The Booster K1 Education is a humanoid development platform designed to bring education, research and technological innovation closer to practical Embodied AI applications. Combining a compact structure, bipedal mobility and an open development ecosystem, it provides a versatile platform for exploring programming, visual perception, voice interaction and motion control.

AI Computing and Multimodal Perception

The K1 Education features an NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB computing platform, delivering up to 117 TOPS of AI computing performance. This architecture enables Artificial Intelligence algorithms to be developed and executed directly on the robot.

Its multimodal perception system includes a stereo depth camera, a 9-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), a circular microphone array and a speaker. Together, these components support the development of computer vision, voice interaction and sensor-processing applications.

Booster Robotics — Specification Comparison

The following tables compare the Geek Edition, Education and Professional versions. The Education column is highlighted to make it easy to identify the specifications of the version featured on this product page.

Handheld Controller

Responsive and easy to use, the handheld controller provides intuitive control of the robot. Use the thumbsticks to control walking and turning, while the directional buttons allow you to adjust the head position.

Button combinations let you switch between operating modes and AI Agents, as well as trigger commonly used actions.

Voice Interaction

Interact with Booster K1 through real-time voice conversations in Chinese or English. Give voice commands to make the robot walk, turn, wave or shake hands.

Choose from multiple AI personas and customise conversation settings for a more natural and personalised interaction experience.

Agile Movement & Stable Control

Booster K1 features 22 degrees of freedom (DoF), providing flexible and agile movement:

• Head: 2 degrees of freedom;
• Arms: 8 degrees of freedom in total;
• Legs: 12 degrees of freedom in total.

The robot supports forward and backward walking, lateral movement, turning and combinations of these movements.

With walking speeds of up to 2 m/s and turning speeds of up to 1.5 rad/s, Booster K1 delivers dynamic movement and responsive control.

When walking on uneven surfaces or experiencing external forces, the robot can actively adjust its posture and attempt to regain balance.

Impact Resistance & Autonomous Recovery

When pushed or struck, Booster K1 actively adjusts its posture to maintain balance. If it falls, it can autonomously get back up and resume movement, demonstrating its ability to recover and continue operating without manual intervention.

Automatic Safety Protection & One-Touch Emergency Stop

Booster K1 automatically stops active movements when a fall or abnormal condition is detected, helping to reduce the risk of damage.

A soft emergency stop can also be activated with a single action using the handheld controller, mobile app or onboard buttons.

Additional safety alerts notify users of low battery levels and joint overheating, providing greater peace of mind during operation.

Agents Ready Out of the Box

From everyday actions and football to real-time conversations, dancing and martial arts movements, Booster K1 comes with six built-in Agent types, ready to use straight out of the box.

The Agent library is continuously updated and expanded through system updates, introducing new skills and capabilities for users to explore with Booster K1.

Equipped with a stereo depth camera, 9-axis IMU, microphone array and speaker, the robot combines sensing and computing capabilities to support the development of visual perception, voice interaction and motion algorithms.

These integrated technologies provide developers with tools to explore intelligent perception, human-robot interaction and advanced motion control.

Easy to Start. Open to Go Further.

With SDK support for Python and C++, an Agent development framework and open-source resources for simulation-based training, Booster K1 makes it easy to get started while supporting advanced custom development.

Whether you are exploring humanoid robotics for the first time or developing advanced embodied intelligence applications, K1 gives you the freedom to experiment, learn and take your ideas further.

One Platform from Idea to Deployment

From Agent development and simulation validation to robot-state debugging and deployment on physical robots, Booster Studio brings the entire development workflow together in one platform.

Simulation and physical robots share the same codebase, allowing you to deploy to a real robot with a single click once validation is complete.

With built-in Vibe Coding, Booster Studio understands your development intent and automatically generates code, helping you turn ideas into working applications faster.

Battery Life & Connectivity

The Booster K1 Education is equipped with a 5 Ah battery. The specification comparison indicates a battery life of 1 hour and 10 minutes when walking at 1.1 m/s. Additional information supplied indicates approximately 80 minutes of operation at a walking speed of 0.4 m/s.

Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2 and Gigabit Ethernet, providing flexible communication and integration options.

Standing approximately 95 cm tall and weighing 19.5 kg, the Booster K1 Education is a versatile platform for educational institutions, universities, laboratories and developers looking to explore humanoid robotics, Artificial Intelligence and intelligent application development.

Note: The stated weight refers to the robot only. The supplied specification document does not state the total weight including the transport case.
