Its build is meant to be close to ours. According to the official page, Phoenix stands 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighs 155 pounds.

It can carry a maximum payload of 55 pounds, the manufacturer says.

Phoenix is run by Carbon, the company's AI-based control system. For Geordie Rose, co-founder and former CEO of Sanctuary AI, the robot is only a tool serving this software, which he describes as “the real star”.

The version described on this page is the sixth generation of the robot, unveiled by Sanctuary AI on 16 May 2023.
