How Fun Can a Hiwonder Robot Arm Get?
A robotic arm that only moves by preset code is nothing more than an advanced tool. But once it's equipped with an AI-powered brain that can understand, see, and talk—everything changes. Meet Hiwonder ArmPi Ultra, the desktop robot arm powered by a multimodal AI large model and ROS2. It's redefining what an AI robotic arm can do.
ArmPi Ultra robot arm is powered by a multimodal AI large model, connecting online via OpenAI's API to enable real-time AI interactions. Equipped with an AI voice interaction box, it makes human robot interaction realistic and interactive. Combined with vision AI and sensor integration, ArmPi Ultra gains exceptional perception, reasoning, and action capabilities—unlocking advanced embodied intelligence applications and delivering a smooth, intuitive human-robot interaction experience.
3 AI Models Powering a Truly Smart Assistant
The core strength of ArmPi Ultra comes from its 3 AI engines. Its large language model (LLMs) gives it powerful understanding and reasoning abilities, allowing it to generate code, answer technical questions, and even translate languages—making it a smart AI assistant right by your side. The voice AI model, powered by advanced end-to-end streaming speech and language modeling, lets ArmPi Ultra AI robot listen in real time and respond in a lifelike way, enabling truly natural human-robot conversations. Meanwhile, the vision AI model enables it to truly understand the world—not just recognizing objects, but interpreting scenes and analyzing features—moving from simply recognizing objects to actually understanding scenes.

Unleashing Multimodal AI Applications with ArmPi Ultra
When the 3 AI models work together under the ROS2 framework, ArmPi Ultra truly comes alive. It can effortlessly switch between text, voice, and visual inputs to deliver impressive intelligent applications. It processes what it hears and sees, planning and executing actions in real time. ArmPi Ultra can manage everything from basic voice commands to complex tasks such as waste sorting or 3D object recognition.
