BotWorld product guide

BotWorld is the platform entry point for robot resources. Use it to discover, obtain, reuse and publish robot digital assets, including models, datasets and engineering projects. When a resource is suitable for further work, you can import it into professional tools such as URDF Studio, Motion Studio or BotLab.

If this is your first time here, start with the BotWorld quickstart to complete one pass through signing in, finding a resource, opening its detail page and importing it into a tool. This page follows the August 13, 2026 product manual and covers BotWorld's resource structure, interface areas, filters, acquisition methods, interaction features and publishing workflow.

Product Overview

The platform serves robot developers, content creators and ecosystem partners. It covers robot digital asset discovery, model design, motion processing, control authoring, simulation validation and physical robot deployment. BotWorld, URDF Studio, Motion Studio, BotLab and OmO can be used independently, or connected into one robot development workflow.

After entering the platform, choose the product you want to use from the product guide page.

Product	Role
BotWorld	Asset discovery, community interaction and creator services
URDF Studio	Robot model viewing, editing and assembly
Motion Studio	Robot motion data processing
BotLab	Robot simulation validation
OmO	Physical robot deployment

New users should usually start in BotWorld, find a resource, then enter the matching tool for the next step.

BotWorld's Role

BotWorld is the entry point for the full workflow. Users find, obtain and reuse robot digital assets here, including models, data and engineering files. Creators can also publish their own work.

The current version opens BotWorld and URDF Studio. Tutorials for Motion Studio, BotLab and OmO will be added after those product workflows settle.

Find Resources

Search Resources

Enter a robot name, resource name or task keyword in the search box, then press Enter. For example, search for Unitree G1.

Common search patterns:

Search type	Example
Robot model	Unitree G1
Robot category	Humanoid robot

Filter Resources

After entering an asset gallery, open the filter area to narrow results by resource type, file format, tag and other conditions.

After filtering, click the close icon to remove one condition, or click "Reset filters" to clear all conditions and search again.

Filtering, removing a condition and resetting filters

Note: The more filters you apply, the fewer results you will see. If you cannot find a suitable resource, reduce the filters first, then adjust the keyword.

When Search Has No Results

Situation	What to do
Keyword is too long	Shorten it, for example from `Unitree G1 humanoid robot` to `G1`
Brand term affects results	Remove the brand name and keep the model name
Chinese and English names differ	Try both Chinese and English keywords
Category is uncertain	Enter the matching gallery and browse by category

Get Resources

Browse Resource Cards

Resource cards in galleries and search results show basic information:

Item	Meaning
Cover	Resource thumbnail
Name	Resource title
Type	Category such as robot body or motion data
Creator	Uploader of the resource
Interaction data	Likes, favorites and downloads

Cards are useful for quick browsing. Before using a resource, open the detail page to confirm file formats, version and usage notes.

View Resource Details

Click "View details" on a resource card to open its detail page.

The detail page shows the resource introduction, online preview, file formats, tags, version, update time, creator information, usage notes and action entries.

Before using a model, check:

Whether it includes a complete description file, such as URDF, MJCF or SDF.
Whether referenced assets such as meshes and images are included.
Whether the file format matches the next tool.
Whether version and usage notes are provided.
Whether the asset can be imported directly into URDF Studio.
Whether source or license information is provided.

Download Locally

On the resource detail page, click "Download", choose the content and local save location as prompted, then check the downloaded files after completion.

Note: Keep the complete directory structure after downloading. Do not delete referenced files such as meshes or images; otherwise parts or materials may be missing.

Import Into Professional Tools

Different resource types can be imported into matching tools for further work. Click "Import to workspace" on the resource detail page.

Choose the target workspace by resource type, then continue in the corresponding tool.

Resource type	Target tool	Path	What you can do after import
Robot model	URDF Studio	Detail page -> Import to workspace -> Import into URDF Studio	View, edit and assemble models
Motion data	Motion Studio	Detail page -> Import to workspace -> Import into Motion Studio	Process and generate motion data
BotLab project	BotLab	Detail page -> Import to workspace	Run, debug and validate
Tool plugin	Plugin Center	Launch directly from Plugin Center	Use online development tools

After import, check whether the asset library contains complete files, the structure tree is generated correctly, the 3D model is fully displayed, and the page shows no missing-resource or format errors.

If the model keeps loading for a long time, refresh the page and import from BotWorld again. If it still cannot be imported, download the resource package locally and import it from local files.

Interaction Features

Like and favorite actions are available on resource cards or detail pages. Click Like again to cancel it. After favoriting a resource, confirm it under "Me -> My Favorites". Click Share to open the share dialog, then copy the link or generate a share card as needed.

BotWorld supports online sharing and complete local package transfer.

Method	Steps	Use case
Copy link	Detail page -> Share -> Copy link	Chat tools, forums, email
Share card	Share -> Generate card -> Save image	Social media, with QR code
Local files	Download the complete package, then send it	File transfer

Note: When sharing a local model, keep the original directory structure and include the description file, meshes, textures and documentation.

Upload Guide

For your first submission, click "Upload asset" to open the upload guide, then follow the page prompts to prepare and submit the resource. For later uploads, you can open the guide again from the asset submission page.

Prepare Before Publishing

Before publishing, check each item to avoid review rejections:

Complete resource files, including the description file, meshes and images.
A clear resource name that includes robot or component information.
A concise introduction explaining what the resource is, what it includes, what it is suitable for and any limitations.
A cover image or model snapshot.
Version information and source notes.

Folder Structure and Naming

Recommended folder structure:

unitree_g1/
├── g1.urdf
├── meshes/
├── images/
└── README

Names should be concise and clear enough to identify the robot, component and version.

Recommended	Avoid
`unitree_g1_urdf_v1`	`new file`
`g1_collision_optimized_v2`	`final2`
`six_axis_arm_with_gripper`	`untitled folder`

Upload Steps

After signing in, click "Upload resource" in the top bar to enter the upload workflow.

Select the upload type and fill in the required information. On first upload, the upload guide appears automatically; after watching it, click "Skip" to enter the information form.

Uploaded model files must include a description file, such as URDF, XML or USD, and the corresponding STL files.

If you have a README or other documentation, fill it in or upload it in the documentation area.

Prepare a Cover Image

If you do not have a cover image, import the model into the workspace and use the snapshot feature to capture one. Adjust the model angle and position so the model is centered and fills the frame. Open snapshot settings, choose a suitable size and format, then export the image locally.

Model import, snapshot and cover export flow

Continue filling in the asset upload form. After confirming that the information is correct, submit it.

After upload, open "Me -> Assets" to view draft or uploaded assets, then click the edit button in the upper-right corner of the card to edit.

The edit page shows current review progress and editable areas.

After making changes, confirm the content and submit it for review.

Use AI review to check whether the asset content is complete.
