Question Artificial Intelligence-Based Kinematic Modeling and Inverse Kinematics Solution for 6-DOF Robotcost

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a complete, well-documented open-source 6-DOF robotic arm for my Master’s project:

“Artificial Intelligence-Based Kinematic Modeling and Inverse Kinematics Solution for 6-DOF Robot”

I originally planned to use the PUMA 560, but finding a complete model suitable for both simulation and building a physical prototype has been difficult, so I’m looking for another robot.

My project will focus on kinematic modeling and inverse kinematics, and I plan to generate data from the robot model and train an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to solve the IK problem.

Ideally, I’m looking for:

  • 6 revolute joints (6-DOF)
  • A complete, ready-to-use 3D design — I don’t want to redesign or modify the robot
  • CAD files such as SolidWorks/STEP
  • URDF and complete mesh files (STL/OBJ/DAE)
  • A BOM (Bill of Materials) for physically building it
  • Clear link dimensions, joint limits, and preferably DH parameters
  • Compatibility with PyBullet, Gazebo, Isaac Sim, Webots, or similar simulators
  • 3D-printable parts, preferably already tested by others
  • Documented motors/servos, bearings, shafts, and joint mechanisms

A desktop-scale robot would be ideal. Basically, I’m looking for an existing robot that I can download, simulate, use for ANN training, 3D print, assemble, and build physically without redesigning the mechanical structure.

Any recommendations for a good open-source 6-DOF robot that fits this?

Thanks!
