Xinyan Robotics launches family agent Babu, priced at 9,499 yuan
What happened
Xinyan Robotics launched its embodied family agent "Babu (Bubbo 1)" on October 29, 2026. Built on its self-developed Bubbo OS, it creates a "Family Agent" that can recognize family members and pay attention to relationships among them. The product is sold through official channels including JD.com, priced at 9,499 yuan, with a pre-order price of 7,999 yuan for the first 1,000 customers. Babu is 65 cm tall with a plush exterior, carries 13 categories and 26 sensors, has 6 degrees of freedom and two expression screens on the output side, and supports autonomous movement and automatic recharging. It focuses on emotional companionship rather than housework, and features built-in camera-based non-medical-grade heart rate detection, with data sharing in partnership with the Cecce smart ring; it also offers bilingual tiered conversation, generation of family biographies for elderly users, and fall detection with push notifications. Xinyan says that, apart from content users actively view, video is first processed irreversibly locally before being transmitted to the cloud, and users can delete imagery at any time. Xinyan says this pricing is intended to exchange for real user feedback at as low a price as possible; the software is planned to be upgraded 1–2 times per month, and the first-generation product is meant to collect real household data.
