Microduck
Launched this week
Microduck is a 25cm, $399 open-source bipedal robot built by Hugging Face and Pollen Robotics. It’s designed for sim-to-real reinforcement learning. It ships with 7 pre-trained behaviors and an Apache 2.0 software stack you can clone, modify, and retrain.

the sim-to-real part is what i'd actually want to know more about. training in the browser sim and just dropping it onto the real robot sounds great in a demo but usually there's a gap - does it walk fine on the first try or does it need retraining once it's on actual hardware
Love that you made a real bipedal robot hackable under Apache 2.0, turning sim-to-real RL from a lab luxury into something anyone can retrain on their desk.
