Core Platform Specs

Compute Platform

RK3588 onboard compute platform~6 TOPS NPU compute for:

Real-time inference
State estimation
Motion scheduling
Safety monitoring

Large-scale training and foundation models can be extended through external compute infrastructure.

Actuation System

Peak rotational speed: 160 RPM (at 48V)
Peak joint torque: 102 N·m

Built for dynamic whole-body motion and high-speed actuation control.

Expansion Interfaces

Ethernet (RJ45)

Designed for developer access, external compute connection, and hardware extensibility.

Full-Stack Open SDK

Features clean and intuitive C++ and Python SDKs that deeply abstract the underlying hardware. The SDKs fully support both languages with rich, ready-to-run code examples and best practices, designed to help researchers and developers ramp up quickly and seamlessly bridge the gap from algorithm validation to real-world deployment.
