Here Be Dragons
Asimov DIY Kit is made for those who want to build a humanoid robot from scratch.
The Kit is made entirely from the same parts we use to build Asimov. It arrives as parts and you assemble it yourself. It requires mechanical and electrical knowledge.
The manual and build videos are included, and we'd be happy to be there through Discord to help.
Built for the ones who took apart their parents' electronics as kids and never really stopped.
We have a long way to go, and this is the first step.
Here be dragons.

FAQ
What exactly is in the kit?
Everything you need to build a full Asimov humanoid robot. Structural frame, actuators, motors, sensors, wiring harness, assembly manual, and build videos.
What can I do with this kit?
Up to you. You can hack it and build your own software or hardware on top of it. Think of it like a Raspberry Pi or Arduino for humanoid robots. This kit includes all the core parts you need to start building your own humanoid robot. It's open-source, so you can see how everything works and modify it. The kit uses off-the-shelf parts and simple 3D-printable components, so it’s easy to repair, modify, and extend.
What’s the Here be Dragons Edition?
This is the limited edition for explorers. The phrase “Here be dragons” was once used on old maps to mark unknown territory. The Here Be Dragons Edition is for people who want to go there, experiment, push boundaries, and discover what humanoid robots can become.
What drives the $15,000 target price?
Most of the cost comes from the actuators. Asimov’s actuator specs are close to the Unitree G1. Some components, like the arms, are even stronger. The robot can lift ~15 kg per arm for bicep curls and ~18 kg per arm for lateral raises. The DIY kit includes all the hardware, from actuators to electronics.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Our engineering team is active on Discord and dedicated forum threads. You will have direct access to the people who designed this robot. But we are not going to build it for you.
What does the pre-order cover?
It holds your spot. When the kit is ready, you complete the remaining payment. If you decide not to proceed, you get a full refund. You also get added to a private group where we share development updates along the way.
Is the pre-order refundable?
Yes. Anytime. No questions asked.
When does it ship?
Shipment starts in a few months.
Do you ship to my country?
Yes. We ship worldwide.
Is there a shipping cost?
No. Shipping is on us. Please note that any import duties or taxes on your end are your responsibility.
