Humanoids need data. Lots and lots of data.
Introducing HumanoidMimicGen: a method that automatically generates 1000s of humanoid loco-manipulation demonstrations from a single teleoperated demonstration.
Glad to contribute and be a part of the team! :)
Excited to announce GR00T N1, the world’s first open foundation model for humanoid robots! We are on a mission to democratize Physical AI. The power of general robot brain, in the palm of your hand - with only 2B parameters, N1 learns from the most diverse physical action dataset ever compiled and punches above its weight:
- Real humanoid teleoperation data.
- Large-scale simulation data: we are open-sourcing 300K+ trajectories!
- Neural trajectories: we apply SOTA video generation models to “hallucinate” new synthetic data that features accurate physics in pixels. Using Jensen’s words, “systematically infinite data”!
- Latent actions: we develop novel algorithms to extract action tokens from in-the-wild human videos and neural generated videos.
GR00T N1 is a single end-to-end neural net, from photons to actions:
- Vision-Language Model (System 2) that interprets the physical world through vision and language instructions, enabling robots to reason about their environment and instructions, and plan the right actions.
- Diffusion Transformer (System 1) that “renders” smooth and precise motor actions at 120 Hz, executing the latent plan made by System 2.
We deploy N1 on GR1 robot, 1X Neo robot, and a large collection of simulation benchmarks. N1 achieves up to +30% boost in diverse manipulation tasks for household and industrial settings.
While humanoid robots are the main focus of N1, our model also supports cross-embodiment. We finetune it to work on the $110 HuggingFace LeRobot SO100 robot arm! Open robot brain runs on open hardware. Sounds just right.
Let’s solve robotics, together, one token at a time.

The jittery legs and anxious energy made me want to add a soundtrack

📊 In our preliminary experiment results, we benchmarked 7 state-of-the-art imitation learning and demo-driven reinforcement learning algorithms on all tasks, and show that existing algorithms are not yet capable of solving the challenging BiGym tasks.
