About Booster K1
Booster K1 is a 95-centimetre humanoid development platform for education, embodied-AI work and KidSize robot-soccer research. It weighs about 19.5 kilograms and provides 22 degrees of freedom through six joints per leg, four per arm and two in the head.
Booster offers Geek, Education and Professional configurations with different compute options, while the published platform uses dual joint encoders and lists 60-newton-metre peak actuator torque. Compute, sensors and battery runtime differ across the three configurations.
