What it does

  • Provides a hardware-agnostic Python Robot interface that standardizes control across platforms from low-cost arms to humanoids.
  • Defines the LeRobotDataset format (Parquet plus MP4 or images) hosted on the Hugging Face Hub for storing and streaming robot data.
  • Implements imitation learning, reinforcement learning, vision-language-action, world model, and reward model policies in PyTorch.
  • Offers a unified evaluation script that runs policies in simulation benchmarks such as LIBERO and MetaWorld or on real hardware.
  • Supports a range of robots and teleoperation devices natively, and can be extended with custom robots or third-party plugins.
  • Includes tools to record, train, visualize and share models and datasets via the Hugging Face Hub.

Robots on Robotheca that use it

No robot on Robotheca is linked to it yet. Links come from a robot's robot.yaml, from its dependency files read as text, or from Robotheca's editors.

Robotheca lists software as a reference: nothing is hosted or run here, and every fact links to where it was read.
