Educational Humanoid Robotics

Bringing the
humanoid era
into the classroom

An open-architecture educational humanoid robotics platform which bridges the gap between today's classrooms and the professional humanoid technologies.

Education-ready computer vision modules

Own vision modules enable easy-to-use, fast and humanoid-specific vision capabilities — AI-powered object tracking right out of the box.

Own Tracking Camera
EdMechanics tracking camera module ANIS robot tracking a ball
  • The module is equipped with a quad-core processor (1.2 GHz) and a built-in camera with video recording up to 2592×1944 pixels.
  • Using its own computing power, the module automatically tracks objects in real time and transmits coordinates via Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or USB.
  • Provides easy-to-use AI-powered object tracking right out of the box.
Own Stereo Vision Module
EdMechanics stereo vision module Stereo vision depth map output
  • An AI-enabled stereo vision module with three 1080p CMOS sensors and a 6-core 1.4 GHz processor.
  • A specialized hardware accelerator for real-time image segmentation and accurate depth maps.
  • For precise navigation, integrates a 6-axis inertial sensor with a synchronized stereo pair and IR-filtered cameras.

Education-ready software

To make education more effective, we create simple software for younger students and integrate popular open-source industrial packages for advanced learners.

Ready to use tools for beginners
EdMechanics beginner software — block-based coding and camera settings
  • Easy-to-use motion design and simulation.
  • Smart camera settings — configure vision modules without code.
  • Block-based coding with video lessons for first-time learners.
Industry standard software for institutions
EdMechanics institutional software — NVIDIA Isaac Sim and ROS2
  • NVIDIA Isaac Sim — pre-configured digital twins for simulation and reinforcement learning.
  • ROS2 native support and open industrial frameworks.
  • Python and C++ APIs for advanced research and competition development.
More than hardware

Complete ecosystem. Not just hardware.

Both platforms are AI-ready and employ the most advanced, education-friendly open software stack — enabling a continuous learning pathway from first steps to advanced research.

01

Hardware & software, optimised for education

  • AI-ready powerful platforms that run humanoid algorithms locally
  • Block-based, Python, and C++ programming — from beginners to advanced researchers
  • Open software stack with ROS2 native support and pre-configured NVIDIA Isaac Sim digital twins
  • PDPL-compliant data handling and SDAIA AI-ethics guardrails at the platform level
Easy to use, with unlimited capabilities.
02

Curriculum & teacher enablement

  • Bilingual (Arabic/English) curriculum — online & print, text and video, with lab exercises
  • Aligned with Ministry of Education and HCDP competency frameworks
  • Pre-built educational software libraries, AI models, datasets and lab configurations
  • Dedicated teacher-training programmes included
Institutions can begin teaching on day one, without prior robotics expertise.
03

Competitions & community support

  • ANIS and SAMI-7 meet the technical requirements of RoboCup, FIRA HuroCup, RoboGames and ICRA
  • Competition starter kits with pre-built software skills for humanoid contests
  • EdMechanics develops and supports a national (KSA) humanoid robotics league
  • Structured support for Saudi student teams at international events
Builds national capability and demonstrates competitiveness on the global stage.
