OriginBot

OriginBot is an open-source kit for intelligent robots, and it is also a community-built open-source project aimed at allowing every participant to enjoy the fun of robot development.

Open source co-construction

"Open source is power" - this is the core spirit of OriginBot, and we welcome every developer to participate.

▶ Open Source Ecosystem

From structure to electrical, from driver to application, OriginBot's small body is a huge open source world, and every developer is welcome to draw nourishment from here, and every developer is welcome to contribute.

Continuous Iteration ◀

Fear not the infinity of truth, for every inch of progress brings joy. Relying on strong community support, OriginBot and its developers are never content with just taking one step forward. Both hardware and software are continuously iterated and updated in regular versions, allowing us to grow and thrive together.

Full-Stack Development

The road to intelligent robot development is long and arduous, but OriginBot will accompany every developer on their journey of exploration.

▶ Full tech stack

The OriginBot project technology stack spans structural, electrical, embedded, ROS, artificial intelligence and many other fields, no matter what aspects of research you want to engage in, you can find a home here, quickly understand the complete path of robot design, and master the core methods of technology development.

Complete Contents ◀

The OriginBot suite is a key that can open the door to intelligent robot learning, hardware, software, graphics, videos, forums are all available, and they will be linked and covered from here, and a variety of software and hardware content will help every developer grow.

Smart Applications

OriginBot has a simple structure, but the application is not simple, and it can expand the infinite possibilities.

▶ Powerful Computing

OriginBot is natively equipped with RDK X3, a horizon robot development board, powered by a robust 5Tops computing capacity. It supports a rich array of cases such as CV acceleration, human tracking, gesture recognition, and visual line tracking, allowing you to enjoy the fun of AI and truly develop "intelligent" robots.

Rich Applications ◀

OriginBot utilizes ROS2 and TogetheROS™.Bot (Horizon's deeply optimized ROS open-source robot operating system) as its robot software system, compatible with numerous application functions in the ROS ecosystem that are ready to use upon installation. The original applications are abundant, allowing you to quickly start developing SLAM, positioning and navigation, visual processing, machine learning, and other applications.

Out of love

Every robot developer has once dreamed of "developing a robot from scratch," and OriginBot was born from this initial passion.

▶ Unique and Unrepeatable

Every OriginBot is unique, with a uniquely numbered license plate included in the kit. Starting from "0000" and sequentially encoded, when you attach the license plate to your car, you become its owner, and more possibilities await us all to explore together.

Start Robot Development Journey ◀

OriginBot aims to awaken every developer's initial dream and find their own suitable path for development. The future road is long, so please take care of each other as we embark on this journey together! Embark on robot development!
