展示HN：Mars – 面向建筑者的个人AI机器人（价格低于2000美元）
嗨，我们是Axel和Vignesh，Innate的联合创始人（<a href="https://www.innate.bot">https://www.innate.bot</a>）。我们刚刚推出了MARS，这是一款通用机器人，搭载了基于ROS2构建的开放式智能操作系统。

当我们开始时，觉得目前没有一个好的、可负担的通用平台供任何人构建。需求并不缺乏：hugging face的SO-100和LeKiwi已经是相当明显的成功；但硬件不可靠，软件体验简陋且不断变化，通常还需要购买隐藏的附加设备才能使其正常工作（比如一台配有良好GPU的电脑）。Turtlebots曾经不错，但现在逐渐过时。
开源爱好者运动缺乏真正好的构建平台，我们希望能有一个稳健且易于访问的解决方案。MARS是我们为每个人打造的第一个直观AI机器人的尝试。
<p>它的特点：</p>
- 预装和校准
- 配备Jetson Orin Nano 8GB的计算单元
- 5自由度的机械臂，带有手腕摄像头
- 传感器：RGBD广角摄像头、2D激光雷达、扬声器
- 通过专用应用程序和插入iPhone和Android的主臂进行控制
- 额外的2个USB端口 + GPIO引脚用于额外的传感器或执行器
- 以及我们新颖的SDK，名为BASIC，允许将其作为AI代理运行，支持可变长度的行为（VLA）。
它在一分钟内启动，可以通过手机控制，使用PC进行深度编程，板载代理使其能够实时看、说、计划和行动。
我们的SDK BASIC允许创建“行为”（我们对程序的称呼），从简单的“你好，世界”到涉及推理、规划、导航和操控的复杂长期任务。您可以通过训练机械臂或编写代码工具（如AI代理）来创建可以自主运行的技能。
您还可以调用ROS2主题以低级别控制机器人。在此SDK之上创建的任何内容都可以通过共享文件轻松与他人共享。
这款产品旨在面向爱好者和教育，我们非常希望收到您的反馈！
<p>附言：如果您想尝试，使用临时代码HACKERNEWS-INNATE-MARS可以将价格降低到$1,799。</p>
<p>再附言：硬件和软件也将开源，如果您想贡献或帮助我们做好准备，欢迎加入我们的Discord：<a href="https://discord.gg/YvqQbGKH" rel="nofollow">https://discord.gg/YvqQbGKH</a></p>

Hey, we’re Axel and Vignesh, cofounders of Innate (<a href="https://www.innate.bot/">https://www.innate.bot/</a>). We just launched MARS, a general-purpose robot with an open onboard agentic OS built on top of ROS2.<p>Overview: <a href="https://youtu.be/GEOMYDXv6pE" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/GEOMYDXv6pE</a><p>Control demo: <a href="https://youtu.be/_Cw5fGa8i3s" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/_Cw5fGa8i3s</a><p>Videos of autonomous use-cases: <a href="https://docs.innate.bot/welcome/mars-example-use-cases">https://docs.innate.bot/welcome/mars-example-use-cases</a><p>Quickstart: <a href="https://docs.innate.bot/welcome/mars-quick-start">https://docs.innate.bot/welcome/mars-quick-start</a>.<p>Our last thread: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42451707">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42451707</a><p>When we started we felt there is currently no good affordable general-purpose that anyone can build on. There’s no lack of demand: hugging face’s SO-100 and LeKiwi are pretty clear successes already; but the hardware is unreliable, the software experience is barebone and keeps changing, and you often need to buy hidden extras to make them work (starting with a computer with a good gpu). The Turtlebots were good, but are getting outdated.<p>The open-source hobbyist movement lacks really good platforms to build on, and we wanted something robust and accessible. MARS is our attempt at making a first intuitive AI robot for everyone.<p>What it is:<p>- It comes assembled and calibrated<p>- Has onboard compute with a jetson orin nano 8gb<p>- a 5DoF arm with a wrist camera<p>- Sensors: RGBD wide-angle cam, 2D LiDAR, speakers<p>- Control via a dedicated app and a leader arm that plugs in iPhone and Android<p>- 2 additional USB ports + GPIO pins for extra sensors or effectors.<p>- And our novel SDK called BASIC that allows to run it like an AI agent with VLAs.<p>It boots in a minute, can be controlled via phone, programmable in depth with a PC, and the onboard agent lets it see, talk, plan, and act in real-time.<p>Our SDK BASIC allows to create “behaviors” (our name for programs) ranging from a simple hello world to a very complex long-horizon task involving reasoning, planning, navigation and manipulation. You can create skills that behaviors can run autonomously by training the arm or writing code tools, like for an AI agent.<p>You can also call the ROS2 topics to control the robot at a low-level. And anything created on top of this SDK can be easily shared with anyone else by just sharing the files.<p>This is intended for hobbyist builders and education, and we would love to have your feedback!<p>p.s. If you want to try it, there’s a temporary code HACKERNEWS-INNATE-MARS that lowers the price to $1,799.<p>p.p.s The hardware and software will be open-sourced too, if some of you want to contribute or help us prepare it properly feel free to join our discord at <a href="https://discord.gg/YvqQbGKH" rel="nofollow">https://discord.gg/YvqQbGKH</a>
