What's in This Configuration

The R1-A5-D Smart D brings anthropomorphic dexterity to mobile manipulation. BrainCo Revo 2 Basic 5-finger hands — with independently actuated thumb, index, middle, ring, and pinky — are pre-installed on both arms, paired with wrist RGB cameras for close-up visual feedback. Combined with the autonomous R1-A5-D mobile base, MID360 LiDAR, and stereo vision, this configuration enables research in human-like grasping, tool use, and hand-pose estimation on a navigating platform.

✓ R1-A5-D Mobile Base Body
Full upper-body humanoid on a wheeled autonomous chassis: dual 5-DOF arms, 1-DOF waist, 2-DOF head, 1-DOF pillar, 2-DOF base. 683×520×440 mm collapsed, ~30 kg with battery.
✓ BrainCo Revo 2 Basic 5-Finger Hands
Five-finger anthropomorphic hands with independently actuated digits pre-installed on both arms for human-like grasping and tool manipulation.
✓ Wrist RGB Cameras
Dedicated RGB cameras mounted on each wrist for close-up visual feedback, pose estimation, and grasp verification during mobile manipulation.
✓ MID360 LiDAR
360° surround LiDAR integrated into the mobile chassis for real-time SLAM, obstacle avoidance, and autonomous navigation.
✓ Orin Nano 40 TOPS
Built-in NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano delivering 40 TOPS for onboard perception, navigation, 5-finger hand control, and wrist-camera processing.

BrainCo Revo 2 Basic — Five Fingers, Human Form

The BrainCo Revo 2 Basic is a five-finger anthropomorphic hand designed to replicate the kinematic structure of the human hand. Each digit — thumb, index, middle, ring, and pinky — is independently actuated, enabling power grasps, precision pinches, tripod grips, and lateral holds that parallel human capability. This human-like form factor makes the Smart D ideal for research in tool use, hand-pose estimation, and anthropomorphic manipulation on a mobile platform — where the robot must navigate to a workstation, then pick up and operate objects designed for human hands.

Anthropomorphic Grasping — Built for Human Tools

With five independently actuated fingers, the Revo 2 Basic can grip screwdrivers, manipulate smartphone touchscreens, turn door handles, and grasp irregular objects that defy simpler grippers. The anthropomorphic architecture opens research in hand-pose estimation from wrist-camera views, grasp taxonomy matching human datasets, and tool-use learning — all while the mobile base navigates between task locations. The wrist RGB cameras provide visual confirmation of finger placement from the gripper's perspective, closing the loop between navigation, approach, and human-like manipulation.

Autonomous Mobile Base — Navigate, Then Manipulate

The R1-A5-D chassis adds 3 degrees of freedom to the upper body: a telescopic pillar for height adjustment and a 2-DOF wheeled base for omnidirectional navigation. Combined with the MID360 LiDAR and stereo camera head, the robot builds real-time maps, plans paths, and avoids obstacles autonomously — then stops precisely to manipulate. The removable lithium-ion battery in the chassis delivers approximately 1.5 hours of untethered operation.

LiDAR + Stereo Vision + Wrist Cameras — Complete Perception Stack

Smart D processes data from four complementary sensors: a MID360 360° LiDAR for metrically accurate mapping, a binocular camera head for scene-level vision, and dedicated wrist RGB cameras on each arm for close-up grasp feedback of finger placement and object pose. Fused on the Orin Nano 40 TOPS, this multi-modality perception stack supports research in active perception for mobile manipulation, hand-pose estimation from multiple viewpoints, and affordance prediction for human-designed tools.

Orin Nano 40 TOPS — Onboard AI for Navigation, Vision & 5-Finger Control

The built-in NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano delivers 40 TOPS of AI compute, running SLAM, path planning, object detection, 5-finger hand trajectory generation, and wrist-camera visual processing locally. No external GPU server, no cloud dependency — just power on and deploy. The module is pre-installed and thermally integrated with the chassis cooling system.

Binocular Vision & Multi-Camera Perception

A binocular camera head delivers a 146° × 124° field of view with a 60 mm stereo baseline for scene-level understanding. RGB streams at 1280×720@30 Hz and depth at 544×448@10 Hz. Combined with the MID360 LiDAR and wrist RGB cameras on each BrainCo Revo 2 Basic hand, the R1-A5-D Smart D offers a complete perception stack for research in multi-view mobile manipulation, hand-pose estimation, and active perception for tool use.

Voice Collaboration & Natural Interaction

Four-array beamforming microphones and dual 3 W speakers enable clear voice capture and synthesis in noisy labs, warehouses, or classrooms. The open audio framework supports custom wake words, multilingual TTS, and integration with LLMs for conversational command-and-control — even while the base is in motion.

Collapsible. Mobile. Ready to Deploy.

At 683 × 520 × 440 mm collapsed (1323 mm elevated), the R1-A5-D Smart D navigates standard doorways, elevators, and lab aisles. The telescopic pillar lowers the upper body for transport and raises it for manipulation. At approximately 30 kg with battery, it is a self-contained mobile research platform — no external compute rack, no tether cables during operation.

Full-Stack Open Development

Unitree provides a mature, Linux-based robot development framework with open APIs for the underlying system, robotic arms, mobile base, audio, lighting, and visual control. ROS 2 native support, dual encoders on every arm joint, and hollow internal wiring make the R1-A5-D Smart D a clean slate for reinforcement learning, anthropomorphic mobile manipulation research, embodied AI, and autonomous navigation studies. The built-in Orin Nano 40 TOPS handles perception and planning locally without external hardware.

Upgrade Path — Grow With Your Research

Smart D is the first anthropomorphic mobile configuration. Expand capability as your research evolves:

  • End Effectors — Upgrade to BrainCo Revo 2 Tactile for force-sensitive 5-finger grasping, or to LinkerBot O6 / tendon-driven hands for higher-DOF dexterity.
  • Compute Module — Swap to the 100 TOPS expansion for large-model inference, hand-pose estimation networks, and multi-robot coordination.
