It uses more than 20 robot models, including greeters, musicians, delivery robots, and interactive humanoid robots based on Chinese poets “Su Shi” and “Li Bai.” A later 2.0 version added a robot chef that can cook about 50 Chinese dishes with seasoning precise to 0.1 grams.\n\nThe restaurant is designed as a demonstration site and “living lab” for China's robotics industry. Operators say real restaurant conditions help robot companies gather data and improve their products while showing the public what robots can do in daily life.\n\nBeijing's first robot-themed restaurant, “机器人焰究所,” is real and uses robots to greet, deliver food, play music, and interact with diners.

The report says Max is about 1.5 meters tall, weighs roughly 106 pounds, runs on Nvidia's Jetson Thor chip, has five-fingered hands and a facial-expression screen, and is for internal research rather than sale. Meta told The Information the work is for research and there are no sales plans. Reuters carried the partnership report but said it could not verify it. Neither Meta nor Fourier has published official specs, images, or a launch date for Max.\n\nMeta reportedly sees humanoids as a physical body for its Muse AI agent and wants to accelerate home-robotics work by using Fourier's manufacturing and hardware expertise. Nvidia, whose chip reportedly runs Max, also agreed this week to invest $3 billion in Meta and expand work on Muse, according to [thenextweb.com](https://thenextweb.com/news/meta-humanoid-robot-fourier-max).
