About
About GR-2
GR-2 is Fourier’s second-generation general-purpose humanoid, developed as a stronger manipulation and interaction platform than GR-1. It combines a full-size biped, articulated waist and head, dexterous hands and higher-torque joints for whole-body tasks.
Fourier supplies GR-2 within its GRx developer ecosystem, alongside control interfaces and data resources used for embodied-AI research. Fourier introduced GR-2 in September 2024 with a developer platform for robot control, data collection and simulation-to-hardware application work.

Timeline
- Fourier trains GR-2 floor-to-stand control with Isaac Gym
2024-11-06 - Capability - Floor-to-stand training completed 3,000 simulated iterations in approximately 15 hours, followed by an 89 percent success rate on physical GR-2 controls. The workflow used TensorRT, CUDA and cuDNN, with migration toward Isaac Lab planned for more complex simulation.
Source - Fourier announces next-generation GR-2 humanoid
2024-09-30 - Product Launch - The announced platform stood 175 centimetres tall, weighed 63 kilograms and offered 53 degrees of freedom with a stated three-kilogram single-arm payload. Its twelve-degree-of-freedom hands used six array-type tactile sensors, while a detachable battery extended the stated runtime. The developer platform supported VR teaching, lead-through programming and simulation workflows using Isaac Lab and MuJoCo.
