HERB 2.0

Model: HERB 2.0

HERB 2.0 (Home Exploring Robot Butler) is the bimanual wheeled mobile-manipulation research platform developed by Carnegie Mellon University's Personal Robotics Lab and continued after the lab moved to the University of Washington. It combines a Segway RMP base, two 7-DoF Barrett WAM compliant arms, Barrett hands, a spinning 3D laser and extensive vision and tactile sensing for autonomous household manipulation and human–robot collaboration. Its paper refers to it as a roughly USD 500,000 robot, indicating research-platform cost rather than a public retail price.
