Details

DOFBOT combines a 6‑DOF desktop arm and USB HD camera for ROS2 Python AI vision development, with 350mm reach and ±0.5mm repeatability.

Choose the control platform that fits your lab setup, from PC environments to Jetson-based AI development.

Upgraded configurations add depth vision and 3D interaction options for more advanced perception demos.

Alternative arm configurations are available when a different reach or degree-of-freedom layout is needed.

A pre-assembled DOFBOT platform that’s ready for guided learning, testing, and rapid ROS2 experimentation.

Built to support OpenCV-style vision workflows and higher-level interaction projects in one desktop system.

Optional Jetson Nano 4GB SUB provides the onboard compute for edge AI vision tasks and Python development.

Demo workflows cover natural interaction, task execution, and basic sorting scenarios for hands-on practice.

Vision-guided behaviors include tracking targets and performing simple pick-and-place style actions.

Interactive learning games help explore vision-plus-language style tasks in a classroom-friendly format.

Core vision demos include color recognition and tracking, interactive “catch” play, and rule-based sorting.

Includes gesture-based interaction concepts, model training examples, and inverse-kinematics motion control.

Use MoveIt with RViz simulation and motion planning to test trajectories and grasping logic before running live.

ROS2 Humble support pairs with mobile app, PC control, and USB wired remote options for flexible operation.

App-based controls add gesture-driven play, tracking demos, and custom action groups for repeatable movements.

Six articulated joints (J1–J6) provide a compact workspace for vision-guided manipulation and teaching motions.

Modular hardware options include bus servos, expansion/control boards, networking, and optional voice components.

The expansion board and serial bus servos simplify wiring and make it easier to extend the arm with add-ons.

The DOFBOT kit includes a USB camera module (480p/30fps, 110°) and an AI voice module with a small speaker for vision and voice input.

Yahboom DOFBOT training resources include 200+ systematic courses for learning vision robotic arm setup and programming.

The included DOFBOT course syllabus lays out the training modules and lesson outlines to guide setup and learning.

Yahboom DOFBOT includes open-source code and detailed tutorials, plus 3D model files and after-sales technical support resources.

The DOFBOT 6-DOF robotic arm includes dimension drawings and a specification table to help plan mounting and workspace clearances.

The DOFBOT kit includes the robotic arm assembly, camera, OLED display, controller handle, cables, suction cups, screws, tools, and a manual.

Jetson Nano accessories include the Nano 4GB board (optional), cooling fan, SD card, wireless network card, and ribbon cable.
