Mercury A1 Humanoid Robot Features Specifications Gitbook Support Shop Now Mercury A1: Lightweight 7-Axis Robotic Arm "Power Spring" Harmonic Modules. MercuryA1 is equipped with 7 Elephant Robot’s new self-developed "Power Spring" series harmonic modules. The maximum output torque can reach 80Nm, the encoder resolution is 19bit, and the repetitive positioning accuracy is as high as 0.6 arc minutes. The ultra-lightweight carbon fiber shell further reducing weight, and greatly improves the strength and rigidity of the entire machine. Powerful Controller, Quick Deployment in One Touch: Mercury A1 adopts single master control and dual slave control methods. The main control adopts Cortext A72 - 1.5GHz, equipped with a 2.0-inch IPS-LCD capacitive touch screen, and cooperates with the myPanel OS independently developed by Elephant Robot to achieve rapid deployment and application without programming. Diverse software and hardware ecosystem: For the first time, Mercury A1 integrates 3 major software operation modes and more than 10 kinds of hardware accessories. At the same time, a Robotics Educational Kit is provided to assist in the learning of software and hardware knowledge in multiple disciplines. Diverse Software Ecosystem: The Mercury robot series adheres to the open source tradition of Elephant software and supports a rich software ecosystem and mainstream programming languages. It also supports mainstream simulation software including ROS, Moveit, Gazebo and Mujoco to improve the autonomous learning and rapid iteration capabilities of machine intelligence. Support secondary development: Python API - pymycobot is a general-purpose Python control library designed to support several elephant robots. The robot provides a simple and flexible interface to facilitate developers to enter the robot Line control. C++ API - Mercury is a C++ control interface designed specifically for the Mercury robot. Simple and easy to use, it provides flexible control of robot joints, attitude and actuators, helping developers quickly implement different systems Robot-like applications. 7 INTEGRATED ALGORITHMS TO CREATE: For the first time, the Mercury robot product series integrates seven intelligent algorithms to overall improve the kinematics and dynamics performance of the robotic arm, suppress vibration, and ensure smooth coordination of both arms. Deep integration with vision, laser and voice sensors creates three-dimensional machine intelligence in an all-round way with the support of LLM.
