Menlo Research announced in the r/robotics community that it has open-sourced the Menlo SDK for the Asimov 1 humanoid robot.
The Menlo SDK currently supports only one piece of hardware, the Asimov 1.
Menlo Research's Emre shared the team's internal usage in the post, including replaying recorded robotic arm movements, controlling the upper body via a VR headset, and running trained policy models on the Asimov 1.
The team positions swinging arms while walking as a prerequisite capability toward 'carrying and handling objects while in motion'.
Asimov 1 is an open-source humanoid robot project with code hosted in the menloresearch/asimov-1 repository on GitHub.
The information in this article comes from a progress share of the project on Reddit; for details, the GitHub repository should be taken as the authoritative source.
Asimov 1 has chosen to make its full mechanical, electrical, and software stack public, maintaining a daily-updated development log.
The development process of the Asimov 1 project is conducted publicly and has been documented up to day 352.
The Asimov 1 robot can now move its arms while walking.
