EEVE is set to launch Willow X, a groundbreaking humanoid garden robot that learns tasks simply by watching you—no programming required. Users demonstrate a task once, and Willow X copies it; after a few repetitions, the robot can perform the task independently.
Priced at €8,990, Willow X offers a more accessible alternative to comparable humanoid robots that can cost upwards of €40,000, bringing personal robotics within reach for many more people.
Pre-orders begin today on eeve.com, with first deliveries scheduled for August to September this year.
“Willow X makes robot control as easy as training a puppy,” said Wesley Lorrez, CEO of EEVE. “For the first time, anyone can own and train a robot at home and help write the next chapter in robotics.”
Launching amid rapid AI-driven advances in robotics, Willow X empowers everyday users much like early personal computers did decades ago, by enabling hands-on robot customization.
“This is the innovation wave you don’t want to miss,” added Lorrez.
The robot can learn virtually any outdoor or light-duty chore: mowing lawns, weeding, carrying tools or groceries, opening gates, even tidying up toys. Its capabilities are limited only by its hardware, while creativity is left to the user.
Built on EEVE’s proven eOS platform and powered by an Nvidia Orion processor, Willow X connects via Wi-Fi or optional 4G. Equipped with onboard cameras, it observes and mimics user actions, improving with each training session.
Tasks taught by users join a shared community library, allowing anyone to download or contribute “robot know-how.”
“Together, users create the world’s first collaborative robot-training network,” said Lorrez.
“Give the robot a name, and it becomes a member of your family,” said early adopter Lieven Gekiere, a satisfied customer for over a year.
Key Specifications:
- Battery: 600 Wh providing 5-8 hours of work, 3-hour recharge
- Mobility: 4-wheel drive plus steering wheels for rough terrain
- Connectivity: Wi-Fi and optional 4G
- Processor & OS: Nvidia Orion running on eOS
- Arms & Grippers: Two arms, each capable of lifting up to 3 kg
Founded in 2019, EEVE’s mission is to empower people to live self-sufficiently through robotics. With over 3,000 robots active worldwide, EEVE calls Willow X “the next giant leap” toward a future where robots grow food, build furniture, and support independent living.
