Domo
Domo is a compact, developer-focused humanoid robot engineered by ROTAKU for embodied AI research, locomotion policy training, and whole-body control experiments. Standing approximately 90 cm tall with a weight of 20 kg, it features 23 degrees of freedom and delivers 70 Nm of motor torque, enabling dynamic bipedal walking and manipulation tasks. The platform supports reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and sim-to-real workflows, with optional NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX compute, VR-based teleoperation, and dexterous hand attachments. Designed for labs, universities, and startups, Domo is not a consumer home robot but a scalable research platform for testing AI-driven physical behaviors in real-world environments.
