As of Oct 2026, DEPLOY verifies RP1 (ROBOTO 01), a humanoid by RoboParty (research). 2 sources back the record.

Overview

RP1 (ROBOTO 01) is a bipedal humanoid from RoboParty, unveiled at IROS 2026 on September 28, 2026. RoboParty calls it the first high-performance full-stack open-source bipedal humanoid robot. It builds on the company's earlier RPO (ROBOTO ORIGIN) project and uses in-house Romomo actuator modules with peak joint torque of up to 160 N·m.

Its software stack centers on PartyOS, an open R&D foundation that integrates the UFO framework, a training framework for learning motor skills through unsupervised reinforcement learning. RoboParty says it will open its motion-control systems, simulation environments, SDKs, training tools and PartyOS in stages, so the announcement does not establish that the complete stack is already available.

The company says broader software and hardware releases and a mass-production program follow later in Q4 2026. Pricing was not disclosed. Height, weight and degrees of freedom were not stated in the sources reviewed.
