker, whose IRON robot (76 DoF, three in-house Turing AI chips at 2,250 TOPS combined, synthetic-skin exterior) targets mass production on automotive-grade standards by end-2026, initially deployed in XPeng stores and campuses. It raised >$900M at a >$6.3B post-money (August 2026, IDG-led with strategic Tencent and Alibaba), which it claims is China's largest single-round physical-AI raise, leveraging XPeng's full auto stack (world model, Turing chips) and dealer network. It is pre-revenue (its founder cut open IRON's leg on stage in November 2025 to counter authenticity skepticism).
