Hi all, excited to share our latest work, OK-Robot, which is an open and modular framework to perform navigation and manipulation with a robot assistant in practically any homes without having to teach the robot anything new!

We’d spend hours cleaning, but with kids and pets, the floors never stayed clean for long. We tried all the various robovacs, but they actually made things worse. They chewed up wires, got lost searching for the dock, and one even tore up an expensive rug after getting stuck on it for an hour! And we weren’t the only ones — friends and family had similar frustrations. So we decided to build something new from the ground up. Something that would just……
