Embodied Robot Manipulation Planning Training Platform ALO-LE4

Embodied Robot Manipulation Planning Training Platform ALO-LE4

ALO-LE4

Dual 5-axis arms. An embodied robot operation and execution training platform based on the ACT architecture end-to-end solution. Ready-to-use out of the box with no deployment required. Can serve as a data collection platform and is also suitable for research on imitation learning and end-to-end intelligent control solutions.

Applicable Audience/Scenarios

Suitable for embodied intelligence, imitation learning, end-to-end control, robotics, and computer vision courses and projects

Highlights

  • Two-in-one platform: data collection plus intelligent training and validation
  • Rapid, integrated deployment with independent reset for each subsystem
  • Progressive teaching workflow from environment setup to model training

Product Features

Unified data collection and training

Built on the ACT framework, the platform supports motion capture, model training, and validation. Adjustable lighting accommodates varied scenes, while the desktop setup ensures stable, repeatable experiments.

Fast deployment and recovery

Independent reset buttons on the master arm, slave arm, and OS allow quick restarts without building extra scenes or lighting setups, greatly simplifying debugging.

Progressive teaching design

Covering software environment configuration, hardware setup, and training workflows, the curriculum serves both classroom teaching and research requirements, guiding learners step-by-step.

Lab Scenarios

Configuration

Sensor Configuration
