Below is the overall image of AIDOL. It has a human-like design and comes with movable arms and legs.

AIDOL's official website claims that it can walk at a speed of 6km per hour and carry a load of 10kg.

They can also use their dexterous fingers to sort things.

A video posted on the official website shows him walking with the support of an assistive device.

Below is a video recording of the unveiling event in Moscow.

AIDOL slowly walks onto the stage.

AIDOL loses balance.

I collapse forward with a thud.

He was unable to regain his balance and fell over.

Staff stopped AIDOL from working.

There appears to be a handle on the back for lifting.

It takes two people to cause AIDOL.

Another staff member attempts to cover the stage with a black cloth.

It looked like it was done in a hurry, and the fabric was twisted.

The hidden stage.

There is also a video taken from a different position. It seems that the Rocky theme was playing in the venue.
