The human approach to robotics

À propos

A human approach to robotics. We believe that the robot revolution will be open source and powered by a community of makers, hackers and researchers sharing knowledge and resources to create the highly customised robotic solutions that the seamless automation of daily life demands. This is an intimate technology that will be trusted with the security of our homes, the care of our pets and even our loved ones and only a transparent, open platform will enable robots to reach their full potential. The over two decades we have developed robots that copy the human anatomy more closer than any others to produce a series of prototypes that have a naturally pleasing style of movement - it turns out that robots that are built like us are just easier to be around. Controlling a robot with a human like body though has always been a challenge and it is only now with the advent of AI driven simulation and control that the robots are finally starting to leave the lab. We are open to investors to help bring this platform to researchers around the world as a delivered product as well as to makers and hackers everywhere as an open source release with the aim of fostering a community that can address the development at all levels - from user to leading AI researcher and back again.

    I want to foster a community that changes the world. In a literal sense, the widespread adoption of robots is exactly that: the power to change the physical world with digital systems. HOPELite community link: https://lnkd.in/diuhTqSz Open source has a crucial role to play in the development of this technology only if the tools are available to make that a practical reality for the masses. Open source software would clearly be a nonsense if they weren't billions of devices readily available for coding. To this end, lowering cost whilst maintaining “an adequate level of functionality” is the highest design constraint. The intention is to lever the tremendous performance increases that AI software offers to offset the significant differences in low-cost hardware. This is the great promise that needs testing: can AI genuinely control much lower cost hardware and finally produce the robots that we've all been dreaming of? 3d printed plastic robot parts offer tremendous precision but significantly lower stiffness, a trait that is true in fact of all the lower cost versions of components in a robot. Here there may be a happy coincidence because the problem with expensive hardware is that it cannot be safely used around people. Industrial robots are made of metal and remarkably stiff gearboxes to produce rapid, highly precise movements - like a robot. But people don't move that way, we are bouncy and capable of feats of strength and precision that far outperform an industrial machine of similar weight and power. So, we know it's possible to learn how to control a bouncy system and we know they're lower cost. All that's missing are the plans and instructions to build a DIY population of humanoid robots. I'll start releasing those plans to early stage testers in December, this year. The HOPELite! A low-cost, DIY, open-source, humanoid platform optimised for ease of use/maintenance.

  • We're nearing the magical "play" threshold! Potent times ahead when the hard work starts becoming fun :-)

    So impressed by how fast we managed to setup this demo: - 50 training examples - full end-to-end policy (no teleoperation) - quasi-full open-source software and hardware (even Reachy-1’s hardware is open-source CC-BY-SA CAO assembly) Starring Matthieu Lapeyre’s dog, Pollen Robotics coming Reachy 2 robot, Hugging Face LeRobot library from Remi Cadene and Haixuan Xavier Tao Dora rs library Some technical links for the curious: - Pollen-robotics: https://lnkd.in/ekpnGPNN - LeRobot Discord: https://lnkd.in/eTrgmww2 - Dora-rs: https://lnkd.in/ez2V4z7J

  • Another day, another iteration! The Standard Open ARM100 a 5dof, open, low-cost, 3dprinted robot arm with a 500g payload that can built for under $100 USD - assuming you have a 3dprinter with filament, a place to work and bunch of hand tools. Plus a computer to run the software - though at least most of that is free, assuming you have the internet, and electricity and a weather proof place to work 😁 https://lnkd.in/dbCU6WA9
