Praveen Kumar Verma(@Alacritic_Super):Don't let the tiny duck fool you… there's a serious robot hiding inside. Meet Microduck from Pollen Robotics. It is a compact biped robot packed with 15 motors, a camera, ToF LiDAR, IMUs, microphones, a speaker and an articulated beak. And the best part? The software is open source. You can create behaviors, train policies in simulation and bring them to the real robot. A tiny duck learning to walk, crouch, grasp objects and recover from falls? That's not just cute. That's a pretty fun robotics platform.

FinTech by day. At night I build DIY robots that think with their bodies. Embodied AI, microcontrollers & open-source hardware for makers. DM for collab.
