Tutorials

Five tutorials, in order. The first needs no hardware. From the second on, one project carries through: an SO-106 arm, a gripper, and a wrist camera.

  • 1. Gentle intro to Robotics. The words the rest of the course uses: joints, coordinates, kinematics, the control loop, and learned policies. Nothing to install.
  • 2. Your first Robot. A simulated SO-106. You write the arm, install the gripper, add a wrist camera, and drive it from the keyboard.
  • 3. The real robot. The same project on a desk: parts, assembly, a Raspberry Pi, calibration, and the keyboard on the real arm.
  • 4. Robot skills. The keyboard stops nudging joints. A skill you write, MoveSkill from a plugin, and a pretrained UMI policy take its place.
  • 5. Train a skill. Train a UMI policy on an example dataset, then record your own demonstrations with a Lumi and train again.
