Page is so dense, couldn't find the specs: Rockchip RK3566 processor with an AI accelerator, 1GB RAM, 32GB storage, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, microphones, speaker, two NFC antennas and removable battery (~1 hour runtime). Onboard policy loop: 50 hertz, Dynamixel servos, weight: 800g. Seven behaviors at ship: walking, sitting and standing, kicking, ground pickup, roller skating and self-recovery, can train additional behavior…
I found a few open-source small bipedal robots on the internet. There are actually many open-source robots available: [1]. https://robotics.umich.edu/news/2024/a-smaller-simpler-biped... https://github.com/daviddoo02/Legolas-an-open-source-biped [2]. https://github.com/MuShibo/Micro-Wheeled_leg-Robot [3]. https://github.com/Yuexuan9/Tinker Quadruped: [1]. https://github.com/stanfordroboticsclub/StanfordQuadruped [2].…

So which one should people buy?

I would love the simplest one of these with just wheels and an arm. Could do so much with it.
It's either this or https://mondorobotics.com/ and I'm torn. Obviously it's for my daughter and I will just be safety checking, definitely, 100%.

That's a completely different class of robot. The Beni robot is just a toy, it's just connect the app and drive it around, record videos and do some fancy tricks like flips. It is not meant to be a platform you program yourself. The Microduck is meant to be a hacker toy. Train it yourself, write software, hack it, etc. It depends what you're trying to get for your daughter. Is it something to get her into robotics? T…

I would describe the Microduck as more of a toy than Beni. Autonomous cameraman is a real application that Beni performs out of the box. I think you'll struggle to get Microduck to do anything genuinely useful.

IMO with that definition of "toy" you're overselling the value of performing useful work and underselling the value of farting about.

The creators of Beni seem to have promised that the platform will be open (including sim2real parts of Beni). I have ordered Beni for my family. It's sturdy and more practical for careless fun.
