In plain words
Browse 61 3D Printable Robots is a collection platform for building robotics projects with 3D-printed components. It supports multiple controller types including Raspberry Pi, Nvidia Jetson, Arduino, and ESP32, providing a centralized hub for robot designs that other platforms like Instructables and Thingiverse do not focus on. The site offers STL files for download, bill-of-materials links, estimated costs, and AI-generated building guides for each project. It targets both individual builders and those using autonomous agents to construct robots.

Robotics is advancing really fast lately, with AI inference, different controllers, software, and parts always changing. I wanted a place that supports many device types, Raspberry Pi, NVDA Jetson, Arduino, ESP32, hardware sources, and maximizes for printability. Instructables, Github, and Thingiverse are currently popular but aren't really focused on robotics, So I built orobot.io to try and make printing robots as standardized and accessible as possible. It uses a lot of Agent built content custom to each project, and every project is designed to be used by humans or your agent. Features: - Photos and Estimated Prices for all projects - Links back to source GitHub projects - LLMs write descriptions and tips on how to build - View + Download 3d printable STL files in browser - BOM purchase links are kept up to date with LLMs checking Amazon link health - LLMs write Javascript install and controller wrappers custom to each project so a single one-click install works across many frameworks and controller types - Public skill files, clis, and prompts let your agent do everything it needs to walk you through the complexity. It's still pretty new, so somethings are broken, and there's a lot more I want to build. But I'm very interested to have people try it out let me know if they want to use something like this and give me feedback about where they ran into problems so I can fix it. Thank you HN!

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
