Introducing
OpenArm 2.0
Making SOTA reproducible.
OpenArm is a fully open-source humanoid robot arm designed for physical AI research and deployment in contact-rich environments. A unified environment for data collection and reproducible auto-evaluation — the open-source foundation to turn isolated experiments into shared progress.

Fully Open-source

Complete CAD, firmware, control code, and simulation tools openly available.

Teleoperation

Smooth, human-like control with real-time gravity compensation.

Bilateral Force Feedback

Two-way force feedback for contact-rich teleoperation and real-world data collection.

Dexterous, Powerful & Safe Design

Compliant, backdrivable joints enable safe, practical human-centered interaction.

Buy as Kit or Pre-Built

Available as a DIY kit or fully assembled unit.

OpenArm Cell

A reproducible evaluation cell that standardizes background, lighting, cameras, and arm position for fair, automated AI model comparison. "Model A outperforms Model B" only holds meaning when evaluated under identical conditions — OpenArm Cell provides the reproducible infrastructure to make such claims verifiable.

OpenArm Cell CAD design

Standardized Environment

Background, arm position, lighting, and camera placement are all standardized. Any Cell anywhere guarantees identical evaluation conditions.

Lift Mechanism

A lift system moves both arms vertically as a unit, greatly expanding the reachable workspace for tasks at varying heights.

Safety & Long-Term Operation

Light curtains, emergency stops, and upgraded power systems enable safe 24/7 continuous evaluation at scale.

Automated Evaluation

AI models can be automatically evaluated and compared without manual intervention, enabling fair and scalable benchmarking.

Preview · Not in This Release

OpenArm KER

Kinematic Equivalent Replica

A lightweight, shoulder-mounted passive arm with the same kinematic structure as OpenArm — zero actuators, zero resistance. Purpose-built for long-session, high-quality teleoperation data collection.

Same Kinematics

Identical axis configuration, link ratios, and degrees of freedom. 1:1 motion mapping to OpenArm with human-like articulation.

Shoulder-Mounted

Lightweight, wearable design fits naturally on the operator's body for intuitive, high-freedom-of-movement operation.

Zero Fatigue

No actuators means no cogging torque or motor resistance. Operators can collect data for extended sessions without fatigue.

OpenArm KER is a forthcoming product and is not included in this release. Development is ongoing; the release timeline will be announced separately.
