Hands
Eleven joints per hand, force sensed at every fingertip.
Resolution down to 0.05 N lets the OR-02 Pro hold a vial, a seedling or a screwdriver with the same hand.
The precision humanoid

Forty-four degrees of freedom, and hands careful enough to move a seedling.

Choose a model
Three humanoids, one body plan. Hands, heads and batteries share a single interface, so a lab can start small and change shape later.
How the platform worksThe family, to scale.
Every part has a job.
The details that decide whether a robot is pleasant to work beside: how it senses, how quietly it moves and how long it stays on its feet.
Perception
Six depth cameras behind one pane of glass.
360 degree coverage without a ring of lenses staring back at the people nearby.
Power
6.5h
Runtime at walking pace on the OR-02 Pro. The pack swaps in under 40 seconds while the robot keeps its balance.
Actuation
38 dB at one metre.
Quieter than a library, so people talk to it rather than about it.
Open SDK, Python and C++
from oryn import Robot robot = Robot.connect("or-02-lab-3") robot.hands.right.grasp( target="rack_b/vial_4", max_force_n=1.2, ) robot.wait_until_idle() # returns once the vial is seated
No licence fees for the SDK or updates. Every skill runs in the simulator before it runs on the robot.
Where Oryn works.
Four settings, each with a partner who runs Oryn platforms every week.
What partners say
“We had the OR-01 walking our corridor test loop within an afternoon. It is the first platform we have used that does not fight the hardware.”
“The field unit walks our glasshouse at six in the morning and logs every truss. Mud on the feet is a non-event.”
“Visitors talk to the OR-01 instead of about it. That quietness changed how the whole gallery feels.”

Demonstration days run Tuesday to Thursday. We bring an OR-01 or OR-02 Pro, a dock and an engineer, and work through the task you are unsure about.
Three platforms.
One body plan.
Start with the robot that fits the work today. Hands, sensor heads and batteries move between models, so the fleet can change without starting over.
Compare side by side.
Standard configurations. Every figure is measured on the bench; method sheets are in Downloads.
Modules and accessories.
Swap a hand or a sensor head in the field with one tool. Prices are per unit, before tax.
No modules match.
Try a different type or model, or clear the search. Custom end effectors are scoped by our engineering team.
How an Oryn sees, moves and decides.
Five systems, designed together in Rivergate and shared across every model. Choose one to see what it does and how we measure it.
Six global-shutter depth cameras sit behind a single curved visor, with an IMU in the skull and torque sensing in every joint. The visor keeps lenses clean and keeps people from feeling watched.
6stereo depth cameras, 90 fps
360°coverage at 0.2 to 8 m
12 mscamera to body-frame latency
Quasi-direct-drive actuators with low gear ratios, so the robot can feel contact through its own motors and yield before anything is pinched.

Onboard compute with a 275 TOPS neural processor runs perception and motion locally. Your code talks to the robot through the same Python and C++ SDK whether it runs on the robot, in the simulator or on a workstation.
275TOPS onboard, no cloud required
ROS 2bridge included
OTAupdates on a schedule you set
Speed and force limits are enforced in firmware, below the SDK, so no skill can override them. A wireless stop and a stop button on the back halt motion and settle the robot into a stable crouch.
150 Ncontact force limit near people
0.4 sstop to stable crouch
2independent stop channels
One stack from firmware to your code.
Each layer is versioned and tested on its own, and every release runs in simulation before it reaches a robot.
Oryn Firmware
Joint control at 1 kHz, safety limits and stop channels. Signed, never user-editable.
LockedOryn OS
Real-time Linux with perception, state estimation and logging. Updated over the air, rollback from the dock.
Updated monthlyMotion runtime
Walking, balance, reaching and whole-body planning exposed as composable skills.
Open APIYour skills
Python or C++ on the robot, in the simulator or through the ROS 2 bridge. You own the code you write.
Yours
Safe to stand next to.
Limits live below the SDK
Force, speed and workspace limits are enforced in signed firmware. A skill can ask for less, never for more.
Two ways to stop
A hardware button on the back and a wireless stop on a lanyard. Either one settles the robot into a stable crouch.
Legible intent
The robot slows and turns its visor toward a person entering its workspace, so people can read what it will do next.
Everything is logged
Joint states, contacts and stops are recorded locally for 30 days and can be exported for your own safety review.
From the simulator to the floor.
- Simulate
Model the task
Build the skill against a digital twin of your space. Runs on a laptop, no robot needed.
- Validate
Rehearse on the bench
Run it on the robot at reduced speed with an engineer, and review the logs together.
- Deploy
Schedule the work
Set when and where the skill may run. The robot docks itself between sessions.
- Update
Improve it over time
Monthly OS releases, tested in simulation first and rolled back from the dock if needed.
Read the numbers for yourself.
Datasheets, test methods, CAD envelopes and the SDK reference for every model.
Go to downloadsWhere the work happens.
Four kinds of work our partners run every week. Each page covers the brief, the configuration they chose and what changed once the robot arrived.
Not sure it fits your task?
Most first conversations start with a short description of the space, the objects involved and who will supervise the robot. We will tell you plainly if a humanoid is the wrong tool.
The space
Floor surfaces, stairs or ramps, door widths and where the dock could live.
The objects
Sizes, weights and how fragile they are. A photo of a typical tray or shelf helps a great deal.
The people
Who works nearby, who supervises the robot and how often the task changes.
Datasheets, manuals and CAD.
Everything an engineering or procurement team asks for, versioned and dated. Safety documents are updated with every firmware release.
Nothing matches that search.
Try another model or file type. If you need a document we do not publish, such as a test report, ask and we will send it under NDA.
Need a document under NDA?
Test reports, risk assessments and electrical schematics are shared with customers and evaluating teams on request.
Release notes by email
Firmware and SDK release notes go out on the first Tuesday of each month, together with the journal.
Journal
Notes from the design studio, the test bench and our partners' sites. Written by the people who build the robots.
One email a month.
New articles, release notes and the occasional invitation to an open lab day. No sales sequences.
SubscribeRobots that are easy to stand next to.
Oryn started in 2019 as four engineers and an industrial designer in a former tannery on the Rivergate waterfront. We still design, build and test every robot there.
Why we build them this way.
Most humanoids are designed to impress on video. We wanted ours to be dull in the best sense: predictable, quiet and easy to service, so the interesting part is the work people do with them.
That decision shaped everything that followed. One mechanical and electrical interface across the family, so a lab can move a hand from one robot to another. Actuators that are quiet enough to hold a conversation beside. A visor instead of a face, because a robot pretending to smile is harder to trust than one that simply turns to look at you.
Today 84 people work across the Rivergate workshop and our field station at North Acre. We ship to research groups, laboratories, growers and public venues in 14 countries, and we answer support tickets ourselves.
