Overview

Arm from the maker of the R1 wheeled humanoids, designed for robot-learning data collection. The A1Z adds a higher payload and an open-source, AI-coding-oriented Python SDK and ships in pairs for bimanual setups. Specs are strong for the price, but it is new outside China and support is still maturing.
