Controlling humanoids using mixed reality.
The ROBOTIS OP3 is a small, humanoid robot created for education and research, aimed at helping people explore robotics in an accessible, hands-on way.
Designed with advanced sensors and smooth movement capabilities, it allows students and researchers to experiment with robotics concepts like motion control and artificial intelligence.
While packed with powerful internal components—a fast processor, ample storage, and a high-quality camera—the OP3’s true value lies in its versatility as a learning tool.
It can move, sense, and interact with its surroundings, making it an ideal platform for teaching robotics, coding, and automation skills to anyone interested in diving into the field.
Who else wants to get their hands on one? ✋

Robotic chef that can prepare you a steak! 🥩
In a recent video, chef and social media personality Nick DiGiovanni partnered with @1x_tech's humanoid robot NEO.
Nick and the robot competed to make the perfect medium-rare steak.
Though they had backup steaks ready in case NEO slipped up, the robot nailed it on the first try, impressing everyone present.
❗️Robot demonstration was done using teleoperation!
Cool idea @radbackwards to show the potential of robots in kitchen setups! 👨🏻🍳
