SHANGHAI, Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — RoboParty today announced RP1 (ROBOTO 01),
a high-performance, full-stack open-source humanoid platform for robotics research
and embodied AI development. Combining access to core hardware and software with
modular configurations, RP1 enables researchers to examine how the robot works, 
modify its systems and adapt it to their projects.

Researchers need to understand how hardware, control systems and learning algorithms
interact, and how changes across those layers affect physical behavior.

RoboParty believes embodied AI should not be built on technological black boxes:
every researcher should have the freedom to explore. By sharing engineering resources
and development tools, the company aims to make one team’s work a foundation that
others can examine, extend and improve.

**Full-Stack Open Source: From Hardware to Deployment**

RP1’s development stack spans mechanical structures, electronics, ROMOMO actuator
technology, motion control, simulation, training and deployment. Technical documentation
and research materials connect the robot’s physical construction with the software
that turns algorithms into actions.

Sharing these layers lets researchers work beyond predefined interfaces. When physical
behavior differs from an algorithm’s intended output, researchers can investigate
the hardware, control methods and models involved. Access to control interfaces 
and execution feedback supports comparisons between training results and physical
experiments, helping teams identify problems and refine their approaches.

PartyOS, under continuing development by RoboParty Lab, brings together motion control,
motion retargeting and learning tools. Higher-level perception, interaction and 
task capabilities remain subject to further integration and validation, with additional
software components planned for staged open-source release.

**Designed for Research: Adapting the Robot to the Project**

The Standard version stands approximately 1.3 meters tall and has 24 active degrees
of freedom, supporting gait, balance and simulation-to-real research. RP1 Pro has
30 active degrees of freedom, including a two-axis neck and seven axes per arm, 
providing configuration options for end-to-end policy research, human-robot interaction
and embodied data collection. Both counts exclude dexterous-hand degrees of freedom.

Interchangeable head modules and wrist-mounted end effectors, together with the 
RP Hand dexterous hand and expandable computing options, allow teams to configure
the platform around manipulation and model-development experiments. Open-source 
hardware and software resources support modifications as research requirements change.

Teams can compare control methods on the same hardware or retain a method while 
investigating hardware changes. Robot models, software configurations and experiment
records help researchers trace those differences and support repeated testing under
documented conditions.

This gives teams a shared platform for different research questions, while keeping
changes and test conditions visible. Each configuration still requires matching 
models, control settings and validation for the intended task.
