Hugging Face has acquired a French robotics startup, Pollen Robotics, for an undisclosed amount. The Reachy 2 robot, developed by Pollen, is an open-source and VR-compatible bimanual robot for advancing embodied AI, available to order at $70K. Hugging Face, the leading platform for sharing and fine-tuning LLMs, is also building LeRobot - a platform for providing models, tools, and datasets for robotics AI. Hugging Face was valued at $4.5B in the last round.

The vlog from Pollen Robotics is out! A fantastic visit in Bordeaux to see myself one of the only European humanoids companies. I visited their HQ and saw how they build and test robots. It's great to see the open source approach that is getting more and more people involved in robotics. True democratization of robotics (thanks clem 🤗, and Hugging Face)! Here's the link to the vlog: Thanks for such a warm welcome Reachy team!💛 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

That's what a French engineer (Julien Allali) is building for fun (spotted by Remi Fabre) 🤯🤯🤯 Things like that are making me excited about the power of open-source and collaboration for robotics that Pollen Robotics & Hugging Face can unleash! Let's build the future! 🦾🦾🦾

The most interesting thing in tech: the open source AI company Hugging Face has bought a robotics company? What??? It’s a sign of where they think the frontier in AI is and also how they think one can make robots more secure.

A French humanoid robot made a quiet breakthrough… and nobody’s talking about it. Hugging Face acquired Pollen Robotics, the team behind Reachy 2. This could change everything for Europe’s robotics scene. Here’s why this is a big deal 🧵

So cool to already see versions of the amazing hand in the wild just 10 days after release. The power of open-source communities for robotics! Also, very different than 99% of robotics projects who bullshit with unrealistic futuristic projects!

Another Chinese humanoid robotics startup has popped up—Lumos Robotics. They’ve made some good progress in just 4 months of existence. And, of course, they’ve had to show their robot getting roughed up to prove they're a serious humanoid startup.
