Research papers, community projects, tutorials, and industry news — everything you need to follow the world of open source humanoid robotics.
From 15 Dynamixel servos to a headless Rust daemon architecture and on-device RL policies, here is how the open-source community can customize, train, and expand Microduck.
FlashDreams is NVIDIA's Apache 2.0 inference framework for real-time autoregressive world models. Built for robotics synthetic training data and sim-to-real pipelines, it delivers 68–103 FPS closed-loop generation with OmniDreams on GB300, and ships first-party integrations for OmniDreams, Cosmos-Predict2.5, and Self-Forcing.
NVIDIA's Isaac GR00T Reference Robot drops the full stack — hardware, simulation, models, deployment — under open licenses. Here's why that changes the economics of starting a robotics company.
NVIDIA's COMPASS uses residual reinforcement learning and policy distillation to deploy a single navigation policy across wheeled and legged platforms — with zero-shot sim-to-real transfer on the Unitree G1 humanoid.
