Gump Robotics is developing F1, a 28-centimeter, 12-joint biped intended to walk on a desk and learn tricks.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-04 issue.
For
Robotics enthusiasts and prospective early-unit buyers
Worth noticing
Two servos drive each ankle through external tie rods; the page says new behaviors are tried thousands of times in a MuJoCo twin.

Field notes

The page pairs an interactive model and a joint test from the design files with a hardware description: 12 digital servos, a motion sensor, and a 3D-printed body. It says the team trains walking behavior in a MuJoCo model before running a learned policy on the robot’s controller; the coffee-checking and object-scanning behaviors remain stated goals.
