A new era of logistics robotics is kicking off with Gino 1, the world’s first humanoid robot developed by Geek+ specifically for warehouse operations.

Instead of being a futuristic showpiece, this robot was built from the ground up for real logistics jobs that humans handle every day.

Instead of building a robot that does only one task, Geek+ is aiming for a flexible worker that can slot into multiple roles.

If warehouses had a hiring board, Gino 1 would basically apply for every open position at once.

The Gino 1 humanoid robot can learn from its own experiences

Geek+ already has a strong presence in warehouses worldwide, thanks to its fleets of autonomous mobile robots that move shelves and goods around.

But even in highly automated facilities, humans still handle many of the trickiest jobs, especially picking, sorting, packing, and inspections.

These tasks require fine motor skills, decision making, and the ability to deal with ever-changing products and layouts.

That gap between mobility and true hands-on work is exactly where Gino 1 steps in.

At the heart of the robot is the Geek+ Brain, an embodied intelligence system trained on years of real warehouse data and large-scale simulations.

This brain uses a Vision Language Action model combined with a fast and slow cognitive setup, meaning Gino 1 can both plan tasks at a higher level and react quickly in real time.

In practical terms, it can recognize objects, decide how to handle them, and adjust its movements safely around people and equipment.

The system also improves over time through data feedback, so the robot effectively learns from experience.

These robots are built to enable truly autonomous factories

On the hardware side, Gino 1 comes with multi-eye vision for spatial awareness, dexterous three-finger hands for gripping different items, and force-controlled dual arms designed for steady and safe operation.

Geek+ says the full tech stack is developed in house, with a focus on reliability and cost effectiveness so the robot can be produced at scale.

While many companies already boast flashy prototypes, Geek+ is focusing on producing robots that are specifically meant to be deployed in real facilities.

Within Geek+’s broader ecosystem, Gino 1 works alongside AMR fleets that handle transport and storage, as well as robotic arm picking stations for high-SKU environments.

Together, these systems form a coordinated automation stack that covers most core warehouse workflows.

Currently, more than 70 percent of warehouses still rely heavily on manual labor.

Geek+ is betting that humanoid robots like Gino 1 could be the missing link between partial automation, and truly autonomous operations.
