Bambot

Bambot is an open-source, low-cost AI robot that combines a holonomic three-omni-wheel mobile base (LeKiwi-style) with a SO-100 manipulator arm, all driven by Feetech STS3215 serial bus servos. The project pairs printable hardware with a browser-based playground at bambot.org for keyboard, leader-arm, and chat control, and a companion lerobot-bambot stack for recording and replaying demonstrations. The upstream bill of materials targets roughly $300, but two cable rows currently have unpriced upstream US/EU vendor cells and only Taobao pricing, so Motari treats the visible total as source-estimated rather than checkout-reconciled.

What you get

  • A standardized, machine-readable robot schema derived from the source repo.
  • A primary assembly 3D asset is available from website/public/URDFs/bambot_v0.urdf.
  • Source-backed bill-of-materials evidence is linked with per-part provenance where available. Prices marked estimated are not yet verified against a vendor.
  • A transparent reproducibility score so buildability is a sortable, first-class property.
  • Cross-links to the source repo, datasets, models, and forks.
