Developer tests Go2 and G1 policies in LiDAR-reconstructed office twin, mostly failures
1 reports · 1 sources
A developer tested pretrained policies for the Go2 (with dual SO-101 robotic arms) and the 29-joint G1 in MuJoCo simulation within a digital twin of an office reconstructed using an Ouster OS0 LiDAR and phone imagery, with mostly failures: in tests where the G1 walking policy superimposed an arm-raising motion on flat ground, it fell down all 12 times; one corrected Go2 grasp-and-place landed only 1.68 mm from the target, but the author says this is a single success that does not indicate repeatability, and reruns still fail. The author emphasizes this is entirely simulation rather than a real-robot demonstration, and that what is being tested is their controller setup, not the upper limit of the real robot's capabilities. Collisions between robots in the shared scene have been disabled, and multi-robot obstacle avoidance as well as mass and contact parameters remain to be validated.

- Testing Go2 and G1 policies in a LiDAR-reconstructed office digital twin: grasp failures, falls, and collision shortcuts
A developer tested a Go2 equipped with dual SO-101 robotic arms and a 29-joint G1 in MuJoCo simulation within an office digital twin reconstructed from an Ouster OS0 LiDAR and phone imagery; this was purely simulation, not a real-robot demonstration. The G1 walking policy fell in all 12 trials on flat ground when an arm-raise motion was superimposed; a corrected Go2 grasp-and-place run landed 1.68 mm from the target, but reruns still failed. Inter-robot collisions were disabled in the shared scene, and multi-robot obstacle avoidance as well as mass and contact parameters remain to be validated.
