Korean firm ROBOTIS has launched the Open Humanoid GYM Project, an open-source program giving students hands-on experience developing behaviors for humanoid robots.

The initiative uses its AI Sapiens K1 platform and DYNAMIXEL components, allowing university and graduate students to explore robot development through simulation and real-world testing.

During the program, participants created and deployed a range of full-body behaviors, demonstrating how open platforms can support experimentation in humanoid robotics.
