Price Match Guarantee

We match the lowest online price on the products we sell — and if you find a lower price on a product listed over $2,000, we will beat it by $50. Purchase from our store first, then send proof of the lower price (a screenshot, invoice, or email) to support@roboticsselect.com and we will refund the difference.

A few requirements: the competitor must be an authorized online retailer of the product with the item in stock on their website, must be online-only (no retail location), and cannot be a discounter or auction site such as eBay or Overstock. The comparison includes the item price and shipping charges but excludes sales tax.

Rebates, buy-one-get-one offers, and special once-a-year promotions such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday are not eligible. Certain exceptions may apply.

Full Price Match Policy

Returns & Refunds

Cancel any time before your order ships for a full refund, free of charge. Custom and made-to-order products are put into production for your specific order, so all sales are final on those items.

You have 30 days from the date you receive an item to start a return — email support@roboticsselect.com or call (412) 415-7375. Products must be returned unopened and unused. Some brands set their own return terms, and the brand-specific policy on the product page overrides the general 30-day window; if the manufacturer will not permit a return, we cannot offer one.

Outright returns after shipment incur a 25% cancellation fee plus return shipping, and manufacturer restocking fees (usually around 20%) may also apply — return shipping costs are the customer's responsibility. Refunds go to your original payment method and are processed within 10 days of our receiving the returned product.

Inspect the package when it arrives: note any damage when signing for delivery and send photos to support@roboticsselect.com within 24 hours — freight damage claims are not valid after 24 hours.

Full Refund Policy

Shipping & Delivery

Standard curbside delivery is always completely free. Most orders ship out within 1-5 business days, and delivery takes 5-8 business days once shipped (estimated delivery 6-13 business days). All shipping times are estimates and can vary by brand, especially for made-to-order items.

Orders ship fully tracked via USPS, UPS, or FedEx, and we email your tracking information within 24 hours of the order leaving the warehouse. If tracking hasn't arrived within six business days of ordering, contact support@roboticsselect.com.

Upgraded delivery options are also available: Threshold Shipping brings the item onto your porch or into a sheltered/garage area, and White Glove Delivery brings it into your room of choice, includes minor assembly, and removes all packaging.

We do not ship outside the USA, with limited exceptions — if checkout accepts your shipping address, we can deliver to it.

Elephant Robotics myController S570

Overview

The Elephant Robotics myController S570 is a portable, wearable dual-arm exoskeleton controller for motion data collection and robot teleoperation. You wear it and move your arms, and it captures that motion to drive a connected robot in real time. It is designed to help researchers, developers, and educators apply robotics in practical and learning scenarios, particularly for end-to-end AI data collection and intuitive remote control.

It provides 12 degrees of freedom, six per arm, with a 570 mm reach per arm and a 1500 mm total span, and it weighs just 1.5 kilograms for comfortable wear. High-resolution 4096-count magnetic encoders track motion precisely, and the device samples data at up to 100 Hz, transmitting joint positions, speeds, button states, joystick states, and gyroscope data. A dual-finger grip, two joysticks, and two buttons provide control, and a 2-inch LCD shows real-time status.

The S570 connects over USB Type-C, Bluetooth, or wireless, and is broadly compatible: it works with the myCobot 280 and 320, myCobot Pro 630, myAGV, mechArm 270, myArm M750, myBuddy 280, the Mercury humanoid, and Universal Robots arms, among others. A standardized Python driver library on PyPI, together with ROS1 and ROS2 support and RViz simulation, makes teleoperation and data collection approachable even for beginners.

Applications

myController S570 motion data collection for AI training

The S570 suits research, education, and teleoperation. For AI research, it captures end-to-end motion data for training imitation-learning and other models. For teleoperation, it lets an operator control compatible robots from a distance in a natural, human-aligned way, which is valuable for measurement, rescue, and other unmanned tasks, as well as industrial workstation and humanoid-robot control.

In education, its user-friendly interface, pre-installed firmware, and documentation make it approachable for all skill levels, and it works with robots of various degrees of freedom for hands-on learning. Because it transmits standardized motion data, teams can build a teleoperation project across compatible robots without writing complex control algorithms from scratch.

Setup and Getting Started

Unbox and inspect: Remove the myController S570 and check for shipping damage.
Connect power: Connect the 8.4 V power adapter, and confirm the 2-inch LCD shows status.
Connect to your computer: Connect over USB Type-C, Bluetooth, or wireless, following the documentation.
Install the software: Install the Python driver library from PyPI, or set up the ROS1 or ROS2 environment with RViz.
Pair with a robot: Connect a compatible robot, such as a myArm M750 or a Universal Robots arm, and confirm the S570 transmits motion data.
Wear and operate: Put on the exoskeleton and move your arms to teleoperate the robot or record motion data.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the myController S570 do?

It is a wearable upper-body exoskeleton controller. The operator wears it like a vest with arm cuffs, and the controller's joint encoders track the operator's arm motions in real time. Those motions are streamed to a paired robotic arm (typically a myArm or myCobot) which mirrors the human movements. It is a teleoperation device for training imitation-learning policies and for direct teleoperation.

Which arms does it pair with?

Officially supported pairings: myArm M750, myArm C650, myCobot Pro 600, myCobot 280, and myCobot 320. ROS 2 publishers expose the joint angles, so any robot that subscribes to ROS 2 joint_state topics can theoretically follow the operator. Latency between human motion and arm motion is approximately 30 to 50 ms.

Does it work for collecting imitation-learning data?

Yes, this is one of its primary use cases. The S570 records joint trajectories during demonstrations which can then train policies via behavioral cloning, diffusion policies, or other imitation-learning methods. Most users record 20 to 100 demonstrations per task. Combined with a wrist-mounted camera, this is the standard pipeline for vision-language-action models on small arms.

How does it fit different operators?

Adjustable straps fit operators with arm lengths from approximately 50 to 75 cm (29.5 inches) (most adults). The cuffs are padded and breathable. Calibration takes 30 seconds at the start of each session: the operator holds a neutral pose while the controller zeros its encoders to the operator's body.

Is it wired or wireless?

Wireless via 2.4 GHz radio to a USB receiver on the host computer, with a wired USB option as fallback. Wireless range is approximately 10 meters (33 feet). The onboard battery lasts about 6 hours per charge and recharges via USB-C in 90 minutes.

Can it be used by children?

Yes for older children (approximately 12 and up) with normal supervision. The smallest strap setting fits adolescent arms. Younger children may find the cuffs too loose for accurate tracking. The exoskeleton itself is not active (no motors that can move on their own); it is a passive sensor that tracks the wearer's motion.
