Asimov Shares DIY Leg, Pelvis Assembly Video

Asimov’s team posted its first DIY assembly video, showing the leg and pelvis build as it pushes toward a fully open-source humanoid robot. The project is positioning itself as a roughly $15K kit, with a full-body version targeted for later this year.

// ANALYSIS

This is the kind of update that matters more than another polished walking clip: it shows the robot is becoming something other teams could actually assemble, not just watch. The hardware stack still looks early, but the move from internal prototyping to build guidance is the real milestone.

  • A leg-plus-pelvis assembly walkthrough is a strong signal that the team is trying to productize the platform, not just demo locomotion
  • The open-source angle is the differentiator here; if the CAD, BOM, and build process are usable, it becomes a reference design for labs and hackers
  • The reported ~$15K price puts Asimov in the same conversation as other entry humanoids, but openness may matter more than raw specs for this audience
  • Assembly quality, part availability, and repeatability will decide whether this becomes a real DIY ecosystem or just a well-documented prototype
  • For AI developers, the interesting part is the eventual robot stack: a humanoid body is only useful if the software, sim, and control tooling mature with it
