LeRobot aims to provide models, datasets, and tools for real-world robotics in PyTorch. The goal is to lower the barrier to entry so that everyone can contribute to and benefit from shared datasets and pretrained models.

🤗 A hardware-agnostic, Python-native interface that standardizes control across diverse platforms, from low-cost arms (SO-100) to humanoids.

🤗 A standardized, scalable LeRobotDataset format (Parquet + MP4 or images) hosted on the Hugging Face Hub, enabling efficient storage, streaming and visualization of massive robotic datasets.

🤗 State-of-the-art policies that have been shown to transfer to the real-world ready for training and deployment.

🤗 Comprehensive support for the open-source ecosystem to democratize physical AI.

Quick Start

LeRobot can be installed directly from PyPI.

pip install lerobot
lerobot-info

[!IMPORTANT] For detailed installation guide, please see the Installation Documentation.

Robots & Control

<div align="center"> <img src="./media/readme/robots_control_video.webp" width="640px" alt="Reachy 2 Demo"> </div>

LeRobot provides a unified Robot class interface that decouples control logic from hardware specifics. It supports a wide range of robots and teleoperation devices.

from lerobot.robots.myrobot import MyRobot

# Connect to a robot
robot = MyRobot(config=...)
robot.connect()

# Read observation and send action
obs = robot.get_observation()
action = model.select_action(obs)
robot.send_action(action)

Supported Hardware: SO100, LeKiwi, Koch, HopeJR, OMX, EarthRover, Reachy2, Gamepads, Keyboards, Phones, OpenARM, Unitree G1, reBot B601.

While these devices are natively integrated into the LeRobot codebase, the library is designed to be extensible. You can easily implement the Robot interface to utilize LeRobot's data collection, training, and visualization tools for your own custom robot.

For detailed hardware setup guides, see the Hardware Documentation.

LeRobot Dataset

To solve the data fragmentation problem in robotics, we utilize the LeRobotDataset format.

• Structure: Synchronized MP4 videos (or images) for vision and Parquet files for state/action data.
• HF Hub Integration: Explore thousands of robotics datasets on the Hugging Face Hub.
• Tools: Seamlessly delete episodes, split by indices/fractions, add/remove features, and merge multiple datasets.

from lerobot.datasets.lerobot_dataset import LeRobotDataset

# Load a dataset from the Hub
dataset = LeRobotDataset("lerobot/aloha_mobile_cabinet")

# Access data (automatically handles video decoding)
episode_index=0
print(f"{dataset[episode_index]['action'].shape=}\n")

Learn more about it in the LeRobotDataset Documentation

SoTA Models

LeRobot implements state-of-the-art policies in pure PyTorch, covering Imitation Learning, Reinforcement Learning, Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, World Models, and Reward Models, with more coming soon. It also provides you with the tools to instrument and inspect your training process.

<p align="center"> <img alt="Gr00t Architecture" src="./media/readme/VLA_architecture.jpg" width="640px"> </p>

Training a policy is as simple as running a script configuration:

lerobot-train \
  --policy.type=act \
  --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/aloha_mobile_cabinet

Similarly to the hardware, you can easily implement your own policy & leverage LeRobot's data collection, training, and visualization tools, and share your model to the HF Hub

For detailed policy setup guides, see the Policy Documentation. For GPU/RAM requirements and expected training time per policy, see the Compute Hardware Guide.

Inference & Evaluation

Evaluate your policies in simulation or on real hardware using the unified evaluation script. LeRobot supports standard benchmarks like LIBERO, MetaWorld and more to come.

# Evaluate a policy on the LIBERO benchmark
lerobot-eval \
  --policy.path=lerobot/pi0_libero_finetuned \
  --env.type=libero \
  --env.task=libero_object \
  --eval.n_episodes=10

Learn how to implement your own simulation environment or benchmark and distribute it from the HF Hub by following the EnvHub Documentation
