OpenArm 2.0: An Open-Source Compliant Robotic Arm
OpenArm 2.0 is an open-source, 7-degree-of-freedom robotic arm engineered by Tokyo-based Enactic for contact-rich manipulation and physical artificial intelligence research. The arm features backdrivable, quasi-direct drive joints for highly compliant physical interactions, a gripper with an integrated camera, and a motorless replica arm for bilateral force-feedback teleoperation. It delivers a highly customizable, low-cost platform that facilitates the training of robust manipulation models using modern imitation learning and simulation-to-reality pipelines.
