Build your own imitation learning robotic arm with the optimized version: SO-ARM101! Designed for LeRobot and Hugging Face projects, these kits include servo motors, adapter board, and cables. Open-source, low-cost, and DIY-friendly—perfect for robotics enthusiasts and developers. Start prototyping today with our comprehensive resources! Noted that the motor kit does not include 3D-printed parts. If you do need them, please order the 3D-printed skeleton and motor kit together. Otherwise, the 3D-printed parts will not be included.

What's news：

Wiring optimization: Compared to SO-ARM100, SO-ARM101 features improved wiring that prevents disconnection issues previously seen at joint 3. The new wiring design also no longer limits the range of motion of the joints.

Different gear ratios for the leader arm: The leader arm now uses motors with optimized gear ratios, improving performance and eliminating the need for external gearboxes.

New functionality support: The leader arm can now follow the follower arm in real-time, which is crucial for the upcoming reinforcement learning (RL) policy, where a human can intervene and correct the robot’s actions.

Features of SO-ARM 10x Sereies:

1. Open-source and low-cost: It is an open-source, low-cost robotic arm solution from TheRobotStudio.

   Integration with LeRobot: Designed for integration with LeRobot platform which offers PyTorch models, datasets and tools for reinforcement learning and imitation learning for real-world robotics applications (including data collection, simulation, training and deployment).

   Abundant learning resources: Provides comprehensive open-source learning resources like assembly and calibration guides, and tutorials for testing, data collection, training and deployment to assist users in quickly getting started and developing robotic applications.

   Compatible with Nvidia: Deploy this arm kit with reComputer Mini J4012 Orin NX 16 GB.

Imitation learning and Reinforcement learning

The LeRobot framework is compatible with the SO-ARM10x robotic arm. It provides complete data collection, training, and deployment for teaching the robotic arm, and also has a comprehensive simulation platform. On the Nvidia Jetson edge device, it's easy and quick to train a customized robotic arm to complete grasping and placing tasks. For detailed tutorials, please refer to: LeRobot - NVIDIA Jetson AI Lab
