Up close

The Amber B1 is a 7-axis robot arm from Amber Robotics for research, education, AI manipulation, teleoperation and prototyping. It weighs 8 kg, lifts 3–5 kg depending on configuration, reaches 581 mm and mounts flat, tilted or upside down. Brushless servo joints with position and torque feedback, Ethernet control, AMBER Robot Studio and ROS 2 make it an accessible platform for labs and startups.

Key features

Seven axes

A redundant joint lets it reach around obstacles and choose flexible paths, like a human arm.

3–5 kg payload

Enough for light grippers, sensors, objects and prototypes.

Light 8 kg arm

Easy to set up on a bench, a mobile base or a research rig.

Developer-ready

Ethernet control with AMBER Robot Studio and ROS 2 support.

Brushless servo joints

Smooth motion with position and torque feedback for research work.

Mount it any way

Flat, tilted or hanging upside down.

Questions

What can the B1 lift?

Around 3 kg as documented, up to 5 kg in some configurations, including the gripper. Confirm the figure for the exact version you get.

Why seven axes?

The extra joint gives the arm more ways to reach the same point, useful for avoiding obstacles and for research into human-like manipulation.

How is it programmed?

Over Ethernet with AMBER Robot Studio, or through ROS 2 for custom development.

Is it an industrial cobot?

It's mainly a developer platform. It suits labs, classrooms and prototypes rather than 24/7 production lines.
