Software Components

Autonomous mode

Vision Large Language Models (VLLMs)

Dropbear uses Large Language Models for it's ability to process and understand human language. Vision LLMs extend the capabilities of traditional LLMs by integrating visual data processing, enabling dropbear to not just "see" but understand and interpret visual information in a contextually relevant manner. image

  • Natural Language Understanding: Dropbear understands spoken or written instructions.
  • Object Recognition: Dropbear can identify and categorize objects within it's visual field.
  • Navigation: Dropbear can navigate complex environments by recognizing landmarks and obstacles.
  • Interaction: Dropbear can engage in conversational AI, providing responses and acting on user commands.
  • Learning: Continuously improves through interactions, adapting to new phrases and contexts.
Dropbear utilizes a pre-trained model (LLaVA-1.6 8B), finetuned for robotic applications, enhanced by continuous learning from interactions.

Utilization of Open X-Embodiment Data

Open X-Embodiment RT-2 shows that vision-language models (VLMs) can be transformed into powerful vision-language-action (VLA) models, which can directly control a robot by combining VLM pre-training with robotic data. image

Teleoperation mode

Dropbear can be used as a proxy avatar by controlling the robot using VR gear like a motion-tracking suit, etc. The robot precisely mimics your actions. While interacting with physical objects, VR gloves give you sensation feedback for an immersive teleportation-like experience.
