Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about this robot

Q1. How to troubleshoot Adam-U?

Check actuator connections, verify sensor calibration, and ensure firmware is up to date. Use diagnostic tools in the SDK to identify joint or communication errors. Restart the system if unresponsive and consult logs for detailed error reports.

Q2. How to set up Adam-U?

Unbox and assemble modular components following the user manual. Connect power and data cables, calibrate sensors using the provided software, and perform initial motion tests to confirm functionality before deployment.

Q3. What are Adam-U's primary use-cases?

Adam-U is designed for data acquisition and manipulation training, supporting industrial automation, research, and development scenarios requiring human-like dexterous tasks and motion capture.

Q4. How to operate Adam-U?

Use the open-source SDK to control Adam-U’s 31 degrees of freedom, including head, hands, and waist. Commands can be sent via PC or integrated systems, leveraging AI algorithms for motion planning and imitation learning.

Q5. How to maintain Adam-U?

Regularly inspect actuators and joints for wear, clean sensors and cameras, update software, and lubricate mechanical parts as recommended. Store in a dry environment to prevent corrosion and perform routine calibration.

Q6. What safety features does Adam-U have?

Adam-U includes a waist braking system for stability, force-controlled modular actuators to prevent damage, and software limits to avoid unsafe joint movements during operation.

Q7. How does Adam-U handle different surfaces?

Adam-U’s biomimetic design and reinforcement learning enable adaptive gait and balance on complex terrains, including slopes and uneven surfaces, ensuring stable locomotion and manipulation.

Q8. How to clean Adam-U?

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe external surfaces. Avoid liquids near electronic components. For sensors and cameras, use lens-safe cleaning materials. Regular cleaning prevents dust buildup that could impair sensors.

Q9. How does Adam-U navigate?

Adam-U uses a binocular vision system combined with AI-powered perception and motion control algorithms to interpret its environment and plan movements with human-like precision.

Q10. What are common Adam-U problems?

Typical issues include actuator misalignment, sensor calibration drift, communication latency, and software glitches, often resolved by recalibration, firmware updates, or hardware inspection.

Q11. How to reset Adam-U?

Perform a soft reset via the control software to reboot systems without losing settings. For a full factory reset, use the SDK commands to restore default configurations and clear user data.

Q12. How to control Adam-U?

Control is achieved through PNDbotics’ open-source SDK, supporting low-level joint commands, AI-driven motion planning, and integration with motion capture suits for real-time manipulation.

Q13. How to connect Adam-U to Wi-Fi?

Access the robot’s network settings via the control interface, select the desired Wi-Fi network, enter credentials, and confirm connection. Ensure firmware supports wireless modules for stable connectivity.

Q14. What is Adam-U's warranty?

Adam-U typically comes with a one-year limited warranty covering hardware defects and manufacturing faults. Extended support and service plans may be available through PNDbotics.

Q15. How to update Adam-U's software?
