DEEP Robotics DR02 Pro

Industrial Applications

Editorial: a seven-joint-arm development platform with richer perception and public Pro software for a bounded, supervised industrial pilot. Claimed IP66 and modular replacement are useful engineering features, while exact tool load, safety validation, production cycle/intervention data and local service remain unresolved.

This editorial assessment concerns industrial buyer readiness. It is not an independent performance test.

Manipulation and Perception

Pro: 31 body joints—legs 12, arms 14, waist 3, neck 2; grippers/dexterous hands are configurable and not added to this body count. Both 680 mm arm length EX end effector. Earlier brochure 10 kg maximum DUAL-ARM payload and current 10 kg continuous-operation load do not establish a per-arm rated load. Original 20 kg whole-body carrying claim is another scope. Per-arm payload scalar remains unknown; repeatability, duty curves and exact hand actuation unverified.

Current Pro matrix: octa-core 64-bit industrial processor plus NVIDIA AGX Orin 275 TOPS as standard, optional AGX Thor 2070 TOPS marketing figure; three depth cameras, one LiDAR, one wide-angle camera, mic/speaker. TOPS comparison precision not specified. SLAM, navigation, forward avoidance and autonomous charging listed in current table. February brochure marked SLAM/voice future OTA; current Pro page and field tests show later progress, without proving every delivered version includes all features.

SDK and Integration

Public BSD-3-Clause C++ ROS2 SDK2 has a distinct dr 02_pro package, with low-level joint data/control, high-level gait/velocity, modes, battery/fault and audio examples. Real AOS uses Ubuntu 24.04/Jazzy; Pro NOS 22.04/Humble. Separate MuJoCo and Isaac Lab AMP workflows exist. Pro adds documented Mimic, retargeting and Pico waist/arm teleoperation. Match delivered firmware, model and message versions; open interface code does not license all onboard models or certify physical performance. Separate service docs also expose TCP/UDP heartbeat, mode, gait and velocity interfaces. The September Pro usage guide documents mapping, localisation and navigation; these capabilities must not be transferred to Standard or to an unconfirmed firmware build.

Current GitHub root documents Jazzy/24.04 and Humble/22.04; an older developer build page mentions Foxy. Use product-specific current instructions. Pro simulation’s 29-actuator mapping does not establish the physical 31-joint body count as false.

Safety Notes

No signed exact-model EU declaration, complete functional-safety file, independent stopping/fall envelope or payload duty validation inspected. IP protection does not establish safe human collaboration or tool operation. Manufacturer restricts 4 m/s extreme-test speed from external use; core scalar uses current 1 m/s maximum WORKING speed. Initial SDK motion tests require safety suspension, correct Developer Mode and a single command publisher. Teleoperation Emergency is a software pose hold, not hardware emergency stop; HES telemetry is not a measured stop test. Hardware guide requires unused connector caps to remain sealed and supplied connectors fully locked; open or misassembled ports can invalidate weather protection.

Maximum working speed is 1 m/s; 4 m/s is a restricted laboratory test. Current Pro navigation/charging features differ from the dated February brochure. Contract and delivered hardware govern.

• Current customer-service and public documentation portal ↗ DEEP Robotics · Accessed Nov 2, 2026

  Portal lists DR02 for support tickets with model/serial/version details, telephone 19033924528 and document links. Training-plan panel says coming soon; no exact humanoid course, warranty duration or EU repair SLA established. No login, ticket, message or form submission performed.

• DR02 hard emergency-stop status interface ↗ DEEP Robotics · Accessed Nov 2, 2026

  Documentation exposes the HES hard-stop state via basic-status telemetry. A status bit is not a measured stopping distance, proof of independent safety integrity or confirmation that every software hold removes motor power.

• DR02 Pro Pico teleoperation ↗ DEEPRoboticsLab GitHub account · Accessed Nov 2, 2026

  C++17 ROS2 Pico/XRoboToolkit project controls waist and arms with optional supported end effectors and data recording. README identifies BSD-3-Clause; SDK root licence was separately inspected. Its Emergency mode is a SOFTWARE POSE HOLD, not a hardware emergency stop. Keep physical stop access; simulator build must not control hardware.

• DR02 Pro reference-motion training ↗ DEEPRoboticsLab GitHub account · Accessed Nov 2, 2026

  Current maker repository identifies Pro as the main robot and documents Isaac Lab motion tracking, retargeting and ONNX evaluation. A research pipeline and demonstration do not establish autonomous task reliability or support for every retail hardware revision.

• DR02 Pro SDK product guide ↗ DEEPRoboticsLab GitHub account · Accessed Nov 2, 2026

  Product guide describes real and simulated workflows, AMP/Mimic inference and RealSense camera access. Physical SDK processes may control hardware from either development or robot hosts. First motion tests require safety suspension, correct Developer Mode and a single joint-command publisher; simulation builds must not control the physical robot.

• DR02 public developer resource and edition index ↗ DEEP Robotics · Accessed Nov 2, 2026

  Primary documentation links separate Standard and Pro SDK, simulator and URDF entries. Pico teleoperation, motion retargeting and Mimic resources are explicitly Pro-specific. Model identity and package selection matter; this is not a universal DR01 SDK.

• DR02 ROS2 SDK2 and inspected BSD licence ↗ DEEPRoboticsLab GitHub account · Accessed Nov 2, 2026

• Isaac Lab AMP training repository ↗ DEEPRoboticsLab GitHub account · Accessed Nov 2, 2026

  README identifies the DR02 AMP environment, Isaac Sim 5.1.0, Isaac Lab 2.3.2, Python 3.11 and RSL-RL 5.0.1. ONNX policy export is documented. Training assets and deployment packages are separate; a trained policy is not a validated factory behaviour.

• Product-specific MuJoCo simulation ↗ DEEPRoboticsLab GitHub account · Accessed Nov 2, 2026

  Repository supports Standard and Pro with ROS2 Humble/Ubuntu 22.04/Python 3.10 or Jazzy/24.04/Python 3.12. Matching drdds versions and ROS domain required. Simulator is separate from SDK and does not reproduce every onboard navigation, audio or peripheral service.

• Pro simulation control limits and virtual joints ↗ DEEP Robotics · Accessed Nov 2, 2026

  Primary developer page describes a Pro MuJoCo model with 29 actuators and a 31-slot SDK vector whose final two entries are virtual placeholders. Upper mode constrains base/legs in simulation; it is not equivalent to physical whole-body stability. High-level motion and audio/peripheral services are not simulated. This is a software mapping, not proof the physical 31-joint robot has only 29 joints.

• UK DR02 assessment and conditional availability ↗ The Robot Group (seller) · Accessed Nov 2, 2026
