Innate is a team of 7 building capable robots for everyday life.
"The seven of us here do the work of 50," says Vignesh Anand, co-founder of @innate_bot.
We spent time with the team to capture what building means to them.

dream weekend at robohacks by @innate_bot at the @ycombinator office.
my first exposure to hardware was so fun! we got a special mention for the @GoogleDeepMind track. will drop details of the project below

Spent the weekend in the @ycombinator office and placed top 5 at RoboHacks!
We built Hour of Roboticsβ Hour of Code but for Robotics with block-based programming and in-browser simulation.
thanks @innate_bot @HackIterate @GoogleDeepMind @PalatialSim

Another look at yesterdayβs Robohacks hackathon at YCombinator in San Francisco.

Just a little taste of the Robohacks hackathon happening now at @ycombinator in San Francisco.
This is only two of the teams.
The first is a team building a robot for an AirBnb on Mars.
The second built a system that 3D prints new tools for the robot to do new work on Mars.
Both demonstrate why I love builders so much.
Dreaming of a new world and learning together how to build for a new robot none of them have used before.

π Over 1000 registrants for the RoboHacks Hackathon this morning at @ycombinator!
And a *ton* of @Raspberry_Pi, Jetson Nano, 3D printers, and more. β at San Francisco, CA

Was a lot of fun to see in person
Was at RoboHacks with Lumi hosted by @ycombinator @innate_bot @HackIterate
What a crowd and vibeοΌ
Got to see WALL-E and had a robo crewοΌ
Great chatting w/ @GoogleDeepMind @scale_AI @UFBots @PrismaXai @ivanleomk @chrisrilling @chris_j_paxton @HSlifelearner @DhruvDiddi
Congrats guys
Won the best local/edge ai at RoboHacks this weekend with a project called LMAO π€£
We replaced @innate_botβs out-of-the-box gemini server with a fully local vision stack
Thx for organizing @ax_pey !

π€ @chris_j_paxton from @agilityrobotics at @ycombinator, demonstrating how robotics has finally gone mainstream!
And hardware and robotic perception has only just begun its takeoff β if you thought generative models were a rocketship, hardware is going to blow y'all's minds: β at San Francisco, CA

First impressions:
- way faster and more responsive than I was expecting
- toddler has named him Herman

Introducing MARS, the first Personal AI Robot.
In technology, getting to the future we want starts with building it together.
This is why we designed Mars. Inspired by early PCs, Mars is a powerful, complete, extendable robot.
It runs BASIC, an open embodied AI agent we created for you to program with code, demonstrations, and prompts. This allows Mars to perform complex long-horizon tasks involving spatial memory, reasoning, manipulation and navigation.
Pre-orders open now
β¬οΈ Demos & details in the thread

This is the year of mobile manipulators π€
We are soon releasing a small, affordable, open-source one for the AI & robotics community
β’ Onboard compute
β’ Smooth teleop
β’ Complete suite of sensors + extensible

Experiment of the day: How would @danylo_movchan's dog react to being fed by a robot?
Maybe one day they will be friends

Can you teach your mobile robot without a computer in 30 seconds?
Yes, with a phone connected to a teleop arm! π¦Ύπ²
Here grabbing up a ping-pong ball for @Vignesh_Robots
Want one?
Come build in the open with us @innate_bot !
