This is a great time to learn #robotics! Robot AI has advanced to where a novice like myself can build / train this folding robot in my garage. The tech is not perfect, but it is improving very quickly (exciting new papers daily), and will likely be ubiquitous within... show more

Joint stiction and insufficient or inaccurate sensor resolution is causing your jitters. Otherwise, really awesome!

Ethan_AI Marketer for 𝕏1 year ago

cool tech, but training can be a pain.

Philip Fung1 year ago

Imo this is the main pain point of this field, how to scalably generate real training data or properly make simulated data

Damian1 year ago

Cool. Teleop or autonomous?

Philip Fung1 year ago

autonomous

Conor Mc Gartoll1 year ago

Great work! Awesome demo

Philip Fung1 year ago

you inspired me to make the arm!

HumanoidRobots.com1 year ago

Nicely done!

Brian Lesko1 year ago

Cool demo. Looking like you’re using servo motors, which are often a bit jittery. Do you think AI can smooth and speed up those movements in the future? Right now you need expensive motors and controllers to get smooth motion..

Philip Fung1 year ago

I suspect this can be smoothed deterministically in software but will have to confirm with a test

Open-source robot arm meets hand tracking [📍GitHub below] It is designed with an industrial mindset but built as a 3D-printed desktop system. PAROL6 paired with a LEAP Motion controller is a nice example of how accessible robot teleoperation has become. • Hand motion is streamed to the robot at 100 Hz via UDP • A pneumatic gripper is controlled by simple fist open and close gestures • The entire robot stack is open source, from mechanics to control software Combine that with low-latency hand tracking and you get a very practical platform for learning manipulation, teleoperation, and human-robot interfaces. This kind of setup is great for experimentation, teleop, data collection, and teaching robots by demonstration All without proprietary hardware or locked software.

Another win for open-source robotics! 🔥 Hugging Face just released a fully open-source humanoid robot, and you can build one for $2,500. I'm a huge advocate of open-source in robotics space. Why? Robotics is too hard to solve alone. So lowering the entry point is crucial. Also, ROS proved open ecosystems create lasting industry standards. So let's have a look at the new member of humanoids family! LeRobot Humanoid is a 3D-printed, bipedal humanoid platform designed for real robot learning experiments. It's a complete and, buildable robot Anddddd yes, it's a full stack release: → Hardware files, bill of materials and full assembly documentation → Simulation assets and training environments → Runtime tools for calibration and real-world control → Sim-to-real identification pipeline When a part breaks, reprint it. When a design choice doesn't work, modify it and test again. The whole point is fast iteration on real hardware, not treating the robot as a fixed artefact. The timing is not a coincidence. As foundation models for robotics mature, the field desperately needs open physical platforms to train, validate and deploy them on. clem 🤗 LET'S GO!!! Build it here: ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Open source software is GREAT. But "open source" AI is NOT like software - it's VERY different. Rob Miles cuts through the bullshit: ROB: Oh, hey, Meta. I heard Llama's weights leaked. That's rough, man. Information security's hard. How you holding up? META: Oh, we're great. Yeah, we're fine. We... actually, that was deliberate. We meant to do that. ROB MILES: Oh, really? META: Yeah... well, the second time anyway. It's called open source. Look it up. ROB MILES: Oh. Well, I love free and open source software, but do those principles really apply to network weights? How does that work? META: Open source is good for users because it lets them read the source code and see what the program is really doing and how it works. ROB MILES: Wait, have you found a way to tell how a model works by looking at its weights? META: No. But, it lets developers all over the world spot bugs in the code and submit patches. ROB: Wait, people are fixing bugs in Llama's weights? META: Well, no. People can fine tune it themselves, though. ROB: ?? Other companies offer fine tuning through APIs. ... So, hang on, if you can't actually read the code and know what it's doing, then network weights are effectively a compiled binary. So, in what sense is this open source? Why not call it like public weights? Why call it open source at all? META: I love open source. ROB: Well, I know a lot of your employees do, but you don't love anything. You're a giant corporation. What's in it for you? META: I love, love open source.

Yann LeCun says today's humanoid robot demos look impressive, but the robots are very stupid in the real world "the missing piece is not hardware; it is AI that can't reason, plan, or adapt like humans" Robot companies are betting AI will make them smart enough to sell at scale within 3-5 years It's a big bet

A GUY PUT GPT-LEVEL AI INSIDE A 3D PRINTED ROBOT AND RELEASED THE ENTIRE THING FOR FREE Most people look at a 3D printer and see plastic toys This guy printed a robot with expressive eyes, object tracking, image recognition, support for ChatGPT, Qwen and offline models, then uploaded the STL files, code and hardware designs for anyone to build themselves The interesting part isn't the robot It's how fast the gap between "I have an idea" and "I built a working product" is disappearing A few years ago this required a team of engineers Now one person with a printer, open-source software and enough curiosity can build something that looks like it came from a robotics startup We're getting very close to a world where manufacturing, AI and robotics stop being separate industries and start becoming the same thing

This is Siemens SGT 400 gas turbine. It can produce up to 12mw of power. Power that is essential to live - a human right basically. Look at it. It costs several million dollars. This is the tax developing world pays to Germany. What is in this thing that it can't be manufactured locally ? Ask yourself. Why is it so hard to replicate ? Is it always going to be like this ? We are in 2020s now. How about 2030 ? Do you think this will be manufactured locally in 2030 ? I don't think so. Software Tech is easily replicable due to the culture of open source. Manufacturing has no culture of open source. For right or wrong reasons. So even after 100 years of inventing this, most of of the world is still trying to figure out how to replicate this. And I think it will take 100 more years at this pace. Also, 2 decades of our smartest building ad software has resulted in this tech not moving forward. Everything in core hard tech is imported - turbines, machinery, electronics - you name it. So young smart people seeing this - please go and design this and make this cheaper. It's not just about India. The entire developing world needs this cheaply.

ELON: TESLA IS THE WORLD’S BIGGEST ROBOT MAKER AND AI SAFETY LEADER "Tesla is arguably the world's biggest robot maker, because we have basically semi-autonomous cars that will ultimately be fully autonomous. And we are building a humanoid robot that will be basically like the car, but with legs. I kind of held open doing that for a while because I certainly don't want to hasten the AI apocalypse. But clearly, when you look at Boston Dynamics and these humanoid robots, they're going to happen with or without Tesla. So with Tesla, I've got a lot more ability to ensure robotics safety and AI, and I'll try my best to do that." Source: ELON CLIPS

Today I assembled the first batch of reBot DevArm in the U.S! First one on the planet! 🇺🇸⚙️ But this isn’t about a robot arm. This is about what happens when open source hits robotics. For years: •Hardware was locked •Robotics was expensive •Embodied AI was out of reach Now? Anyone can get their hands on: •6 DOF manipulation •Real precision (<0.2 mm repeatability) •Full stack access (ROS, Isaac Sim, LeRobot) This is how movements start. Not in labs. Not behind paywalls. But in the hands of builders. Massive respect to Seeed Studio for pushing true open-source robotics forward! We’re about to see: → Thousands of robot arms trained like athletes → Real-world datasets explode → Physical AI built in garages, not just research labs At SoloTech , this is the unlock we’ve been waiting for, training and deploying Physical AI skill models on real hardware, anywhere. No sims. No vaporware. No excuses. Production Grade Physical AI. Want to get access? Check out the Physical AI Gym in San Francisco or DM me.

This is what open robotics actually looks like! 🔓 I was in Bordeaux, sitting inside Pollen Robotics, and had a chance to play around with their humanoid robot Reachy 2. It’s expressive, modular, and can even bring you coffee, and of course runs Python or Rust. I was talking with Reachy in 3 different languages, tele-operating it and manipulating kitchen stuff, and make it even mimic my gestures. The best part is that there are no locked APIs, or hidden stuff, just an open platform that you can build upon. The connection with Hugging Face makes it super easy to start, as the open source approach allows everyone to contribute, experiment and add their own things. I already ordered his little brother Reachy Mini, let's see what a robotics rookie can do with that robot! 👀 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Robots, unfortunately, tend to be expensive. And finding a robot that’s both capable of performing a wide variety of mobile manipulation tasks, and is affordable and “hackable”, is extremely difficult. Many different problems need to be addressed, from arm control to navigation to integrating your data collection strategy into hardware design. This can make it difficult for all but the most well-funded teams to “scale” real-world robotics research. Fortunately, the team behind Build Your Own Robot has a solution. Manan Anjaria, Mahi Shafiullah 🏠🤖,Jeff Cui, and Enes Erciyes joined us to talk about how they build a fully open-source mobile manipulator out of off-the-shelf parts, which has humanlike range of motion, and can perform a wide variety of tasks, all while being only roughly $10,000 to build.

Robots has a data problem, in that robotics data is rare. While human video is quite common, it’s not usually directly usable for robots for a variety of reasons, most significantly that it’s missing explicit, accurate robot actions. Instead, Jeremy Collins proposes that we predict keypoint trajectories — basically, how any given point in an object will move as a robot performs a task. This lets us use action-free human video to train robot skills. Learn more by watching Episode #37 of RoboPapers with Michael Cho - Rbt/Acc and Chris Paxton now.
