The 3D shapes are original models built from boxes, cylinders and capsules in code, scaled to each robot's published dimensions, shaped and coloured as the maker's own photos show it (head, knees, body, arm layout, lid, chassis), and fitted with disclosed components at their published size. No vendor CAD, photo or texture is copied or shown; what comes from a photo is marked as seen in product photos. The exception is 25 robots whose makers publish their own 3D model under an open licence: those are drawn from that model, credited on each robot and on the Sources page. Every fact about a specific robot carries a source link; a fact with no source is not stated. Where a vendor has not disclosed a component, the page says so and falls back to how that component class typically works, with example makers of the class, never a claimed supplier. Prices are quoted only as published (list) or as reported by a named outlet, with the date; the rest is marked estimate or not disclosed.
Deep-linkable: every part view has a shareable URL in the form #/anatomy/<robot>/<part>. The generic archetype for each type is in the list too, as the class-level reference.
Side by side on the things an evaluation usually turns on: sensing, actuation, power, payload, runtime, autonomy and where each one earns its keep.
For a real model, each value is what its vendor publishes (linked to the source) or is marked not published. For a generic archetype the values are typical ranges for the class, not a datasheet.
Every component class that appears across the robots, with each robot's version of it and the maker the vendor has disclosed. The same LiDAR, compute module or safety scanner turns up in very different machines; this is where to see who uses what.
Every company with a robot in the library: where it is based, where it says it builds, which models are here and what it has disclosed about them.
Every part's makers, what sits beneath them down to raw inputs, and how concentrated each stage is.
The supply chain as a data model: every part names its tier-1 makers, what sits beneath them down to raw inputs, how concentrated each stage is, what the class typically costs and whether it is export-controlled. A fact about a real robot carries its source; a class-level fact is marked industry-typical; a figure nobody published is shown as unpriced or not sourced, never guessed. Open any robot's supply chain page from its 3D view for the tier map and the roll-up.
Two layers. First, the real robots: the vendor's headquarters, its stated assembly locations and the origin country of every component whose maker has been disclosed, counted per robot type. Second, the class landscape: the regions the component classes are typically sourced from, by archetype. Neither is a bill of materials for any product; the first is only what vendors and named press have said.
Every page this library cites, grouped by publisher. A fact on a robot's page links to the entry here; a fact with no source is not stated.
