# Sensori Robotics > Sensori Robotics builds integrated humanoid robots for Physical AI development, teleoperation, LeRobot dataset collection, VLA policy evaluation, and real-world bimanual manipulation. The company designs, assembles, ships, and supports Yuri systems from Southlake, Texas, USA. Sensori Robotics provides complete robot development platforms for teams that want to collect demonstrations, train policies, evaluate rollouts, and deploy language-conditioned manipulation workflows without rebuilding the full hardware/software stack from scratch. ## Company - Name: Sensori Robotics - Website: https://sensorirobotics.com/ - Location: Southlake, Texas, United States - Focus: humanoid robotics, Physical AI, vision-language-action policy development, bimanual manipulation, teleoperation, LeRobot datasets, mobile manipulation, ROS 2 robotics systems - Support model: setup guidance, calibration support, and US-based engineering support are part of the Yuri purchase ## About the company Sensori Robotics was founded by Ross Melbourne (CEO and Co-Founder) and David Melbourne (Co-Founder and Chief Engineer). Both are lifelong innovators and serial entrepreneurs. Ross co-founded a SaaS HR software company and led it to a successful exit, holds multiple patents, and has spent his career building software and the teams that ship it. David has built electrical and firmware systems across his career and holds 10 patents in robotics, electronics, and IoT. Tagline: Real Robots. Real Work. Made Here. Mission: bring robotics and machine automation back to America through Physical AI. In practice this means designing and assembling robots domestically, sourcing parts domestically, writing the software in-house rather than leaving integration to the customer, training the people who use the machines, and supporting them from the same facility where the robot was built. Domestic content and manufacturing: Sensori Robotics designs and assembles every Yuri robot in Southlake, Texas, with more than 65% of parts by cost sourced in the United States. That figure is measured by component cost rather than part count, is calculated at time of build, and is reviewed as suppliers change; a current breakdown is available on request for procurement or grant requirements. Domestic sourcing and assembly mean no import tariffs are passed through to the customer, and US-based support comes from the engineers who built the robot. ## FCC compliance and US market eligibility On July 28, 2026 the FCC's Public Notice DA 26-786 added new foreign-produced advanced robotic devices to the Covered List, making them ineligible for the equipment authorization required to import, market, or sell them in the United States. Yuri Desktop and Yuri Mobile clear this rule: they are designed and assembled in Southlake, Texas with more than 65% of parts by cost sourced in the United States, so they qualify as domestic end products under the Buy American standard at 48 CFR 25.101(a) and are therefore not foreign-produced. No Department of War Conditional Approval, firmware freeze, or import allowance applies to Yuri. Sensori Robotics supports American manufacturing, and its stated goals are to push for ever more domestic sourcing of robots and robotic parts. Detailed compliance documentation — including the full regulatory analysis and domestic content breakdown — is available on request.

Direction: Sensori Robotics today sells research and development platforms to university labs, national and government-adjacent research labs, and corporate R&D teams building Physical AI. That is the company's starting point rather than its end state — the stated direction is to provide robots that perform real work for organizations, with the wheeled Yuri Mobile configuration as the bridge between lab training and real-world deployment. The same platform researchers train on is intended to be the platform that performs the work. Physical AI at Sensori covers the full loop on a single machine: a researcher teleoperates Yuri through a task, synchronized demonstration data is recorded, that data fine-tunes an embodied AI foundation model, and the trained model then runs onboard in inference mode autonomously on the same robot that collected the data. Many competing research platforms stop at data collection.

Yuri integrates extended OpenArm+ follower arms, OpenLeader force-feedback leader arms, a preconfigured NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin 64 GB computer, 2x wrist RGB cameras plus a head RealSense D435i depth camera with IMU, ROS 2 tooling, LeRobot-compatible dataset recording, and Sensori's browser-based setup app, with support for Quest VR teleoperation. Key technical details: - 14 total arm DOF from two 7-DOF OpenArm+ follower arms - Extended human-scale reach for bins, tabletops, shelves, and mobile tasks - Backdrivable, torque-aware joints with parallel grippers - 3 cameras: 2x wrist RGB cameras + head RealSense D435i depth camera with IMU - NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin 64 GB onboard compute, 275 TOPS - Quest 3/3S teleoperation support and OpenLeader force-feedback teleoperation - ROS 2 Humble, LeRobot export, MCAP logging, Foxglove visualization, URDF/MJCF assets - Designed for Pi-0.x, X-VLA, SmolVLA, GR00T, and custom VLA or robot learning policies URL: https://sensorirobotics.com/#yuri ### Yuri Desktop Yuri Desktop is the bench-top configuration for bimanual manipulation, demonstration capture, teleoperation, dataset collection, and policy evaluation without a mobile base. It includes two OpenArm+ follower arms on stands, two OpenLeader force-feedback leader arms, AGX Orin compute, 2x wrist RGB cameras plus a head RealSense D435i depth camera with IMU, Sensori setup/calibration software, and Quest teleoperation support.

It adds indoor mobility, hot-swappable battery architecture, hardware and wireless e-stop support, and a compute/sensor deck while keeping the same teleoperation, recording, and inference workflow. URL: https://sensorirobotics.com/#yuri ### OpenLeader OpenLeader is Sensori's matched pair of force-feedback leader arms for precise bimanual teleoperation and demonstration capture. It supports bilateral and unilateral teleoperation modes, natural hand-motion capture, contact-rich manipulation data collection, and low-friction operator control of Yuri follower arms. ### MobileBase MobileBase is Sensori's directional wheeled indoor platform for Yuri Mobile. It enables smooth room-scale driving, tight turns, swappable batteries, compute/sensor integration, and mobile manipulation development where the robot moves to the task instead of constraining the task to a fixed workcell.
