LeRobot

Open-source library for end-to-end machine learning in real-world robotics

Visit github.com ↗

LeRobot is Hugging Face's open-source library designed to make AI for robotics accessible through end-to-end learning. It provides standardized tools, pretrained models, datasets, and simulation environments to train and deploy neural network policies on physical robots.

What it's for

  • Train imitation learning and reinforcement learning policies for robotic manipulators
  • Collect and format real-world teleoperation datasets using standard Hugging Face tools
  • Evaluate robotic control models in simulation benchmarks before deploying to hardware
  • Deploy pretrained models onto low-cost desktop arms and humanoid robots

Features

  • Pretrained models and policy implementations (e.g., ACT, Diffusion Policy)
  • Standardized dataset format integrated directly with Hugging Face Hub
  • Simulation environment support for bench testing and rapid iteration
  • Hardware integration for affordable robot arms and components
  • Docker support including community setups for NVIDIA Jetson platforms

Pricing

Open source. Free and open source (Apache 2.0)
