Torobo
Torobo is a wheeled robot with 24 degrees of freedom for professional research applications.
Summary
Torobo is a wheeled robot designed for professional and research applications. It supports autonomous and teleoperation modes, including multi-robot coordination.
Torobo has a height of 166 cm and a mass of 120 kg. Its arm length is 844 mm, with a reach of 0.844 m. It features 24 total degrees of freedom, with 7 degrees of freedom per arm, 3 in the waist, and 3 in the head. The hand has 16 degrees of freedom, with 12 active degrees of freedom. The rated payload is 16 kg, with a peak payload of 20 kg. Payload per arm is 7 kg, and position repeatability is 0.03 mm. Torobo includes a depth camera using TOF, a microphone, and a stereo camera. It also has tactile sensing with 197 tactile points and a fingertip force of 10 N. The robot operates on a ROS-based OS and uses ROS middleware. It supports secondary development and provides Mujoco simulation assets. Its locomotion type is wheeled, with a walking speed of 1.39 m/s and a maximum speed of 0.5 m/s.

Specs
47 of 195 measures disclosure, not the robot: it counts the specs the maker and the directories we read had published when this page was last checked, so a robot with fewer published specs is not a worse robot. Makers also measure differently — height with or without the head, payload rated or peak — so two sources can both be right and still disagree, which is why every value carries a chip naming who stated it.

No value below has been independently measured or filed with a regulator — every number is a claim by the maker or by a third-party directory, and the chip on each one says which.

- Arm length: 844 mm2026-09-29
[statement 6abb9105afa314aefd692b23] "844 mm reach (per arm)" is a REACH figure, which that row's NOT text names explicitly ("arm span, reach") — it was the key's only statement, so the key correctly goes empty — read with its page context on 2026-09-29. Quote: "Its 7 kg payload and 844 mm reach (per arm) provide sufficient workspace for benchtop experiments."
- Sensors: Depth camera, Microphone, Stereo camera2026-09-29
[statement 6abb9105fb195aa06ce5e109] the quote calls the sensor OPTIONAL ("Optional RGB-D camera", "optional LiDAR", "Sensors (optional head)"), so it is not a sensor of the robot as sold — review-flagged on the tokyo-torobo dry run, then judged by hand as a class. Quote: "Sensors (optional head) Wide-angle stereo camera x 1 Fisheye camera x 1 Depth camera x 1 Stereo microphone x 1"
- Robot OS: ROS2026-09-29
[statement 6abb91055fa0d8da9d759bb8] "ROS ... support" is not a statement that the robot runs ROS — the same class closed on unitree-r1 earlier today — review-flagged on the tokyo-torobo dry run, then judged by hand as a class. Quote: "ROS (Robot Operating System) support."
