About OMX
The ROBOTIS OMX is an entry‑level Physical AI manipulator designed for hands‑on dataset collection and comparison, helping newcomers step into Physical AI with confidence. This compact 5‑DOF platform, built on DYNAMIXEL‑X, supports end‑to‑end IL/RL pipelines and ROS 2‑native workflows.
Key Features
No Motor Setup Required
All motor parameters are preconfigured at the factory. You can connect immediately and start using the robot arm without any additional hardware or software setup.
No Calibration Required
Every DYNAMIXEL actuator is factory-calibrated, so users never need to perform calibration themselves. Both hardware and software are fully supported for plug-and-play use.
Safe Homing Bring-Up
The follower arm can safely return to its initial pose from any position during bring-up. This ensures stable, predictable operation and minimizes risk for first-time users.
360° Base Rotation
The base motor uses an extended-position design for full 360° rotation. With extended cabling, it can rotate indefinitely and expand the usable workspace.
Light Weight
OMX is engineered to be extremely lightweight, making it easy to carry and deploy anywhere while maintaining robust performance during extended use.
Low-Friction Leader
A special low-friction design makes the leader smooth and easy to operate. Fine movements feel natural with minimal effort, supporting intuitive data collection.
No Power Supply Required for Leader
Unlike conventional robot arms, the OMX-L leader works with a single USB-C connection, enabling simple laptop use for simulation or quick trials.
Spring-Effect Trigger
A spring-assisted control mechanism provides comfortable, repeatable grip feedback, making long data-collection sessions easier and less fatiguing.
User-Centric Design
Thoughtful details improve real-world performance, from an opened gripper design that reduces occlusion to a clear base point for initial poses and reproducible data.
ROS 2 Integration
OMX officially supports ROS 2 and integrates with ROS 2-based software stacks, allowing developers to unlock advanced robotics functions.
AI Workflows
OMX is compatible with ROBOTIS Physical AI Tools and native LeRobot workflows, so users can build AI-driven applications out of the box.
