Training Configuration

How to Get Started with the Model

New to LeRobot? These guides cover the full workflow:

• Install LeRobot — set up the lerobot package.
• Hardware setup — assemble, wire, and calibrate your robot and cameras.
• Record data & train a policy — the end-to-end imitation-learning walkthrough.
• CLI cheat-sheet — quick reference for the lerobot-* commands.

The short version to run and train this policy:

Run the policy on your robot

lerobot-rollout \
  --strategy.type=base \
  --robot.type=panda \
  --robot.port=<your_robot_port> \
  --robot.cameras="{ <camera_1>: {type: opencv, index_or_path: <index_or_path>, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}, <camera_2>: {type: opencv, index_or_path: <index_or_path>, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}" \
  --policy.path=araycn/smolvla_base_libero \
  --task="put the white mug on the left plate and put the yellow and white mug on the right plate" \
  --duration=60

Replace the remaining <...> placeholders with your own values: --robot.port and the camera names/indices are specific to your machine, and the camera names must match the observation keys this policy was trained on.

When --strategy.type=base is used the script doesn't record the episodes. Skipping duration will make the policy run indefinitely. For more information look at rollout documentation.

Train your own policy

This policy type is usually fine-tuned from the pretrained base model lerobot/smolvla_base:

lerobot-train \
  --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/<dataset> \
  --policy.path=lerobot/smolvla_base \
  --output_dir=outputs/train/<policy_repo_id> \
  --job_name=lerobot_training \
  --policy.device=cuda \
  --policy.repo_id=${HF_USER}/<policy_repo_id> \
  --wandb.enable=true

Writes checkpoints to outputs/train/<policy_repo_id>/checkpoints/.

Evaluation

<!-- Report real-robot results here: run the policy several times per task and count the successes. Delete the "No evaluation results" line and fill in this table instead: | Task | Trials | Successes | Success rate | | ---- | ------ | --------- | ------------ | | pick the lego brick | 10 | 8 | 80% | Also worth noting: anything that affects difficulty (new object positions, lighting, distractors, a different robot of the same type, ...). -->
