Robotics development made dead simple (open source)
17 points by Ekami 2 days ago
Hey everyone,

My team and I have been working hard on this project: https://peppy.bot

It's a direct replacement for ROS 2. We already have the OpenArm robot (https://openarm.dev) working on the platform, both v1.0 and v2.0, plus Isaac Sim and MuJoCo integration.

If you're in a hurry, head over to https://docs.peppy.bot/quickstart/ and get started in 5min.

Our long term vision is to allow anyone (even non-devs) to go from a prompt to real humanoid robot actions, first in simulation, then on the physical robot.

Happy to answer any question.

This is just an elaborate mailing list sign up page.

the splash page at https://peppy.bot says chat to get started. no matter what you type you get a popup that says Coming Soon - sign up to our e-mail list.

Links mentioned in the post:

Peppy: https://peppy.bot

Quickstart (about 5 minutes): https://docs.peppy.bot/quickstart/

OpenArm: https://openarm.dev

Why is this garbage on the front page?
The prompt box on the landing page is fake. On submit, it just asks you to sign up for a mailing list.

Do you honestly think that just after telling me that you lied to me earlier, I'd be inclined to give you my personal details?

How hard was it to source your open arm robot? Curious how much it cost all in?
