On the Unipos website, a humanoid robot "Mercury Humanoid Robot Seriespage has been added.
Mercury is a humanoid robot series equipped with a lightweight robotic arm developed by the Chinese company Elephant Robotics. The lineup includes the following three products:
Mercury A1
Lightweight 7DoF collaborative robot arm
Mercury B1
Semi-humanoid robot with two 2DoF robotic arms
Mercury X1
A general-purpose humanoid robot with two 2DoF robotic arms and a mobile base for locomotion
The robot arm common to all Mercury Robot series is equipped with seven harmonic drive modules ("Power Spring" series) developed exclusively by Elephant Robotics (seven degrees of freedom).
In addition, the carbon fiber shell has made each arm (Mercury A1) approximately 1 kg lighter.

Product Introduction
Mercury A1
A lightweight 7DoF collaborative robot arm with a maximum payload of 1kg, a maximum working range of 450mm and a repeatability of ±0.05mm.
It adopts single master control and dual slave control method, the main controller is Cortext A72 - 1.5GHz, and the main body is equipped with a 2.0 inch touch screen. The interface of "myPanel OS" developed by Elephant Robot enables quick deployment and application without programming.
Mercury B1
A semi-humanoid robot with two robotic arms. Equipped with two Mercury A2s, it has a total of 1 degrees of freedom, and can operate one arm independently or both arms cooperatively.
The head is equipped with a 9-inch high-definition LCD touch screen, supporting multi-point control and user-customizable facial expression display. The main control module NVIDIA Jetson Xavier and integrated 3D camera enable 2D/3D machine vision guidance, grasping, and VR remote control.
Mercury B1 also supports ChatGPT for Robotics and has a built-in high-definition microphone array that supports real-time voice collection, bringing a new experience of AI voice intelligent recognition interaction.
Mercury X1
A general-purpose humanoid robot with two robotic arms and a mobile base for movement. It consists of a Mercury B2 and a high-performance mobile base, and has a total of 1 degrees of freedom.
The entire machine is equipped with NVIDIA Jetson Xviaer and Jeston Nano dual main controllers. The mobile base is equipped with rich perception such as high-performance LiDAR, ultrasonic sensors, and 2D vision, and is driven by a direct drive motor with a maximum operating speed of 1.2m/s, and can climb up to a height of 2cm and an angle of 15 degrees. The battery life is up to 8 hours, allowing reliable mobile operation for applications such as food delivery robots and remote operation.
End Effector Accessories
The Mercury Robot series offers a variety of dedicated accessories that can be attached to the tip of the arm, such as three types of grippers, a suction pump, and a flange for a 3D/2D camera (optional).
- Mercury-Flexible Gripper
- Mercury-2D Camera Flange
- Mercury-Adaptive Gripper
- Mercury-Parallel Gripper
- Mercury-3D Camera Flange
- Mercury Suction Pump
Software environment and development environment
The Mercury robot series has a rich software ecosystem and supports major programming languages.
It also supports mainstream simulation platforms including ROS, Moveit, Gazebo, and Mujoco, improving machine intelligence's autonomous learning and rapid iteration capabilities.
myPanel
A proprietary interface built into the Mercury A1 robotic arm. Combined with the Mercury A1's 2" touchscreen, it allows for rapid teaching, programming, deploying and debugging of the robotic arm without the need for additional hardware.
myBlockly
Visual programming software that allows you to develop applications with complex functions with simple drag-and-drop operations.
The new dual edit column feature and pre-set shortcut commands allow you to quickly program left and right arms for efficient collaboration.
Python API "pymycobot"
A general purpose Python control library designed to support ElephantRobotics robots. It provides a simple and flexible interface that makes it easy for developers to input line control into their robots.
C++ API "Mercury API"
A C++ control interface designed exclusively for the Mercury Robot series. It is simple and easy to use, and allows for flexible control of the robot's joints, posture, and actuators, allowing for rapid implementation of a variety of system robot-like applications.
Integrated 7 Intelligent Algorithms
Mercury Robot series integrates the above "seven" intelligent algorithms, which improves the overall kinematic and dynamic performance of the robot arm, suppresses vibration, and ensures smooth coordination between both arms. In addition, the deep integration with vision, laser, and audio sensors creates an omnidirectional three-dimensional machine intelligence with the support of LLM (Large Scale Language Model).
