On the Unipos website, there is a robot "ALOHA Bimanual Teleoperation Kitpage has been added.
This ALOHA uses standard hardware, and the size after completion is L121.9 x W101.6 x L203.2cm.It can also be installed in research laboratories.In addition, it is low-cost, open-source, highly customizable, and useful for STEAM education and robotics research.For example, it can be used for learning fine operations with both hands.
What is ALOHA?
ALOHAstands for "A Low-cost Open-source Hardware System for Bimanual Teleoperation" and is a low-cost open-source hardware system for bimanual teleoperation.
Based on technology that applies the concept of action chunking in the field of artificial intelligence research, this product expresses small unit movements with transformer encoders to achieve complex actions.This allows remote control of tasks that require a lot of contact, such as precision work such as threading cable ties or juggling ping-pong balls.Even for very delicate work, two-handed remote operation boasts a success rate of 80-90%, proving its high operability.
Transformer action chunking example
- open translucent seasoning cup
- Attaching and detaching the battery
- putting on shoes, etc.
Features of ALOHA
ALOHA has the following features.We built a low-cost system comparable to an industrial arm, capable of various precision manipulations of objects, an intuitive, highly reliable and easy-to-operate system, repairable and versatile components, and researchers We use standard components that can be assembled immediately.
Applications include robot development, programming learning, transformer action chunking learning, task demonstrations using both hands, STEAM education, and robotics research.

About the most suitable machine for ALOHA control
ALOHA works by:Use of a high-spec computer is recommendedIt is done.
In particular, 3 or more USB6 ports are required.It uses 4 ports for robot connections and 2 ports for cameras.A USB hub can also be used.However, it may not be possible to connect four robot arms simultaneously via USB.
We also accept inquiries about the materials and setup of this product (ALOHA), and "ALOHA control computer (our brand name: TEGSYS)".Please feel free to contact us.
Purchasing overseas products for R & D and manufacturing custom PCs optimized for their use
Custom-made PC production service "Tegusis"Overseas product procurement and consulting service for R & D"UniposIt is possible only because Tegara provides two types of services, ""Purchasing overseas products for R & D and manufacturing custom PCs optimized for their useis a one-stop service.
For example, you need a PC to run hardware and software.However, the hardware requirements (* memory capacity, high-end video card, etc.) for comfortable control and operation differ depending on the conditions of use.Tegara's strength is that we can omit the trouble of searching for a PC that meets those conditions, and provide products procured from overseas and a PC that is optimal for its operation as a set.
Production and sales services for research and industrial PCs Tegsys has a track record of proposals for various purposes.Please take a look at our website.
