Are there any robots that are open source?
Poppy is competing with yet another open source humanoid robots: the Darwin-OP from Robotis (see Video 2). Indeed the OP stands for Open Plateform. Files describing both Darwin-OP’s hardware (mechanics and electronics) and software are freely available from source forge.
Which is the most expensive open source humanoid robot?
Although it is open, Poppy is still as expensive as other humanoids available on the market. Its total production costs approximatively $7,000, which is the price of the Nao from SoftBank Robotics. Poppy is competing with yet another open source humanoid robots: the Darwin-OP from Robotis (see Video 2). Indeed the OP stands for Open Plateform.
Is the poppy robot an open source project?

Are there any robots that are 3D printed?
Hobbyists can downsize the robots, and customize their shape to use fewer and smaller servo motors. The Flowers Lab, a french research team, is behind Poppy a humanoid which is 3D printed (see Video 1).
While Sparki comes on wheels, he has a walking cousin named Hexy the hexapod, a similarly open sourced platform. Robots don’t just walk; sometimes, they fly. A number of open source drones exist which take advantage of project like OpenPilot or Ardupilot systems.
What is the Yale Open Hand robotics project?
The Yale OpenHand Project is an initiative to advance the design and use of robotic hands designed and built through rapid-prototyping techniques in order to encourage more variation and innovation in mechanical hardware.
What is the purpose of the robotic open platform?
Robotic Open Platform (ROP) aims to make hardware designs of robots available under an Open Hardware license to the robotic community. It provides CAD drawings, electric schemes and the required documentation to build the robots
How big is the open source submarine OpenROV?
OpenROV (open-source remotely operated vehicle) is a low-cost telerobotic submarine built with the goal of making underwater exploration and education affordable. OpenROV is a remotely operated mini-submarine that weighs ~2.5 kg and has dimensions 15 cm x 20 cm x 30 cm. OpenROV is an open-source hardware project.
