Bionic Actuator Developer Kit

Our new-generation actuator is built from the ground up for humanoid robotics at scale. It integrates precision mechanics, high-efficiency BLDC control, and Series Elastic Architecture (SEA) — making it ideal for advanced R&D, compliant motion, and industrial-grade prototyping.

We’re currently onboarding early partners for pre-release access.
If you’re developing robotics applications and need human-like motion, get in touch — we’ll configure the perfect variant for your use case.

Advanced. Scalable. Human-like.

What’s Inside

  • Bionic actuator module (BLDC + gearbox + SEA)

  • Embedded FOC controller with real-time Kp/Kv tuning

  • Developer interface: CANopen, UART, USB, and RS485

  • Python SDK + ROS2 integration

  • URDF + kinematic templates + STL/CAD files

  • Web GUI for real-time logging and tuning

  • Optional: torque sensor, waterproof housing, and open-frame mounting bracket

Why It Matters

  • Built for humanoids: Designed as the core module for our upcoming legged and arm actuators.

  • Series Elastic: Enables soft, compliant interaction with the world — essential for safety and dexterity.

  • FOC + Impedance: Integrated control stack with real-time tuning of motion dynamics.

  • SDK-ready: Seamless integration with your research stack — ROS2, Isaac Sim, Python, C++.

  • Scalable: Optimised for mass production from day one — not a toy, but a future industry standard.

A full-stack developer kit for researchers, roboticists, and OEM integrators.

Use Cases

  • R&D in compliant motion and physical AI

  • Training humanoid robots with RL or imitation learning

  • Building full-joint prototypes (e.g. hip, shoulder, ankle, elbow)

  • Human-safe grippers and collaborative robots

  • OEM use in wearable robotics or military-grade manipulators

Price & Lead Time

  • €690 – €1,090 per kit (based on configuration)

  • Lead time: ~6–8 weeks (custom builds available for strategic partners)
