FAQ
Q: What is the difference between the two SO-ARM101 variants?
A: The Jetson Orin Nano Kit is intended as a more complete AI computing kit, while the Dual-Camera Kit focuses on multi-view data collection for users who already have a compatible host platform.
Q: Does SO-ARM101 support LeRobot?
A: Yes. Waveshare describes native support for Hugging Face LeRobot.
Q: Is this a 6-axis robotic arm?
A: Yes, it is an open-source 6-axis robotic arm series.
Q: Are package contents identical for both variants?
A: No. Package contents vary by the selected SO-ARM101 kit option.
Q: What weight is used for shipping?
A: The listing uses 5.5 kg, retained from the existing verified Global product weight because the official page does not provide a clearer per-variant weight.
