Overview
The Galaxea R1 Lite is a wheeled mobile manipulation platform designed for data collection and deployment of Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models. It features a 23-degree-of-freedom system with dual 6-DOF A1X arms, a 3-DOF torso for vertical range, and a 6-DOF omnidirectional chassis. The robot is optimized for stable single-direction operations and supports teleoperation via an isomorphic master platform. It is built to accelerate the deployment of generalized robot manipulation tasks.
Flagship features
- Designed as a research and development platform for VLA model data collection and deployment
- Supports isomorphic teleoperation via the R1 Lite Teleop master platform
- 6-DOF A1X arms with spherical wrist joints for human-like manipulation
- 3-DOF torso provides 0-1.7m vertical range and forward/backward translation
- 6-DOF omnidirectional chassis with custom steering wheel module for translation, rotation, and Ackermann motion
- Sensor suite includes platform HD stereo camera, wrist monocular depth cameras (optional), and torso/chassis IMUs
