Reachy Mini is an expressive, open-source robot kit by Pollen Robotics & Hugging Face. Designed for AI experimentation and creative coding, it's fully programmable in Python and deeply integrated with the HF ecosystem.
Hi everyone!
Co-hunting with @sentry_co to share Reachy Mini. Desktop robots are a natural entry point for companion AI, and this new gadget from Hugging Face and Pollen Robotics is clearly their answer to what that should look like.
Their approach is all about being fully open-source. You can program your own personalized behaviors in Python, and the community can build and share them on the Hugging Face Hub. There are already a ton of fun examples in Spaces showing what's possible.
I also have to say, I really like the design. It has a kind of mechanical cuteness to it that I think a lot of people will be into.
