Robora Sim: A PyBullet-Powered Environment for Learning Robotic Physical Intelligence We are currently building our Robora simulation environment setup for our sim based learning, leveraging PyBullet, an industry-standard physics engine widely used in AI-driven robotics research and development. The environment is optimized with GPU-accelerated learning algorithms, enabling high-speed imitation learning and reinforcement learning within a safe and controlled virtual setup before shipping out to real world. This simulation platform allows our models to learn, adapt, and generalize across different robot morphologies, terrain types and task objectives - all before deployment to the real world. At it's core, the system combines a VLA-powered high-level planner with low-level motion control algorithms, working cohesively to produce emergent, physically intelligent behaviors. This synergy between simulation, learning, and real-world transfer marks a major step forward in our pursuit of adaptive and intelligent robotic systems. Through advanced domain randomization and synthetic data generation, the Robora Simulation Environment ensures that policies trained in simulation transfer effectively to real-world robots, minimizing the sim-to-real gap. Moreover, users will be able to test and integrate their own hardware kits within selected simulation environments in the Robora Dapp, ensuring seamless compatibility and safer real-world implementation.

Hey #NeuraxonMini is literally out! , we manage to "transplant" a Neuraxon 2 bioinspired #AI brain to a physical robot the #SpheroMini moving from our last Scientific Paper (link bellow) by David Vivancos - e/acc & Jose Sánchez for Qubic #OpenScience hybridized with #Aigarth to the real World. First you need a Sphero Education Mini robot about 50$ Then you can try the first cool demos at Hugging Face: 1.- Neuraxon2MiniControl to drive the sphero robot 2.- Neuraxon2MiniWrite to write letters or words with physical moves of the sphero robot using Neuraxon Video Tutorials on youtube later today. Why this matters? Remember we are not building "dead" LLMs we are building #AliveAIs and for that we need to explore how it behaves in reality, from how it learns to how it fails, and what better way that in the emerging field of #robotics , time will tell if your next #HumanoidRobot have a #Neuraxon brain...

Long-horizon visual goals remain surprisingly hard for robot manipulation. We introduce Act2Goal, a goal-conditioned policy that uses a visual world model to reason about progress toward a goal, and practice it autonomously in the real world.

Qualia has been selected for the Google DeepMind Robotics Program. We train embodied models that put a robot on a real manual task and make it work, on the floor, not in a demo. Foundation models and reasoning are where robotics is heading, and doing that work alongside DeepMind, who are pushing this frontier, is exactly where we want to be. If you are a company looking to see how a new generation of robots can help your manual tasks, contact us at hello@qualiastudios.dev More soon

🚀Thrilled to share what we’ve been building at TRI over the past several months: our first Large Behavior Models (LBMs) are here! I’m proud to have been a core contributor to the multi-task policy learning and post-training efforts. At TRI, we’ve been researching how LBMs can help robots learn faster, better, and more efficiently. The key takeaways: ✅ We built an evaluation pipeline to benchmark LBM performance with real 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 ✅ Pre-training on hundreds of tasks makes models more robust—plus, we can teach new, complex tasks with 80% 𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 ✅ The bigger and more diverse the pre-training, the better the results Check out our overview video, webpage and paper for more details: ✨ 🌎 📄 We hope this work helps move the field of robotics forward!

How can we leverage diverse human videos to improve robot manipulation? Excited to introduce EgoVLA — a Vision-Language-Action model trained on egocentric human videos by explicitly modeling wrist & hand motion. We build a shared action space between humans and robots, enabling seamless transfer. With some robot demos, EgoVLA becomes a powerful, generalizable robot policy.

What if you could turn a single 360° photo into a production-ready Isaac Sim environment in minutes? That's exactly what we did here. Using World Labs' Marble and an Insta360 X5 capture (rotating on top), we generated a complete navigable 3D environment and populated it with Lightwheel Sim Ready assets (bottom view). The result? A fully interactive scene in Isaac Sim, ready for sim2real testing,. Navigation, manipulation, or any robotics task you need to validate. What used to take weeks of manual 3D modeling and asset placement now takes minutes. Capture once in the real world, simulate everywhere in your training pipeline. This is the future of robotics development with world models. NVIDIA Robotics NVIDIA Omniverse #Sim2Real #Robotics #Simulation

System identification (sysid) is the process of finding the physical parameters that make a simulation match reality. If you're training an RL locomotion policy in simulation, the accuracy of your motor model directly affects how well the policy transfers to the real robot. A recent git commit by Kevin Zakka added a sysid toolbox to MuJoCo which automates this process: you provide recorded motor data and a MuJoCo model, and it optimizes the model parameters to minimize the difference between simulated and real trajectories. For my RobStride Dynamics RS02 QDD motors (17 Nm peak, 7.75:1 gear), I built a Rust tool that sends multi-sine torque excitation at 1 kHz and records position/velocity feedback. I then feed this data into MuJoCo's sysid optimizer.
