Chapter 1
Introduction
1.1 Welcome!
Congratulations on your new RO1 collaborative robot.
At Standard Bots, we believe robots can elevate people’s lives — but only if people can use them. We
created the RO1 to be an aordable robot that anyone can use, yet is still capable of tackling the tough-
est, most complex challenges.
This manual is meant to include everything needed to get you up and running. But if you ever need help,
we’re here to assist!

1.3 Intended Use & Limitations
The Standard Bots RO1 robot and control box are intended to be used in applications where products
need to be picked and placed or applications where a repetitive process can be completed with compat-
ible tooling. The RO1 robot and controller are intended to be used within the environmental constraints
outlined in this manual. The RO1 robot and controller are intended to be implemented together, the
robot is not intended to be used with any other controller and the controller is not intended to be used
with any other robot.
The RO1 robot provides various safety settings and measures that, when implemented correctly and
evaluated with a risk assessment, allow the robot to work in an unguarded collaborative environment
in close proximity to humans.
