Two seven-joint arms are mounted on a fixed stand with a lifting column, and each ends in a compliant parallel gripper with flexible fingers, kept deliberately simple.","HIRO lists 17 degrees of freedom: 14 in the arms, 2 in the grippers and 1 in the lift. Three RGB-D cameras, one in the head and one on each wrist, provide 1280 × 800 color at up to 60 fps and 1280 × 800 depth at up to 30 fps.","Height, weight, payload and runtime have not been published."]},{"h":"Applications and deployments","p":["The company names packing, kitting and light assembly as starting tasks, with the idea that the robot can take over an existing station without rebuilding the line.
