YOR

Model: yor

YOR, short for Your Own Robot, is an open-source bimanual mobile manipulator from a NYU, UC Berkeley, and CUNY research collaboration. The platform combines a four-module omnidirectional swerve-drive base, a telescopic lift, and two 6-DoF PiPER arms with grippers so researchers and advanced builders can study whole-body mobile manipulation at a much lower cost than commercial mobile manipulators. Official docs, the project site, and the paper describe public assembly instructions, CAD, a bill of materials, simulation support, teleoperation scripts, optional SLAM/navigation, and physical control software. Demonstrations include coordinated bimanual pick-carry-place tasks, household-style chores, learned policies from demonstrations, and autonomous navigation. YOR is not a retail kit or consumer home robot; it is a build-it-yourself research platform that requires robotics, wiring, Linux/Python, and safety experience.
