Meet the twin
sim2realthat works
Trained in sim, deployed on the real robot. This is the simulated twin the ducks were trained on.
Fun out of the box. Yours to retrain.
Teach it newtricks
Every behaviour is a policy you can retrain on your own machine.
01
Train in simulation
Behaviours are learned in physics sim, on your machine or on Hugging Face Jobs.
02
Deploy on the robot
One step from simulation to the real thing.
03
Refine the simulation
Tune, re-train, re-deploy.
04
Publish the policy
Share your new behavior with the community!
Walk
Velocity-tracking gait.
Sit & stand
Sits down, holds the pose, stands back up on its own.
Kick
A one-shot boot, then straight back to walking.
Grab
