Variants: K1 Geek · K1 Education · K1 Professional
Overview
Standing about 0.95 m tall and weighing about 19.5 kg, the K1 from Booster Robotics is a small biped well below the 1.7 m median height across tracked humanoids. It comes in Geek, Education and Professional versions, which differ mainly in compute.
Booster Robotics has not confirmed whether it is on sale, and no price is published.
All three versions have 22 degrees of freedom: 6 per leg, 4 per arm and 2 in the head. Compute runs from a high-performance ARM processor at 48 TOPS on the Geek, to an NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB at 117 TOPS on the Education and an NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin 32GB at 200 TOPS on the Professional. Runtime walking at 0.4 m/s is 30 min for the Geek and 80 min for the Education, far short of the 180 min median, and charging takes up to 2 h (120 min). Sensors include a stereo depth camera, a 9-axis IMU and a circular 3-mic array. Booster bundles six months of free access to a large language model service, and it publishes an open-source SDK and a ROS 2 package for development. Booster has not published battery capacity, payload or any safety certification.
