Hardware testing partners.

The final test for a robot policy is a real robot. Not every team has the hardware it wants to train for, and simulation results are only a forecast until they are checked on the machine.

If you can provide access to physical units, such as a lab, a fleet, or loaner hardware, we would like to work out together how Optimus can schedule tests on them and bring the results back into the run record. It gives customers a way to validate on your hardware before they commit to it.

How the hardware testing partnership works

Steps

  1. 01

    Share access

    You give us access to the product, its technical documentation, and a contact on your engineering team.

  2. 02

    We integrate

    We build the integration and write the documentation Optimus follows, so it knows when to use your product and how.

  3. 03

    Test together

    We run it in a real training setup and check the results with you before anything reaches a customer.

  4. 04

    Go live

    Optimus can select your product in customer runs, on commercial terms we agree with you.

For researchers

If you work on robot learning, bring the robot and the task. Optimus can build the simulation, run the training, and keep a record of every attempt, so your lab spends its time on the research question. We are open to publishing results together.

Academic labs, independent researchers, and open-source teams can apply for up to $30,000 in Iacon credits through our research grants.

Talk to us

If a training run consumes what you sell, we should talk. Book a time directly, or write to dev@iaconautonomics.com and tell us which layer you supply.
