Nori Robotics has begun accepting orders for its A3 robot, priced at $1,688, with initial deliveries planned for fall 2026. The A3 features a wheeled base, two arms with a lifting capacity of 1.5 kg each, and is equipped with four 720p cameras, a lidar sensor, and a claimed autonomy of 6 to 8 hours.
The startup aims to reduce the cost of bimanual robotics, which typically demanded hundreds of thousands of dollars. By combining proprietary hardware with open-source technologies, Nori seeks to keep prices low while users participate in the development and training of the robot. The success of this model will depend on how effectively A3 can perform tasks reliably in domestic settings, potentially shifting consumer robotics into a more accessible market.
