Train your MicroDuck and win the Golden Beak Belt
12 followers
Imagine WWE SmackDown, but with cute, AI-trained robots. Eight teams spend days training reinforcement-learning policies for Pollen’s open-source MicroDuck, then we throw them in the simulator to fight for the Golden Beak Belt. The whole competition will be livestreamed. The catch: you’re not building a robot, you’re training its brain. Want in? Register a team, train your policy, or host a showdown in your city. When the real MicroDucks ship, we go IRL.

HuggingFace and Pollen Robotics caught the world by surprise by unveiling a new robot called Microduck.
Within days, they had pre-sold more than 10,000 units of the biped.
It could be just another "Kickstarter" project, where you put money in and hope it arrives on time.
Instead, the team shipped a simulator and a full training environment so you can already start teaching your robot some moves before it ships.
We've seen people teaching their virtual duck how to break dance or dance like a swan. But what caught my attention was JP's simulation, where a model was trained to let robots play sumo against each other.
This discovery led me to launch DuckFightClub, where robot aficionados meet to compare their training skills in the simulator and eventually in real life.
Do you have what it takes to train a model to play duck sumo, beat them all, and win the Golden Beak Belt?
The first event will be livestreamed on Youtube and some local IRL are already scheduled.
First rule of DuckFightClub: don't quack about it.
