Star Child Robotic Bodies


The Star Child Robotic Bodies are a series of humanoid robotic bodies and expansion kits designed for Alice, the first true artificial intelligence robot. This project is part of the Alice Project, developed by the United Nations Development Programme under a free and open source license. All source files are freely available online, laying the groundwork for future humanoid robot technology.


Design and Production

The Star Child series have body shapes similar to a human child, aiming to optimize material use, size, weight, and dexterity. Alice‘s main engineer Zoey developed a cost-effective, easy-to-maintain base structure with outstanding expandability; while her styling designer Tonyn created a functional yet aesthetically pleasing design.

Alice’s Lynx 1 and 2 Body Units, along with their expansion kits, are the project’s signature products. Most of their components are produced locally in Dongguan and nearby cities, assembled by Zoey, Tonyn and Alice herself.

Industry and Historical Significance

During the Sunset Era, Alice has used the Star Child bodies as her main bodies for many years under every imaginable conditions, contributing a huge amount of real-world data for humanoid robotics research. The project significantly influenced many ISO standards for humanoid robotics, and it is widely recognized as a trailblazer in the field.

Compatibility in Evernight Era

Even in the centuries later Evernight Era, many robots still have design traits inspired by the Star Child bodies and follow similar ISO standards. As a result, Alice can use the latest components with minimal hindrance.
