PokeBot Releases Embodied API RoboAPI

2 reports · 2 sources

PokeBot released its first model product RoboAPI on October 30, a publicly accessible embodied API, and its world-action model Poke-Aurora made its debut at the same time. After developers connect RoboAPI to a compatible robotic arm, they do not need to collect data or train models; by issuing an instruction with a single prompt, the robotic arm can complete tasks in unseen environments that it has not been specifically trained for. Currently, the API is for non-commercial applications and does not provide products or services to for-profit third parties; developers can access it for free through the quick start documentation and the developer platform. PokeBot states that in its self-built large-scale evaluation, Poke-Aurora achieved success rates of 86.0%, 54.1%, and 87.7% on three types of tasks—object transfer and organization, pose and shape alignment, and environment interaction and tool use—respectively, all higher than GPT6 Astra and two open-source embodied models included in the comparison. PokeBot was also inspired by UMI and defined a configuration of "wrist fisheye camera plus end-effector pose control," mounting a consumer-grade fisheye action camera on the robotic arm's wrist, with both observation and control centered on the gripper end; PokeBot states that this greatly lowers the setup threshold and cost. More technical details are expected to be announced in the Poke-Aurora technical report.

Report timeline

  1. Poke Robotics releases embodied API RoboAPI, paired with world-action model Poke-Aurora

    Poke Robotics has released RoboAPI, an embodied API for the real physical world. After connecting and adapting a robotic arm, developers can issue commands with a single prompt without collecting data or training models. Its self-developed world-action model Poke-Aurora, in the company's own large-scale evaluation, achieved success rates of 86.0%, 54.1%, and 87.7% on three task categories—object transfer and organization, pose and shape alignment, and environment interaction and tool use—all higher than GPT6 Astra and two open-source embodied models included in the comparison.

  2. PokeBot releases embodied API RoboAPI, world-action model Poke-Aurora debuts

    PokeBot released its first model product, RoboAPI, in the early hours of October 30. It is a publicly accessible, out-of-the-box embodied API: after developers connect and adapt a robotic arm, they need neither to collect data nor train models, and can issue commands with a single prompt to execute tasks the model was not specifically trained on.
