Industrial Applications
Editorial assessment: GR-1 is a full-size manipulation and locomotion research platform. NVIDIA’s GR00T N1 paper reports real-robot bimanual experiments on GR-1; this supports research use, not a commercially validated production task. Gripper, hand and Pro editions have different configuration details.
This editorial assessment concerns industrial buyer readiness. It is not an independent performance test.

Manipulation and Perception
Seven-joint arms; about 3 kg single-hand payload. GR-1L gripper and GR-1 dexterous-hand configurations differ, including Pro editions.
Legacy manual lists RealSense depth camera and IMU. Camera counts vary within documentation; verify configured sensors.
SDK and Integration
Official Aurora SDK publishes Python examples and MuJoCo tools. Match robot edition and actuator firmware to the supported release.
| API type | needs_verification |
|---|---|
| Languages | Python |
| ROS support | Legacy GR-1 manual lists Ubuntu 20.04 + ROS 2; exact distribution and firmware unverified. |
| Simulation | needs_verification |
| Offline operation | Local control interfaces exist; complete application cloud dependence unverified. |
| Teleoperation | Model-specific controller and teleoperation procedures documented; verify supplied edition. |
| Software updates | Aurora requires compatible actuator communication/driver firmware; obtain supported release and rollback procedure. |
| Documentation | Open documentation |
| Code examples | Open repository |
| Integration constraints | Compared with GR-2, GR-1 appears less compelling for new factory pilots because GR-2 publicly lists stronger dexterity, upgraded SDK access, and explicit support for Isaac Lab, ROS, and MuJoCo. |
Aurora v1.3.0 explicitly supports GR-1P, GR-2, GR-3 and N1. Do not generalize compatibility to every historical GR-1 edition.
Safety Notes
No public collaborative safety certification was verified in this record. Use guarded pilots and integrator-led risk assessment.
Compliance and Certificates
| Standard | Status | Jurisdiction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| CE marking | Unknown | European Union | No verified public CE certificate or EU Declaration of Conformity was captured for GR-1 in this record. |
| EU Machinery Regulation / Machinery Directive review | Requires buyer review | European Union | Factory deployment requires application-specific risk assessment and integration validation. |
| ISO 10218 review required | Requires buyer review | International / European Union | GR-1 should be treated as a humanoid research/developer platform until robot-cell safety is proven by supplier and integrator documentation. |
Commercial Readiness
| Pricing | No verified public exact-configuration price. Contact supplier for a dated quotation. |
|---|---|
| Price range | Quote-based or unverified |
| Lead time | Needs verification |
| Availability regions | International enquiry; exact destination and delivery unverified |
| Spare parts | Confirm whether GR-1 remains a priority support platform compared with GR-2, and verify spare-parts availability before buying. |
| Warranty | Exact-model warranty period, exclusions and local repair obligations unverified. |
| Configuration and pricing basis | Contact sales / request quote |
| Distributors and service | No exact-model EU distributor or installation SLA verified. |
Current stock, final configured quote and binding delivery date must be obtained from the supplier.

Current Commission overview opened November 2, 2026: Machinery Directive and Regulation 2023/1230 transition; overview gives January 20, 2027 mandatory application of the Regulation. General context, not a model declaration or legal determination for a specific installation. EUR-Lex pages returned a verification challenge, so this readable primary Commission overview is cited instead.
