AGILINK OmniHand SDK is the official software development kit from AGIBOT (Zhiyuan Robotics) for integrating and controlling dexterous multi-fingered hands of the OmniHand family. AGILINK is an AGIBOT software brand; this package targets the OmniHand devices.
The SDK supports: OmniHand 2025 (O10) — a compact hand with 10 active and 6 passive degrees of freedom, ~500 g, CAN FD communication and 400+ tactile points; OmniHand Pro 2025 (O12) — 12 DOF with position, torque and hybrid control modes; OmniHand 3 Lite (H3L) — a lightweight 4-DOF hand on a CAN bus; and OmniHand Dex UMI (O10 UMI) — a read-only variant using the UMI protocol.
The package provides C++ and Python APIs, kinematics modules, and a ROS 2 interface (Linux only). Supported platforms are Linux (x86-64 and arm64/aarch64) and Windows (x64). Communication with the hardware uses the CAN/CAN FD bus and USB. The code is released as open source under the Mulan PSL v2 license.
An SDK (Software Development Kit) is a curated set of libraries, interfaces, tools, sample code, and documentation intended for building applications and integrating with a specific hardware device, platform, or service. In robotics, an SDK typically exposes device control, telemetry, sensor access, configuration, and execution functions, significantly reducing the time-to-first-integration for developers targeting a specific robot or platform.
A Driver is a software layer responsible for communication with a specific hardware device or component. In robotics, drivers enable support for sensors (LiDARs, cameras, IMUs), actuators, motor controllers, grippers, and other modules at the hardware or low-level OS layer. They abstract device-specific protocols (USB, CAN, UART, EtherCAT) and expose a standardised interface to the middleware or application layer above.
Robot Control denotes the role of software responsible for motion control, command execution, coordination of actuating elements and the direct operational logic of the robot.
Device Integration denotes the role of software responsible for communication, configuration, initialization and handling of specific devices, sensors, controllers or hardware components within a robotic system.
