Asimov 1 is an open-source 1.2 m, 35 kg humanoid robot with 25 actuated degrees of freedom, released under CERN-OHL-S for hardware and GPL-2.0 for software. The repository provides mechanical CAD, electrical CAD, simulation models, a bill of materials, and onboard software so builders can fabricate, assemble, simulate, and customize the robot themselves.
Use cases
- build my own humanoid robot from open-source plans
- self-source and fabricate a bipedal robot from a BOM
- simulate a humanoid robot before building hardware
- research platform for full-body robotic control
- customize an open humanoid robot for experiments
- learn how humanoid robot motion control works
When to choose
- you want a fully open-source humanoid with complete CAD, electrical, and software design files
- you need a research or education platform for bipedal robotics
- you want to modify or extend a serviceable, modular robot design
When to avoid
- you need a ready-made, fully supported commercial robot with polished software out of the box
- you lack fabrication resources - parts require CNC machining and MJF printing, or a $20,000 DIY kit
- you need advanced perception like lidar or 360 cameras, which are not included
