AgiBot Lingxi X1
China's most fully open-sourced humanoid: a 130 cm bipedal research platform whose complete CAD, BOM, and control code were released to the world so developers can literally build their own from AgiBot's own blueprints.

Grippers, not dexterous hands
Standard end effectors are AgiBot's OmniPicker adaptive grippers (roughly 30 N clamping force, about 0.7 s open/close), one per arm, not dexterous five-finger hands. Each arm carries only about 0.5 kg. Because the whole platform is open hardware, the end effector is swappable in principle, but no anthropomorphic hand ships with or is officially sold for the X1.

Reality check
This is a blueprint and a dev kit, not a product you unbox and use. There is no official price, no dexterous hands, a 0.5 kg per-arm payload and 2-hour battery, and it does nothing useful until your team trains and deploys the control policies. If you want a robot that works on arrival, this is not it; if you want to build and own a humanoid stack, it is the most open one there is.

Price notes: AgiBot, which trades in China as Zhiyuan Robotics, does not publish an official price for the X1; the product pages and the company store route to quote requests. The design is fully open-sourced (Oct 2024), so the intended cost is whatever it takes you to build one from the public CAD, BOM, and code plus the PowerFlow actuators. Reseller listings that do exist quote roughly US $20,000 for an assembled entry-level unit, but that figure is a third-party listing, not an AgiBot price, and most channels show "request a quote," "coming soon," or waitlist rather than a firm number, so priceUsd/priceEur are left null.
No seller listing is recorded. Check the sources below for the maker’s latest information.

What it does on day onewith zero programming
Nothing turnkey. The X1 is a developer and research platform: even an assembled unit needs the RL locomotion policy deployed and tuned before it walks reliably, and there are no packaged consumer tasks. With zero programming it does not autonomously perform useful work; it is a base for you to train, not an appliance.
Best for: University labs, robotics researchers, and serious developers who want a real, reproducible humanoid platform they can modify end to end, and who value open hardware and code over turnkey performance.
What it takes to developskills, gear, and SDK access
Serious robotics engineering. You work in Python and C++ against the AimRT middleware, train locomotion with reinforcement learning in Isaac Gym, validate sim2sim in MuJoCo, and deploy through the inference module over EtherCAT to the 1 kHz domain controller. ROS/ROS2 familiarity, a capable GPU workstation for training, and (if self-building) mechanical assembly plus actuator sourcing are all expected.
SDK access: Full-stack open source: AimRT middleware plus public GitHub repos for hardware, RL training, and inference; Python and C++ SDKs with ROS/ROS2 support.
