China's first full-size purely-electric running robot called "Tiangong", developed by the Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center, has gone open source to boost secondary development and integration into daily life.
The Center aims to advance robotics development through Tiangong, which combines visual perception sensors, 3D vision sensors, and high-precision IMU for effective motion control.
According to Global Times, after extensive testing and validation, the platform is now open-source, allowing other enterprises and research institutions to access it directly. This move is expected to shorten the development cycle and reduce research costs. The open-source project includes two versions of the humanoid robot.
"Tiangong 1.0 LITE" and "Tiangong Pro," with software and structural design documents already available. By the end of the year, the Center plans to release additional structural blueprints, software architecture, and electrical systems.
China's humanoid robotics sector is growing, with Tiangong showcasing lifelike running motion, fluid movement on stairs and slopes, and open-source compatibility for further advancement in commercial applications.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology announced a vision in November 2023 to mass-produce humanoid robots by 2025.
