About GR-3

GR-3 is Fourier's first "Care-bot" humanoid robot specifically designed for interactive companionship, with "approachability", "safety", and "emotional interaction" at its core. GR-3 stands 165cm tall, weighs 71kg, has 55 degrees of freedom covering its entire body, and a single-hand load capacity of up to 3 kilograms, supporting more human-like body expression. Through soft color schemes, flexible cover materials, and moderate height proportions, it creates a relaxed and approachable overall image, visually reducing the mechanical feel and eliminating the coldness of traditional robots. Simultaneously, GR-3 is equipped with Fourier's self-developed full-sense interaction system, integrating three major modules: hearing, vision, and touch, achieving more natural and human-like emotional interaction through collaborative feedback. Every design aspect of GR-3 is dedicated to becoming a social partner that can understand emotions and convey goodwill, using natural interaction methods to build warm human-robot emotional connections and intelligent collaboration in public service spaces.


Product Composition

The Fourier GR-3 General-Purpose Humanoid Robot consists of main components like the head, torso, arms, dexterous hands, waist, and legs. Its whole body is equipped with up to 55 degrees of freedom, supporting more human-like body expression.

  • Head: Has 2 degrees of freedom, equipped with a monocular camera for visual perception functions, and also features two eye display screens, ensuring aesthetics while considering practicality and expandability.
  • Torso: Integrates core components such as the robot main computer, power management board, communication board, and hot-swappable battery packs, undertaking the system's computation control and energy distribution management functions.
  • Arms: A single arm adopts a design including shoulder joint, elbow joint, and wrist joint, possessing 7 degrees of freedom, ensuring a wide range of motion in space and highly flexible operational capability.
  • Dexterous Hands: Under standard configuration, equipped with 6-DOF dexterous hands; 12-DOF dexterous hands are optionally available to support high-precision, refined manipulation tasks.
  • Waist: Has 3 degrees of freedom, giving the robot more flexible direction adjustment capability during operations.
  • Legs: Each leg is equipped with a combination of joints providing 6 degrees of freedom, ensuring the robot maintains a stable posture and achieves flexible movement under complex terrain conditions.

Coordinate System, Joint Rotation Axes, and Joint Zero Points

GR-3's joint rotation coordinate system uses the right-hand coordinate system. The color codes for each axis are as shown in the figure below: X-axis is red, Y-axis is green, Z-axis is blue. The figure also includes information on joint rotation axes and zero point positions. In the coordinate system, the robot's joint rotations can be divided into three basic directions: rotation around the X-axis is called the Roll direction, rotation around the Y-axis is the Pitch direction, and rotation around the Z-axis is called the Yaw direction.
