World’s First Modular Robot D1 – It Can Transform!

Meet the Direct Drive Tech D1, the world’s first fully modular embodied-intelligence robot — a groundbreaking leap in robotics engineering. Designed to transform both its form and its purpose, the D1 can reconfigure itself from a bipedal robot to a quadruped, and even link with other units to form complex multi-robot structures.

At its core, the D1’s modular design allows “All-Domain Splicing” — meaning multiple robots can connect, detach, and reshape themselves dynamically to suit different terrains and tasks. From industrial logistics and field inspection to rescue operations and exploration, the D1 adapts to nearly any environment.

Engineers have achieved extraordinary benchmarks: over 25 km operational range, more than 5 hours runtime, and a payload capacity around 100 kg in crawler mode. Each module integrates advanced sensors, direct-drive motors, and AI-driven coordination for precise movement and high stability.

Industry analysts are calling the D1 a milestone in embodied AI and robotics adaptability, representing a new era where one intelligent system can handle the work of many. Rather than building specialized robots for every task, the D1 shows how a single modular platform can evolve and transform in real time.

The Modular Robot D1 isn’t science fiction — it’s the beginning of an adaptive robotics revolution that could redefine how humans and machines collaborate across industries.
