NoteCompany founded Feb 2025; prototype built in ~4 months. Repo created Dec 2025, actively updated. Uses Isaac Lab / ROS 2. roboto_origin is a snapshot aggregation of the module repos. Specs are maker claims from the Original-0310 brochure in rpo_hardware (not in the README): 1.25 m, 34 kg, 23 DOF, 3 m/s, 120 N·m peak joint torque, 48 V 15 Ah battery, >2 h runtime. URDF and MJCF in modules/rpo_description. Licensing is per module (LICENSES.md): hardware (rpo_hardware, rpo_description, rpo_appearance) CERN-OHL-W-2.0; RoboParty software and firmware GPL-3.0-only; rpo_hardware docs CC-BY-SA-4.0; roboparty_train BSD-3-Clause; orangepi-build GPL-2.0. RoboParty names and logos are not licensed. Walking, motion-tracking, get-up and parkour policies ship as ONNX in roboparty_inference / roboparty_deploy.
