Shanghai team open-sources running, jumping DIY humanoid robot with full hardware and RL training stack
tom_doerr · x · 2026-09-11
Shanghai-based RoboParty (founded Feb 2025) fully open-sourced ROBOTOORIGIN, a humanoid robot prototype built in four months that can run and jump. The GitHub repo (2.4k stars, bilingual docs) releases the complete stack: mechanical designs, electronics, reinforcement learning training code, and deployment. The team says DIY alone can't reach high performance, so they're open-sourcing the whole running prototype for the community.
