About E1

E1 is Noetix Robotics' bipedal platform for education, interactive robotics and embodied-AI development. Standard and Education configurations provide controller-operated walking, running and upper-body motion teaching, together with voice interaction. The 1.4-metre delivery configuration weighs approximately 40 kilograms with its battery and has 23–28 degrees of freedom. Five joints in each arm and six in each leg provide the principal limb motion.

The Education version adds a Jetson Orin Nano Super development computer, SDK files and URDF assets for software and control work. A quick-release lithium battery supports changing power packs between sessions. Upper-body teaching lets a user guide the arms and save movements to controller buttons. The factory locomotion controller is intended for flat, open ground and does not support stair climbing.
