# What moves each joint

21 humanoids mapped joint by joint onto one canonical joint set (neck, waist, and per side shoulder pitch, roll and yaw, elbow, wrist, hand, hip yaw, roll and pitch, knee, ankle pitch and roll): actuator type, motor, peak torque or force, and estimated magnet and rare-earth content. As of October 2026. Interactive version: https://actuatorlist.com/humanoids. JSON: https://actuatorlist.com/api/v1/humanoids.

Confidence: "reported" figures come from the maker, its URDF or a cited spec page; "estimated" types and figures say what they were inferred from. Magnet and rare-earth masses are always estimated.

## Optimus Gen 2 (Tesla)

28 structural actuators built from six designs: rotary at 20, 110 and 180 N·m, roller-screw linear at 500, 3,900 and 8,000 N. DOF counts the 28, a 2-DOF neck and two 11-DOF hands.

- **Country:** 🇺🇸 United States
- **Actuators:** 42 (14 Harmonic, 14 Roller screw, 12 Tendon, 2 Undisclosed)
- **DOF:** 52
- **Magnet:** 0.53 to 1.76 kg NdFeB (estimated)
- **Rare earths:** 0.15 to 0.66 kg (Nd 0.115 to 0.450, Pr 0.031 to 0.141, Dy 0.002 to 0.053, Tb 0.000 to 0.018)

Estimated types rest on: 14 rotary units at shoulders, wrists, hips and waist with strain-wave reducers, per secondary accounts of AI Day 2022; Tesla has not published the per-joint layout / 14 inverted planetary roller screws: 2 in the elbows, 4 in the wrists, 8 in the legs, per secondary accounts; per-joint force class not published / Gen 2 added a 2-DOF neck; its actuator is not published / forearm motors pulling tendons, per Humanoid Atlas and Gen 3 hand coverage.

## Digit (Agility Robotics)

Logistics biped with 20 actuators: 4 per arm, 6 per leg, four of them a larger design. Legs add 8 passive joints each (springs and linkages), so DOF counts actuated joints only.

- **Country:** 🇺🇸 United States
- **Actuators:** 20 (20 Undisclosed)
- **DOF:** 20
- **Magnet:** 0.32 to 2.10 kg NdFeB (estimated)
- **Rare earths:** 0.09 to 0.79 kg (Nd 0.069 to 0.536, Pr 0.018 to 0.168, Dy 0.001 to 0.063, Tb 0.000 to 0.021)

Estimated types rest on: custom BLDC actuators with custom transmissions; reducer type not published; the four larger units are assumed at hip pitch and knee / custom BLDC actuators with custom transmissions; reducer type not published / custom BLDC actuators with custom transmissions; reducer type not published; toe A and toe B motors drive the foot.

## NEO (1X Technologies)

Home humanoid where high-torque-density motors pull polymer tendons at about 5:1 to 15:1, so joints stay backdrivable. Hands: 22 actuated DOF plus a 3-DOF wrist.

- **Country:** 🇺🇸 United States
- **Actuators:** 73 (73 Tendon)
- **DOF:** 75
- **Magnet:** 0.84 to 2.22 kg NdFeB (estimated)
- **Rare earths:** 0.23 to 0.83 kg (Nd 0.183 to 0.568, Pr 0.049 to 0.177, Dy 0.003 to 0.067, Tb 0.000 to 0.022)
- **Not counted:** 75 DOF in total: axes beyond the canonical joint set are not counted.

Estimated types rest on: 1X describes NEO as tendon-driven throughout; per-joint motor sizes are not published.

## Phoenix Gen 7 (Sanctuary AI)

General-purpose humanoid built around 21-DOF hands driven by coin-sized hydraulic valves, which Sanctuary says give an order of magnitude more power density than cable or electromechanical hands.

- **Country:** 🇨🇦 Canada
- **Actuators:** 55 (42 Hydraulic, 13 Undisclosed)
- **DOF:** not published
- **Magnet:** 0.16 to 0.93 kg NdFeB (estimated)
- **Rare earths:** 0.05 to 0.35 kg (Nd 0.036 to 0.237, Pr 0.010 to 0.074, Dy 0.001 to 0.028, Tb 0.000 to 0.009)
- **Not counted:** Leg actuation not documented.

Estimated types rest on: Sanctuary has not published how the arm and torso joints are driven / Gen 7 widened wrist range of motion; drive not published.

## K1 (Booster Robotics)

Kid-size RoboCup champion platform: 6 joints per leg, 4 per arm, 2 in the head.

- **Country:** 🇨🇳 China
- **Actuators:** 22 (22 Undisclosed)
- **DOF:** 22
- **Magnet:** 0.24 to 1.29 kg NdFeB (estimated)
- **Rare earths:** 0.07 to 0.48 kg (Nd 0.053 to 0.330, Pr 0.014 to 0.103, Dy 0.001 to 0.039, Tb 0.000 to 0.013)

Estimated types rest on: brushless DC joints with dual encoders; Booster does not name the reducer / brushless DC joints with dual encoders; Booster does not name the reducer; the URDF's elbow yaw is mapped to shoulder yaw.

## GR-1 (Fourier)

Fourier's first general-purpose humanoid, on its own FSA actuators; 225 N·m at hip pitch and knee in the published URDF.

- **Country:** 🇨🇳 China
- **Actuators:** 44 (44 Undisclosed)
- **DOF:** 44
- **Magnet:** 0.49 to 2.51 kg NdFeB (estimated)
- **Rare earths:** 0.14 to 0.94 kg (Nd 0.106 to 0.643, Pr 0.028 to 0.201, Dy 0.002 to 0.075, Tb 0.000 to 0.025)

Estimated types rest on: Fourier FSA smart actuator modules; the reducer type is not confirmed in the sources found / 6-DOF Fourier hand variant of the URDF; drive not published.

## IRON (XPeng)

Carmaker's humanoid with 82 DOF, 22-DOF hands and an all-solid-state battery, slated for mass production.

- **Country:** 🇨🇳 China
- **Actuators:** 27 (27 Undisclosed)
- **DOF:** 82
- **Magnet:** 0.36 to 2.98 kg NdFeB (estimated)
- **Rare earths:** 0.10 to 1.12 kg (Nd 0.079 to 0.762, Pr 0.021 to 0.238, Dy 0.001 to 0.089, Tb 0.000 to 0.030)
- **Not counted:** 22-DOF hands and spine axes: actuators not published.

## Asimov 1 (Menlo Research)

Open-source DIY-kit biped: 23 actuated joints from five EC-A actuator sizes plus 2 passive toes, with a parallel RSU ankle.

- **Country:** 🇸🇬 Singapore
- **Actuators:** 25 (17 Planetary, 8 Harmonic)
- **DOF:** 25
- **Magnet:** 0.56 to 1.05 kg NdFeB (estimated)
- **Rare earths:** 0.16 to 0.39 kg (Nd 0.122 to 0.268, Pr 0.033 to 0.084, Dy 0.002 to 0.031, Tb 0.000 to 0.010)

Estimated types rest on: part code P2-25 / P2-36 read as a two-stage planetary at that ratio; Menlo does not spell it out / part code H17 / H14 read as a strain-wave reducer of that size; Menlo does not spell it out.

Actuators: $5,281 to $18,004. Non-actuator BOM not published. Actuators are about 65% of the list price (35 to 120%). Actuator mass: 13.9 kg to 28.2 kg, largest share EC-A4310-P2-36 (18%), rest of robot 6.8 kg to 21.1 kg (published weight minus actuators). Magnet: 0.562 kg to 1.048 kg, largest share EC-A4310-P2-36 (29%).

## Magnet mass method

The magnet sits in the motor, before the reducer, so each motor is sized from motor-side torque: peak output torque / (gear ratio x efficiency), or for a screw force x lead / (2 pi x efficiency). A joint uses its published ratio (catalog record, reducer or part code), otherwise its design's typical band below (modeled). When neither torque nor force is published, the joint's load class (from its joint and the robot's mass) stands in for the output. The motor torque picks a size class. Magnet mass = pi x airgap diameter x active length x magnet thickness x arc fill (70 to 90%) x 7.5 g/cm³ (sintered NdFeB). The range spans the classes the ratio and efficiency bands reach. Hydraulic joints carry no magnet at the joint.
