Supply Chain Partners

Open supply chain model for manufacturing and supplying Asimov humanoid robots.

Asimov is an open source humanoid robot with a global customer base across research, education, and commercial applications. We are looking for manufacturing and component partners.

Complexity

A full body humanoid is closer in part count and complexity to an EV car than a robotic arm. Review the Asimov 1 overview and System Tour before deciding if this is a fit.


How It Works

Open supply chain. Similar to LeRobot and OpenArm.

Assign actuator IDs before assembly

Assign and verify all 25 actuator IDs before assembling the robot. The robot will not work correctly with missing or incorrect IDs. IDs must be assigned one actuator at a time on the bench; you may need to disassemble the robot if you skip this step.

Go to Assign Actuator IDs

The override applies to this browser tab only. It does not mark actuator IDs as assigned.
