Reachy 2

Overview

Reachy 2 is purpose-built for labs and startup teams exploring embodied AI. Its dual-arm, high-DOF design and Orbita actuation deliver fluid motion for grasping and handoffs, while VR teleop enables rapid dataset creation and remote experiments. With an open software stack (ROS 2, Python, Unity), researchers can iterate quickly—from manipulation skills and imitation learning to conversational HRI—without fighting a closed platform.
