🏆🏆🏆Seeed's Global Physical AI Map is continuously expanding! We're proud to announce that @robostadion_sin (ロボ☆スタディオン) has been selected as the Japan City Co-Host! 🔧What you can actually do there 1. Run the whole #PhysicalAI loop in a… |
We cut π0.5 inference from 230 ms to 87 ms on a laptop GPU, without pruning or distillation. The rollout code from our IROS demo is open source: https://t.co/Syfh1SiQfJ https://t.co/vBzcG5BSsU |
So many SO-ARMs! 💪 Here is the robotics workshop organized at @NVIDIAGTC Berlin that uses SO-ARM101 and LeRobot to control real and simulated robotic arms. The light box makes it easier to get policies working in any location and light… |
A robotic arm that learns physical tasks by watching you demonstrate them. Meet the SO-101, an open-source robotic arm supported by Hugging Face's LeRobot. ‣ 3D-print the parts and assemble the arm ‣ Demonstrate a task using the leader arm… |
Tell your robot what you want, in plain words. New in LeRobot: a vision-language model breaks your goal into skills your robot's brain already knows, steers it step by step, and answers questions as it works. Demo: https://t.co/Z2IedqUMdu… |
We are happy to annouced @iuliaferoli just dropped a hands-on video walkthrough using the #reBotArmB601 and our free Seeed × @NVIDIARobotics DLI course. The full Physical AI lifecycle, in real code: → Chapter 1: Data collection with the… |
🤖 Pick a task. Watch your robot arm get to work! SO-ARM + pi0.5 VLA supports 3 trained pick-and-place tasks. 👀 See → 🦾 Pick → 📦 Place No coding. No manual teaching. Just pick a task! 🔗1000 credits for free: https://t.co/k57gf78SXu… |
💥 LeRobot × Zenoh Remote inference just landed in LeRobot: the policy runs on a GPU server or cloud, the robot keeps moving. Cameras, motors and recording stay on the robot computer, actions stream back. What this unblocks: 🤖 Robot side:… |
From human demos to autonomous action 🤖 Using @huggingface @LeRobotHF , @knaveen trained an #ACT policy for Seeed’s #SOARM101, collecting 100K data steps and training for 11 hours. The #robot arm can now pick up a cube and place it into a… |
Can 200 VR demonstrations teach two robot arms to work together? 🤖 We fine-tuned #SmolVLA with @huggingface @LeRobotHF using 200 VR #teleoperation demos and 3 camera views: left wrist, right wrist, and overview. Deployed on our reBot… |
Training a robot to grasp an object means learning from many attempts, viewpoints and situations. One robot with three cameras at 20 fps produces 216,000 images per hour. Now that robotics is scaling, how can we efficiently train on all… |
Running #SOARM101 + #LeRobot on Windows 11? The tricky part is getting Windows and Linux to talk to the robot. @MaetschkeStefan from @makerguides_com put together a hands-on walkthrough. The key detail: Windows sees the CH343 adapters as… |
This Unitree Go2 uses an SO101 arm with extended links to collect trash. When an object is detected within the arm’s reachability region, the robot lowers its body to reach it. I like how the legs and arm work together to handle the… |
Renting design is the easy part. Qualification cycles for safety-critical actuators run 14 to 18 months per configuration. Tooling validation, supplier audits, IEC 62443 compliance. That pipeline does not compress because you found a… |
