Our blueprint for the "Optimal Universal Robot":
❌ Legs: Too complex, too expensive. ✅ Wheels: Fast, stable, 10x cheaper.
❌ Rotary Joints: Massive torque stress, custom gears. ✅ Of the shelf parts & linear actuators: High payload, extrem simplicity, off-the-shelf parts.
A humanoid robot just beat a human in a 10-hour pick-and-place stream. No breaks, no fatigue, pure efficiency. But at $100k+, the price tag is holding back a massive corporate shift.
The real question: Do we actually need humanoids for this?

@gs_ai_ It's awesome, but how the digital tween was done on this video? We can not find that in your repo. Btw. does your simulation engine work with closed loop invers ekinematics like ours? thank you
The actual cost of humanoid robots (a few kilograms of payload). Would you buy one, or would you prefer to try our universal mobile manipulator design? :)
Working on connecting Nav2, and MoveIt in ROS for the most efficient and convenient "pick and place" solution in universal robotics. What do you think?

Exciting news! 🚀 We’ve released the first Motion Planning & ROS package for our open-source mobile manipulator.
Select an object & a shelf—the system calculates the optimal base, arm, and hand trajectories for seamless pick-and-place. 🤖🦾

Think humanoids are the only way to conquer stairs? Think again. 🤖🚀
New universal mobile manipulators are proving that wheels can climb too
