FX Aegis Edu
Watching a robot walk teaches a student very little. Changing how it walks teaches them a great deal. The difference between the two is whether the platform opens up, and this one does.
The Aegis Edu is the same 15 kg quadruped as the Aegis Pro, with the development ecosystem unlocked. SDK access, standardized APIs, Python development, and Isaac Sim simulation support come with it, along with four expansion ports for external sensors and peripherals. A visual programming platform and the Openclaw no-code tool sit on top, so a first-year student and a research team can work on the same robot at different depths.

The work
The same robot, opened up
Faraday Future positions the Aegis Edu for education labs, university research, and developers building on quadruped robotics. It extends what the Aegis Pro does rather than replacing it, and everything you are paying the difference for is on the software and integration side.
SDK access and standardized APIs let a team write custom behaviors. Isaac Sim support means those behaviors can be prototyped and tested in simulation before they run on hardware, which matters when the hardware costs real money and a student wrote the code. The expansion ports carry Ethernet, USB, SBUS, and UART, so external sensors and peripherals are a wiring problem rather than a dead end.
Secondary development
SDK and standardized robot APIs with Python development, for prototyping, testing, and deploying custom behaviors on the platform.
Simulation
Isaac Sim environment support, so work can be built and tested in simulation before it touches the robot.
Lower entry point
A basic visual programming platform and the Openclaw no-code tool, so students without robotics background can program the unit on day one.
Motion and video
Ten or more preloaded dynamic motions and a 4K wide-angle camera with real-time streaming, carried over from the Aegis platform.
IN THE BOX
What comes with the system
These are compact humanoid systems, 1310 mm tall and under 40 kg. They walk, they hold a conversation, and they are built to be programmed. They are not material handling equipment, and the payload figure below is the honest limit on that.
- One quadruped robot device
- One remote controller
- App connection
- Ecosystem Skill Package, which carries the items below
- Ten or more preloaded dynamic motions
- Real-time 4K video streaming
- Secondary development through SDK, standardized APIs, and Isaac Sim
- Basic visual programming platform
- Openclaw no-code development tool
- Over-the-air update capability
Not included. Unlike the Aegis Pro, no costume comes with this model. Spare batteries and the touchscreen controller are purchased separately. Say early if any of those belong in your deployment so the quote covers them.
Listed as in development
Faraday Future lists the following as not yet released, to be delivered by future over-the-air update. They are not available at purchase.
- Autonomous navigation
- Environmental scanning
Optional add-ons
FX Aegis battery
216 Wh lithium-ion, roughly 1.5 hours to a full charge, 1 to 2 hours of runtime. For a lab running back-to-back sessions, a second battery is what keeps the unit available all day.
FX Aegis FHD touchscreen controller
A 5.5 inch FHD touchscreen with Hall-effect joysticks, connecting over Wi-Fi 5.

WHAT WE ADD
The hardware is where it starts
We are the distributor, and we are also the secondary developer and integrator. On an open platform, that usually means your program starts from something that already works instead of from an SDK and a semester.
Secondary development
We build against the SDK and the APIs, including sensor work on the expansion ports, so the unit does your task before your students touch it.
On-site integration
We install in person, work through your network and device policy, and test in the lab where it will run.
Operator training
Your instructors and researchers run the system before we leave, and we stay reachable after that.
Procurement
What your purchasing office will ask for
Pricing depends on the number of units, spare batteries, the controller you choose, and whether installation and training are included. We put the whole thing in writing rather than quoting hardware alone.
Purchase orders are placed with Stokes Family Holdings, LLC, doing business as MOSO Robotics.
If you are working toward a grant deadline or a budget cycle, tell us the date. It changes what we prioritize.
