Description
The Booster K1 is a compact humanoid robot (95 cm) designed to learn, test and develop projects in robotics and artificial intelligence. With its 22 degrees of freedom (DoF), onboard sensors (binocular camera, 9-axis IMU, microphone, speaker) and Python / ROS compatibility, it naturally fits into STEM curricula, R&D labs and robotics competitions (e.g., RoboCup).
Positioned as a more accessible alternative to the Booster T1, the K1 retains excellent responsiveness and precise locomotion, while favoring a lighter, easy-to-transport format for intensive use in classrooms, labs or demonstrations.
Three versions of the Booster K1: Geek, Edu and Pro
- Geek version (makers / enthusiasts):
- Compute: Qualcomm QCS 8550 – 48 TOPS
- Battery: 2Ah
- Battery life: 30 min
- Edu version (education):
- Compute: NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB – 117 TOPS
- Battery: 5Ah
- Battery life: 80 min
- Transport case
- Pro version (R&D / advanced AI):
- Compute: NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin 32GB – 200 TOPS
- Battery: 5Ah
- Battery life: 80 min
- Transport case
Portable, ready-to-use format
- No assembly required: fits in a case, ideal for moving between classrooms, labs or events.
- Height: 95 cm
- Weight: 19.5 kg
Locomotion and control: 22 DoF for realistic movements
- 22 degrees of freedom (DoF): legs (6 DoF × 2), arms (4 DoF × 2), head (2 DoF).
- Torque-controlled joints: hybrid torque / speed / position control + dual-encoder modules.
- Typical battery life: 50 min to 1h20 (depending on scenario and battery).
- Capabilities: walking, balance maintenance, joint flexion, interaction with objects.
AI computing power
- GPU: up to 200 TOPS for complex AI tasks (object recognition, machine learning).
- Programming environment: supports languages such as Python, ROS (Robot Operating System), and integrated educational tools.
- AI capabilities: visual recognition (depth camera), interpretation of voice commands (microphone array), reinforcement learning for adaptive tasks.
Onboard sensors
- Depth camera: for 3D perception and navigation.
- 9-axis IMU: tracking balance and motion.
- Microphone array: speech recognition and sound localization.
- Speaker: interaction with users via audio messages.
- Tactile sensors: detects physical contact for safe interactions.
Connectivity and compatibility

FAQ – Booster K1
Who is the Booster K1 for?
For educational institutions (STEM/robotics), research labs and teams that want a compact humanoid platform to develop, test and demonstrate algorithms.
Which version should you choose: Geek, Edu or Pro?
- Geek: for “plug & play” prototyping and coding on a controlled budget.
- Edu: the best choice for education (support, accessories, 5Ah battery, education solution).
- Pro: for R&D and more demanding AI workloads (maximum computing power).
Can you develop in Python / ROS?
Yes, the K1 is suitable for Python projects and ROS integration (depending on your stack and needs). This makes it practical for research and robotics courses.
Which sensors are integrated for perception and interaction?
Binocular/3D camera, 9-axis IMU, microphone array and speaker: enough to work on vision, posture and voice interaction.
What battery life and charging time?
In practice, battery life is about 50 min to 1h20 depending on usage, with a charging time ≤ 1 hour.
Can it be used in competition (e.g., RoboCup)?
Yes, its humanoid format, kinematics (22 DoF) and sensors make it a relevant base for demos and certain competition scenarios, depending on your rules and discipline.
