-## Project Overview
-
-LeRobot is a PyTorch-based library for real-world robotics, providing datasets, pretrained policies, and tools for training, evaluation, data collection, and robot control. It integrates with Hugging Face Hub for model/dataset sharing.
-
-## Tech Stack
-
-Python 3.12+ · PyTorch · Hugging Face (datasets, Hub, accelerate) · draccus (config/CLI) · Gymnasium (envs) · uv (package management)
-
-## Development Setup
-
-```bash
-uv sync --locked                            # Base dependencies
-uv sync --locked --extra test --extra dev   # Test + dev tools
-uv sync --locked --extra all                # Everything
-git lfs install && git lfs pull             # Test artifacts
-```
-
-## Key Commands
-
-```bash
-uv run pytest tests -svv --maxfail=10                 # All tests
-DEVICE=cuda make test-end-to-end                      # All E2E tests
-pre-commit run --all-files                           # Lint + format (ruff, typos, bandit, etc.)
-```
-
-## Architecture (`src/lerobot/`)
-
- **`scripts/`** — CLI entry points (`lerobot-train`, `lerobot-eval`, `lerobot-record`, etc.), mapped in `pyproject.toml [project.scripts]`.
- **`configs/`** — Dataclass configs parsed by draccus. `train.py` has `TrainPipelineConfig` (top-level). `policies.py` has `PreTrainedConfig` base. Polymorphism via `draccus.ChoiceRegistry` with `@register_subclass("name")` decorators.
- **`policies/`** — Each policy in its own subdir. All inherit `PreTrainedPolicy` (`nn.Module` + `HubMixin`) from `pretrained.py`. Factory with lazy imports in `factory.py`.
- **`processor/`** — Data transformation pipeline. `ProcessorStep` base with registry. `DataProcessorPipeline` / `PolicyProcessorPipeline` chain steps.
- **`datasets/`** — `LeRobotDataset` (episode-aware sampling + video decoding) and `LeRobotDatasetMetadata`.
- **`envs/`** — `EnvConfig` base in `configs.py`, factory in `factory.py`. Each env subclass defines `gym_kwargs` and `create_envs()`.
- **`robots/`, `motors/`, `cameras/`, `teleoperators/`** — Hardware abstraction layers.
- **`types.py`** and **`configs/types.py`** — Core type aliases and feature type definitions.
-
-## Repository Structure (outside `src/`)
-
- **`tests/`** — Pytest suite organized by module. Fixtures in `tests/fixtures/`, mocks in `tests/mocks/`. Hardware tests use skip decorators from `tests/utils.py`. E2E tests via `Makefile` write to `tests/outputs/`.
- **`.github/workflows/`** — CI: `quality.yml` (pre-commit), `fast_tests.yml` (base deps, every PR), `full_tests.yml` (all extras + E2E + GPU, post-approval), `latest_deps_tests.yml` (daily lockfile upgrade), `security.yml` (TruffleHog), `release.yml` (PyPI publish on tags).
- **`docs/source/`** — HF documentation (`.mdx` files). Per-policy READMEs, hardware guides, tutorials. Built separately via `docs-requirements.txt` and CI workflows.
- **`examples/`** — End-user tutorials and scripts organized by use case (dataset creation, training, hardware setup).
- **`docker/`** — Dockerfiles for user (`Dockerfile.user`) and CI (`Dockerfile.internal`).
- **`benchmarks/`** — Performance benchmarking scripts.
- **Root files**: `pyproject.toml` (single source of truth for deps, build, tool config), `Makefile` (E2E test targets), `uv.lock`, `CONTRIBUTING.md` & `README.md` (general information).
-
-## Notes
-
- **Mypy is gradual**: strict only for `lerobot.envs`, `lerobot.configs`, `lerobot.optim`, `lerobot.model`, `lerobot.cameras`, `lerobot.motors`, `lerobot.transport`. Add type annotations when modifying these modules.
- **Optional dependencies**: many policies, envs, and robots are behind extras (e.g., `lerobot[aloha]`). New imports for optional packages must be guarded or lazy. See `pyproject.toml [project.optional-dependencies]`.
- **Video decoding**: datasets can store observations as video files. `LeRobotDataset` handles frame extraction, but tests need ffmpeg installed.
- **Prioritize use of `uv run`** to execute Python commands (not raw `python` or `pip`).

-# AI Usage Policy
-
-The LeRobot project welcomes contributions from everyone, and we have a few guidelines regarding AI usage to ensure high code quality, clear communication, and a healthy open-source ecosystem:
-
- **Please disclose significant AI assistance.** If you used AI tools (e.g., Copilot, Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT) to generate a substantial portion of your code or text, let us know in your PR description. Transparency helps us review your changes more effectively.
- **Own your code (The Human-in-the-Loop).** You must fully understand all the changes you are proposing. If you cannot explain what your AI-assisted code does or how it interacts with LeRobot's broader architecture, please take the time to learn and test it before submitting.
- **Keep issues and discussions focused.** You are welcome to use AI to help draft issues or PR descriptions, but please review and edit them carefully before posting. AI can often be overly verbose; trimming the noise and getting straight to the point helps our maintainers address your needs faster.
-
-Our core maintainers also use AI tools to aid their workflows, but they do so while bringing deep contextual knowledge of the LeRobot codebase to validate the output. We ask all contributors to apply that same level of rigor.
-
-## Remember the Human Maintainers
-
-Please remember that LeRobot is maintained by a dedicated team of humans.
-
-Every discussion, issue, and pull request is read and reviewed by real people. While AI tools can generate thousands of lines of code in seconds, reviewing that code still takes human time and energy. Submitting unverified or low-effort AI output puts an unfair burden on our maintainers.
-
-Today, the quality of the AI output still heavily depends on the developer driving the tool. We ask that you respect our maintainers' time by thoroughly vetting, testing, and refining your submissions.
-
-## AI is Welcome Here
-
-LeRobot operates at the cutting edge of AI and robotics, and many of our maintainers actively embrace AI coding assistants as valuable productivity tools. We are a pro-AI project!
-
-Our reason for having an AI policy is not an anti-AI stance. Rather, it exists to ensure that AI is used to enhance human contributions, not replace them with unverified noise. It's about how the tools are used, not the tools themselves.
-
-We value the unique human insight you bring to the LeRobot community. Let AI empower your workflow, but always let your own judgment take the wheel.

-To contribute code, you need to set up a development environment.
+If you are not sure how to contribute or want to know the next features we working on, look on this project page: [LeRobot TODO](https://github.com/orgs/huggingface/projects/46)

-### 1. Fork and Clone
+## Submitting a new issue or feature request

-Fork the repository on GitHub, then clone your fork:
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/<your-handle>/lerobot.git
-cd lerobot
-git remote add upstream https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot.git
-```
-
-### 2. Environment Installation
-
-Please follow our [Installation Guide](https://huggingface.co/docs/lerobot/installation) for the environment setup & installation from source.
-
-## Running Tests & Quality Checks
-
-### Code Style (Pre-commit)
-
-Install `pre-commit` hooks to run checks automatically before you commit:
-
-```bash
-pre-commit install
-```
-
-To run checks manually on all files:
-
-```bash
-pre-commit run --all-files
-```
-
-### Running Tests
-
-We use `pytest`. First, ensure you have test artifacts by installing **git-lfs**:
+Do your best to follow these guidelines when submitting an issue or a feature
+request. It will make it easier for us to come back to you quickly and with good
+feedback.
+
+### Did you find a bug?
+
+The 🤗 LeRobot library is robust and reliable thanks to the users who notify us of
+the problems they encounter. So thank you for reporting an issue.
+
+First, we would really appreciate it if you could **make sure the bug was not
+already reported** (use the search bar on Github under Issues).
+
+Did not find it? :( So we can act quickly on it, please follow these steps:
+
+- Include your **OS type and version**, the versions of **Python** and **PyTorch**.
+- A short, self-contained, code snippet that allows us to reproduce the bug in
+  less than 30s.
+- The full traceback if an exception is raised.
+- Attach any other additional information, like screenshots, you think may help.
+
+### Do you want a new feature?
+
+A good feature request addresses the following points:
+
+1. Motivation first:
+
+- Is it related to a problem/frustration with the library? If so, please explain
+  why. Providing a code snippet that demonstrates the problem is best.
+- Is it related to something you would need for a project? We'd love to hear
+  about it!
+- Is it something you worked on and think could benefit the community?
+  Awesome! Tell us what problem it solved for you.
+
+2. Write a _paragraph_ describing the feature.
+3. Provide a **code snippet** that demonstrates its future use.
+4. In case this is related to a paper, please attach a link.
+5. Attach any additional information (drawings, screenshots, etc.) you think may help.
+
+If your issue is well written we're already 80% of the way there by the time you
+post it.
+
+## Adding new policies, datasets or environments
+
+Look at our implementations for [datasets](./src/lerobot/datasets/), [policies](./src/lerobot/policies/),
+environments ([aloha](https://github.com/huggingface/gym-aloha),
+[pusht](https://github.com/huggingface/gym-pusht))
+and follow the same api design.
+
+When implementing a new dataset loadable with LeRobotDataset follow these steps:
+
+- Update `available_datasets_per_env` in `lerobot/__init__.py`
+
+When implementing a new environment (e.g. `gym_aloha`), follow these steps:
+
+- Update `available_tasks_per_env` and `available_datasets_per_env` in `lerobot/__init__.py`
+
+When implementing a new policy class (e.g. `DiffusionPolicy`) follow these steps:
+
+- Update `available_policies` and `available_policies_per_env`, in `lerobot/__init__.py`
+- Set the required `name` class attribute.
+- Update variables in `tests/test_available.py` by importing your new Policy class
+
+## Submitting a pull request (PR)
+
+Before writing code, we strongly advise you to search through the existing PRs or
+issues to make sure that nobody is already working on the same thing. If you are
+unsure, it is always a good idea to open an issue to get some feedback.
+
+You will need basic `git` proficiency to be able to contribute to
+🤗 LeRobot. `git` is not the easiest tool to use but it has the greatest
+manual. Type `git --help` in a shell and enjoy. If you prefer books, [Pro
+Git](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2) is a very good reference.
+
+Follow these steps to start contributing:
+
+1. Fork the [repository](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot) by
+   clicking on the 'Fork' button on the repository's page. This creates a copy of the code
+   under your GitHub user account.
+
+2. Clone your fork to your local disk, and add the base repository as a remote. The following command
+   assumes you have your public SSH key uploaded to GitHub. See the following guide for more
+   [information](https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/creating-and-managing-repositories/cloning-a-repository).
+
+   ```bash
+   git clone git@github.com:<your Github handle>/lerobot.git
+   cd lerobot
+   git remote add upstream https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot.git
+   ```
+
+3. Create a new branch to hold your development changes, and do this for every new PR you work on.
+
+   Start by synchronizing your `main` branch with the `upstream/main` branch (more details in the [GitHub Docs](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/syncing-a-fork)):
+
+   ```bash
+   git checkout main
+   git fetch upstream
+   git rebase upstream/main
+   ```
+
+   Once your `main` branch is synchronized, create a new branch from it:
+
+   ```bash
+   git checkout -b a-descriptive-name-for-my-changes
+   ```
+
+   🚨 **Do not** work on the `main` branch.
+
+4. for development, we advise to use a tool like `poetry` or `uv` instead of just `pip` to easily track our dependencies.
+   Follow the instructions to [install poetry](https://python-poetry.org/docs/#installation) (use a version >=2.1.0) or to [install uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/#installation-methods) if you don't have one of them already.
+
+   Set up a development environment with conda:
+
+   ```bash
+   conda create -y -n lerobot-dev python=3.10 && conda activate lerobot-dev
+   ```
+
+   If you're using `uv`, it can manage python versions so you can instead do:
+
+   ```bash
+   uv venv --python 3.10 && source .venv/bin/activate
+   ```
+
+   To develop on 🤗 LeRobot, you will at least need to install the `dev` and `test` extras dependencies along with the core library:
+
+   using `poetry`
+
+   ```bash
+   poetry sync --extras "dev test"
+   ```
+
+   using `uv`
+
+   ```bash
+   uv sync --extra dev --extra test
+   ```
+
+   You can also install the project with all its dependencies (including environments):
+
+   using `poetry`
+
+   ```bash
+   poetry sync --all-extras
+   ```
+
+   using `uv`
+
+   ```bash
+   uv sync --all-extras
+   ```
+
+   > **Note:** If you don't install simulation environments with `--all-extras`, the tests that require them will be skipped when running the pytest suite locally. However, they _will_ be tested in the CI. In general, we advise you to install everything and test locally before pushing.
+
+   Whichever command you chose to install the project (e.g. `poetry sync --all-extras`), you should run it again when pulling code with an updated version of `pyproject.toml` and `poetry.lock` in order to synchronize your virtual environment with the new dependencies.
+
+   The equivalent of `pip install some-package`, would just be:
+
+   using `poetry`
+
+   ```bash
+   poetry add some-package
+   ```
+
+   using `uv`
+
+   ```bash
+   uv add some-package
+   ```
+
+   When making changes to the poetry sections of the `pyproject.toml`, you should run the following command to lock dependencies.
+   using `poetry`
+
+   ```bash
+   poetry lock
+   ```
+
+   using `uv`
+
+   ```bash
+   uv lock
+   ```
+
+5. Develop the features on your branch.
+
+   As you work on the features, you should make sure that the test suite
+   passes. You should run the tests impacted by your changes like this (see
+   below an explanation regarding the environment variable):
+
+   ```bash
+   pytest tests/<TEST_TO_RUN>.py
+   ```
+
+6. Follow our style.
+
+   `lerobot` relies on `ruff` to format its source code
+   consistently. Set up [`pre-commit`](https://pre-commit.com/) to run these checks
+   automatically as Git commit hooks.
+
+   Install `pre-commit` hooks:
+
+   ```bash
+   pre-commit install
+   ```
+
+   You can run these hooks whenever you need on staged files with:
+
+   ```bash
+   pre-commit
+   ```
+
+   Once you're happy with your changes, add changed files using `git add` and
+   make a commit with `git commit` to record your changes locally:
+
+   ```bash
+   git add modified_file.py
+   git commit
+   ```
+
+   Note, if you already committed some changes that have a wrong formatting, you can use:
+
+   ```bash
+   pre-commit run --all-files
+   ```
+
+   Please write [good commit messages](https://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/).
+
+   It is a good idea to sync your copy of the code with the original
+   repository regularly. This way you can quickly account for changes:
+
+   ```bash
+   git fetch upstream
+   git rebase upstream/main
+   ```
+
+   Push the changes to your account using:
+
+   ```bash
+   git push -u origin a-descriptive-name-for-my-changes
+   ```
+
+7. Once you are satisfied (**and the checklist below is happy too**), go to the
+   webpage of your fork on GitHub. Click on 'Pull request' to send your changes
+   to the project maintainers for review.
+
+8. It's ok if maintainers ask you for changes. It happens to core contributors
+   too! So everyone can see the changes in the Pull request, work in your local
+   branch and push the changes to your fork. They will automatically appear in
+   the pull request.
+
+### Checklist
+
+1. The title of your pull request should be a summary of its contribution;
+2. If your pull request addresses an issue, please mention the issue number in
+   the pull request description to make sure they are linked (and people
+   consulting the issue know you are working on it);
+3. To indicate a work in progress please prefix the title with `[WIP]`, or preferably mark
+   the PR as a draft PR. These are useful to avoid duplicated work, and to differentiate
+   it from PRs ready to be merged;
+4. Make sure existing tests pass;
+
+### Tests
+
+An extensive test suite is included to test the library behavior and several examples. Library tests can be found in the [tests folder](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/tree/main/tests).
+
+Install [git lfs](https://git-lfs.com/) to retrieve test artifacts (if you don't have it already).
+
+On Mac:

 ```bash
+brew install git-lfs
 git lfs install
+```
+
+On Ubuntu:
+
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install git-lfs
+git lfs install
+```
+
+Pull artifacts if they're not in [tests/artifacts](tests/artifacts)
+
+```bash
 git lfs pull
 ```

-Run the full suite (this may require extras installed):
+We use `pytest` in order to run the tests. From the root of the
+repository, here's how to run tests with `pytest` for the library:

 ```bash
-pytest -sv ./tests
+python -m pytest -sv ./tests
 ```

-Or run a specific test file during development:
-
-```bash
-pytest -sv tests/test_specific_feature.py
-```
-
-## Submitting Issues & Pull Requests
-
-Use the templates for required fields and examples.
-
- **Issues:** Follow the [ticket template](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug-report.yml).
- **Pull requests:** Rebase on `upstream/main`, use a descriptive branch (don't work on `main`), run `pre-commit` and tests locally, and follow the [PR template](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md).
-
-One member of the LeRobot team will then review your contribution.

+
+## Installation
+
+LeRobot works with Python 3.10+ and PyTorch 2.2+.
+
+### Environment Setup
+
+Create a virtual environment with Python 3.10 and activate it, e.g. with [`miniforge`](https://conda-forge.org/download/):
+
+```bash
+conda create -y -n lerobot python=3.10
+conda activate lerobot
+```
+
+When using `conda`, install `ffmpeg` in your environment:
+
+```bash
+conda install ffmpeg -c conda-forge
+```
+
+> **NOTE:** This usually installs `ffmpeg 7.X` for your platform compiled with the `libsvtav1` encoder. If `libsvtav1` is not supported (check supported encoders with `ffmpeg -encoders`), you can:
+>
+> - _[On any platform]_ Explicitly install `ffmpeg 7.X` using:
+>
+> ```bash
+> conda install ffmpeg=7.1.1 -c conda-forge
+> ```
+>
+> - _[On Linux only]_ Install [ffmpeg build dependencies](https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu#GettheDependencies) and [compile ffmpeg from source with libsvtav1](https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu#libsvtav1), and make sure you use the corresponding ffmpeg binary to your install with `which ffmpeg`.
+
+### Install LeRobot 🤗
+
+#### From Source
+
+First, clone the repository and navigate into the directory:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot.git
+cd lerobot
+```
+
+Then, install the library in editable mode. This is useful if you plan to contribute to the code.
+
+```bash
+pip install -e .
+```
+
+> **NOTE:** If you encounter build errors, you may need to install additional dependencies (`cmake`, `build-essential`, and `ffmpeg libs`). On Linux, run:
+> `sudo apt-get install cmake build-essential python3-dev pkg-config libavformat-dev libavcodec-dev libavdevice-dev libavutil-dev libswscale-dev libswresample-dev libavfilter-dev`. For other systems, see: [Compiling PyAV](https://pyav.org/docs/develop/overview/installation.html#bring-your-own-ffmpeg)

-## Robots & Control
-
-<div align="center">
-  <img src="./media/readme/robots_control_video.webp" width="640px" alt="Reachy 2 Demo">
-</div>
-
-LeRobot provides a unified `Robot` class interface that decouples control logic from hardware specifics. It supports a wide range of robots and teleoperation devices.
-
-```python
-from lerobot.robots.myrobot import MyRobot
-
-# Connect to a robot
-robot = MyRobot(config=...)
-robot.connect()
-
-# Read observation and send action
-obs = robot.get_observation()
-action = model.select_action(obs)
-robot.send_action(action)
-```
-
-**Supported Hardware:** SO100, LeKiwi, Koch, HopeJR, OMX, EarthRover, Reachy2, Gamepads, Keyboards, Phones, OpenARM, Unitree G1.
-
-While these devices are natively integrated into the LeRobot codebase, the library is designed to be extensible. You can easily implement the Robot interface to utilize LeRobot's data collection, training, and visualization tools for your own custom robot.
-
-For detailed hardware setup guides, see the [Hardware Documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/lerobot/integrate_hardware).
-
-## LeRobot Dataset
-
-To solve the data fragmentation problem in robotics, we utilize the **LeRobotDataset** format.
-
- **Structure:** Synchronized MP4 videos (or images) for vision and Parquet files for state/action data.
- **HF Hub Integration:** Explore thousands of robotics datasets on the [Hugging Face Hub](https://huggingface.co/lerobot).
- **Tools:** Seamlessly delete episodes, split by indices/fractions, add/remove features, and merge multiple datasets.
-
-```python
-from lerobot.datasets.lerobot_dataset import LeRobotDataset
-
-# Load a dataset from the Hub
-dataset = LeRobotDataset("lerobot/aloha_mobile_cabinet")
-
-# Access data (automatically handles video decoding)
-episode_index=0
-print(f"{dataset[episode_index]['action'].shape=}\n")
-```
-
-Learn more about it in the [LeRobotDataset Documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/lerobot/lerobot-dataset-v3)
-
-## SoTA Models
-
-LeRobot implements state-of-the-art policies in pure PyTorch, covering Imitation Learning, Reinforcement Learning, and Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, with more coming soon. It also provides you with the tools to instrument and inspect your training process.
-
-<p align="center">
-  <img alt="Gr00t Architecture" src="./media/readme/VLA_architecture.jpg" width="640px">

+_Replace `[...]` with your desired features._

-Similarly to the hardware, you can easily implement your own policy & leverage LeRobot's data collection, training, and visualization tools, and share your model to the HF Hub
+**Available Tags:**
+For a full list of optional dependencies, see:
+https://pypi.org/project/lerobot/

-For detailed policy setup guides, see the [Policy Documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/lerobot/bring_your_own_policies).
+> [!NOTE]
+> For lerobot 0.4.0, if you want to install libero or pi tags, you will have to do: `pip install "lerobot[pi,libero]@git+https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot.git"`.
+>
+> This will be solved in the next patch release

-## Inference & Evaluation
+### Weights & Biases

-Evaluate your policies in simulation or on real hardware using the unified evaluation script. LeRobot supports standard benchmarks like **LIBERO**, **MetaWorld** and more to come.
+To use [Weights and Biases](https://docs.wandb.ai/quickstart) for experiment tracking, log in with

 ```bash
-# Evaluate a policy on the LIBERO benchmark
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=lerobot/pi0_libero_finetuned \
-  --env.type=libero \
-  --env.task=libero_object \
-  --eval.n_episodes=10
+wandb login
 ```

-Learn how to implement your own simulation environment or benchmark and distribute it from the HF Hub by following the [EnvHub Documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/lerobot/envhub)
+(note: you will also need to enable WandB in the configuration. See below.)

+Check out [example 1](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/examples/dataset/load_lerobot_dataset.py) that illustrates how to use our dataset class which automatically downloads data from the Hugging Face hub.
+
+You can also locally visualize episodes from a dataset on the hub by executing our script from the command line:
+
+```bash
+lerobot-dataset-viz \
+    --repo-id lerobot/pusht \
+    --episode-index 0
+```
+
+or from a dataset in a local folder with the `root` option and the `--mode local` (in the following case the dataset will be searched for in `./my_local_data_dir/lerobot/pusht`)
+
+```bash
+lerobot-dataset-viz \
+    --repo-id lerobot/pusht \
+    --root ./my_local_data_dir \
+    --mode local \
+    --episode-index 0
+```
+
+It will open `rerun.io` and display the camera streams, robot states and actions, like this:
+
+https://github-production-user-asset-6210df.s3.amazonaws.com/4681518/328035972-fd46b787-b532-47e2-bb6f-fd536a55a7ed.mov?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAVCODYLSA53PQK4ZA%2F20240505%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20240505T172924Z&X-Amz-Expires=300&X-Amz-Signature=d680b26c532eeaf80740f08af3320d22ad0b8a4e4da1bcc4f33142c15b509eda&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&actor_id=24889239&key_id=0&repo_id=748713144
+
+Our script can also visualize datasets stored on a distant server. See `lerobot-dataset-viz --help` for more instructions.
+
+### The `LeRobotDataset` format
+
+A dataset in `LeRobotDataset` format is very simple to use. It can be loaded from a repository on the Hugging Face hub or a local folder simply with e.g. `dataset = LeRobotDataset("lerobot/aloha_static_coffee")` and can be indexed into like any Hugging Face and PyTorch dataset. For instance `dataset[0]` will retrieve a single temporal frame from the dataset containing observation(s) and an action as PyTorch tensors ready to be fed to a model.
+
+A specificity of `LeRobotDataset` is that, rather than retrieving a single frame by its index, we can retrieve several frames based on their temporal relationship with the indexed frame, by setting `delta_timestamps` to a list of relative times with respect to the indexed frame. For example, with `delta_timestamps = {"observation.image": [-1, -0.5, -0.2, 0]}` one can retrieve, for a given index, 4 frames: 3 "previous" frames 1 second, 0.5 seconds, and 0.2 seconds before the indexed frame, and the indexed frame itself (corresponding to the 0 entry). See example [1_load_lerobot_dataset.py](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/examples/dataset/load_lerobot_dataset.py) for more details on `delta_timestamps`.
+
+Under the hood, the `LeRobotDataset` format makes use of several ways to serialize data which can be useful to understand if you plan to work more closely with this format. We tried to make a flexible yet simple dataset format that would cover most type of features and specificities present in reinforcement learning and robotics, in simulation and in real-world, with a focus on cameras and robot states but easily extended to other types of sensory inputs as long as they can be represented by a tensor.
+
+Here are the important details and internal structure organization of a typical `LeRobotDataset` instantiated with `dataset = LeRobotDataset("lerobot/aloha_static_coffee")`. The exact features will change from dataset to dataset but not the main aspects:
+
+```
+dataset attributes:
+  ├ hf_dataset: a Hugging Face dataset (backed by Arrow/parquet). Typical features example:
+  │  ├ observation.images.cam_high (VideoFrame):
+  │  │   VideoFrame = {'path': path to a mp4 video, 'timestamp' (float32): timestamp in the video}
+  │  ├ observation.state (list of float32): position of an arm joints (for instance)
+  │  ... (more observations)
+  │  ├ action (list of float32): goal position of an arm joints (for instance)
+  │  ├ episode_index (int64): index of the episode for this sample
+  │  ├ frame_index (int64): index of the frame for this sample in the episode ; starts at 0 for each episode
+  │  ├ timestamp (float32): timestamp in the episode
+  │  ├ next.done (bool): indicates the end of an episode ; True for the last frame in each episode
+  │  └ index (int64): general index in the whole dataset

+
+A `LeRobotDataset` is serialised using several widespread file formats for each of its parts, namely:
+
+- hf_dataset stored using Hugging Face datasets library serialization to parquet
+- videos are stored in mp4 format to save space
+- metadata are stored in plain json/jsonl files
+
+Dataset can be uploaded/downloaded from the HuggingFace hub seamlessly. To work on a local dataset, you can specify its location with the `root` argument if it's not in the default `~/.cache/huggingface/lerobot` location.
+
+#### Reproduce state-of-the-art (SOTA)
+
+We provide some pretrained policies on our [hub page](https://huggingface.co/lerobot) that can achieve state-of-the-art performances.
+You can reproduce their training by loading the config from their run. Simply running:
+
+```bash
+lerobot-train --config_path=lerobot/diffusion_pusht
+```
+
+reproduces SOTA results for Diffusion Policy on the PushT task.

+
+### Add a pretrained policy
+
+Once you have trained a policy you may upload it to the Hugging Face hub using a hub id that looks like `${hf_user}/${repo_name}` (e.g. [lerobot/diffusion_pusht](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/diffusion_pusht)).
+
+You first need to find the checkpoint folder located inside your experiment directory (e.g. `outputs/train/2024-05-05/20-21-12_aloha_act_default/checkpoints/002500`). Within that there is a `pretrained_model` directory which should contain:
+
+- `config.json`: A serialized version of the policy configuration (following the policy's dataclass config).
+- `model.safetensors`: A set of `torch.nn.Module` parameters, saved in [Hugging Face Safetensors](https://huggingface.co/docs/safetensors/index) format.
+- `train_config.json`: A consolidated configuration containing all parameters used for training. The policy configuration should match `config.json` exactly. This is useful for anyone who wants to evaluate your policy or for reproducibility.
+
+To upload these to the hub, run the following:
+
+```bash
+huggingface-cli upload ${hf_user}/${repo_name} path/to/pretrained_model
+```
+
+See [lerobot_eval.py](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/src/lerobot/scripts/lerobot_eval.py) for an example of how other people may use your policy.

-# Security Policy
-
-## Project Status & Philosophy
-
-`lerobot` has so far been primarily a research and prototyping tool, which is why deployment security hasn’t been a strong focus until now. As `lerobot` continues to be adopted and deployed in production, we are paying much closer attention to these kinds of issues.
-
-Fortunately, being an open-source project, the community can also help by reporting and fixing vulnerabilities. We appreciate your efforts to responsibly disclose your findings and will make every effort to acknowledge your contributions.
-
-## Reporting a Vulnerability
-
-To report a security issue, please use the GitHub Security Advisory ["Report a Vulnerability"](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/security/advisories/new) tab.
-
-The `lerobot` team will send a response indicating the next steps in handling your report. After the initial reply to your report, the security team will keep you informed of the progress towards a fix and full announcement, and may ask for additional information or guidance.
-
-#### Hugging Face Security Team
-
-Since this project is part of the Hugging Face ecosystem, feel free to submit vulnerability reports directly to: **[security@huggingface.co](mailto:security@huggingface.co)**. Someone from the HF security team will review the report and recommend next steps.
-
-#### Open Source Disclosures
-
-If reporting a vulnerability specific to the open-source codebase (and not the underlying Hub infrastructure), you may also use [Huntr](https://huntr.com), a vulnerability disclosure program for open source software.
-
-## Supported Versions
-
-Currently, we treat `lerobot` as a rolling release. We prioritize security updates for the latest available version (`main` branch).
-
-| Version  | Supported |
-| -------- | --------- |
-| Latest   | ✅        |
-| < Latest | ❌        |
-
-## Secure Usage Guidelines
-
-`lerobot` is tightly coupled to the Hugging Face Hub for sharing data and pretrained policies. When downloading artifacts uploaded by others, you expose yourself to risks. Please read below for recommendations to keep your runtime and robot environment safe.
-
-### Remote Artefacts (Weights & Policies)
-
-Models and policies uploaded to the Hugging Face Hub come in different formats. We heavily recommend uploading and downloading models in the [`safetensors`](https://github.com/huggingface/safetensors) format.
-
-`safetensors` was developed specifically to prevent arbitrary code execution on your system, which is critical when running software on physical hardware/robots.
-
-To avoid loading models from unsafe formats (e.g., `pickle`), you should ensure you are prioritizing `safetensors` files.
-
-### Remote Code
-
-Some models or environments on the Hub may require `trust_remote_code=True` to run custom architecture code.
-
-Please **always** verify the content of the modeling files when using this argument. We recommend setting a specific `revision` (commit hash) when loading remote code to ensure you protect yourself from unverified updates to the repository.

-# Docker
-
-This directory contains Dockerfiles for running LeRobot in containerized environments. Both images are **built nightly from `main`** and published to Docker Hub with the full environment pre-baked — no dependency setup required.
-
-## Pre-built Images
-
-```bash
-# CPU-only image (based on Dockerfile.user)
-docker pull huggingface/lerobot-cpu:latest
-
-# GPU image with CUDA support (based on Dockerfile.internal)
-docker pull huggingface/lerobot-gpu:latest
-```
-
-## Quick Start
-
-The fastest way to start training is to pull the GPU image and run `lerobot-train` directly. This is the same environment used for all of our CI, so it is a well-tested, batteries-included setup.
-
-```bash
-docker run -it --rm --gpus all --shm-size 16gb huggingface/lerobot-gpu:latest
-
-# inside the container:
-lerobot-train --policy.type=act --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human
-```
-
-## Dockerfiles
-
-### `Dockerfile.user` (CPU)
-
-A lightweight image based on `python:3.12-slim`. Includes all Python dependencies and system libraries but does not include CUDA — there is no GPU support. Useful for exploring the codebase, running scripts, or working with robots, but not practical for training.
-
-### `Dockerfile.internal` (GPU)
-
-A CUDA-enabled image based on `nvidia/cuda`. This is the image for training — mostly used for internal interactions with the GPU cluster.
-
-## Usage
-
-### Running a pre-built image
-
-```bash
-# CPU
-docker run -it --rm huggingface/lerobot-cpu:latest
-
-# GPU
-docker run -it --rm --gpus all --shm-size 16gb huggingface/lerobot-gpu:latest
-```
-
-### Building locally
-
-From the repo root:
-
-```bash
-# CPU
-docker build -f docker/Dockerfile.user -t lerobot-user .
-docker run -it --rm lerobot-user
-
-# GPU
-docker build -f docker/Dockerfile.internal -t lerobot-internal .
-docker run -it --rm --gpus all --shm-size 16gb lerobot-internal
-```
-
-### Multi-GPU training
-
-To select specific GPUs, set `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES` when launching the container:
-
-```bash
-# Use 4 GPUs
-docker run -it --rm --gpus all --shm-size 16gb \
-  -e CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3 \
-  huggingface/lerobot-gpu:latest
-```
-
-### USB device access (e.g. robots, cameras)
-
-```bash
-docker run -it --device=/dev/ -v /dev/:/dev/ --rm huggingface/lerobot-cpu:latest
-```

-# Action Representations
-
-This guide explains the different ways robot actions can be represented in LeRobot, how they relate to each other, and when to use each one.
-
-## Joint Space vs End-Effector Space
-
-Before discussing action representations, it helps to understand the two coordinate spaces actions can live in.
-
-### Joint Space
-
-Joint-space actions directly specify target positions for each motor. For a 6-DOF arm with a gripper, a joint-space action might look like:
-
-```
-action = [shoulder_pan: 45.0, shoulder_lift: -20.0, elbow: -30.0, wrist_pitch: 10.0, wrist_roll: 0.0, wrist_yaw: 5.0, gripper: 0.8]
-```
-
-Joint space is the default in LeRobot. It is simple, requires no kinematics model, and maps directly to motor commands. Most beginner setups (SO-100, Koch) use joint-space actions.
-
-### End-Effector (EE) Space
-
-End-effector-space actions specify the desired position and orientation of the robot's tool tip (gripper) in Cartesian coordinates:
-
-```
-action = [x: 0.25, y: -0.10, z: 0.15, wx: 0.0, wy: 0.0, wz: 0.1, gripper: 0.8]
-```
-
-EE space is more intuitive for tasks like pick-and-place because it directly describes where the gripper should go, but it requires a kinematics model (URDF) to convert between EE poses and joint angles.
-
-### Converting Between Spaces
-
-LeRobot provides processor steps for converting between joint and EE spaces using forward and inverse kinematics. These are built on top of `RobotKinematics`, which loads a URDF model of your robot.
-
-```python
-from lerobot.model.kinematics import RobotKinematics
-from lerobot.robots.so_follower.robot_kinematic_processor import (
-    ForwardKinematicsJointsToEE,
-    InverseKinematicsEEToJoints,
-)
-
-kinematics = RobotKinematics(
-    urdf_path="./SO101/so101_new_calib.urdf",
-    target_frame_name="gripper_frame_link",
-    joint_names=["shoulder", "elbow", "wrist_pitch", "wrist_roll", "wrist_yaw"],
-)
-
-# Joints → EE (for observations: "where is my gripper?")
-fk_step = ForwardKinematicsJointsToEE(kinematics=kinematics, motor_names=[...])
-
-# EE → Joints (for actions: "move my gripper here")
-ik_step = InverseKinematicsEEToJoints(kinematics=kinematics, motor_names=[...])
-```
-
-See [`examples/so100_to_so100_EE/`](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/tree/main/examples/so100_to_so100_EE) for a complete working example of recording, replaying, and evaluating with EE-space actions on an SO-100 arm.
-
-## Absolute, Relative, and Delta Actions
-
-Regardless of whether you work in joint space or EE space, the action values can be expressed in three different ways. The terminology follows [UMI (Chi et al., 2024)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.10329).
-
-### Absolute Actions (LeRobot default)
-
-Each action specifies the target position directly.
-
-**Example** (joint space, chunk of 4):
-
-```
-current_state = [45.0, -30.0, 10.0]
-
-action_chunk = [
-    [46.0, -29.0, 11.0],   # go to 46, -29, 11
-    [47.5, -27.0, 12.0],   # go to 47.5, -27, 12
-    [49.0, -25.0, 13.5],   # go to 49, -25, 13.5
-    [50.0, -24.0, 15.0],   # go to 50, -24, 15
-]
-```
-
-Each value is a target position in the robot's coordinate frame. Simple and direct, but requires a consistent global coordinate frame. This is the default in LeRobot.
-
-### Relative Actions (used by OpenPI / pi0)
-
-Each action in the chunk is an offset from the **current state at the moment of prediction**. All actions in the chunk share the same reference point:
-
-```
-current_state = [45.0, -30.0, 10.0]
-
-relative_chunk = [
-    [1.0,  1.0, 1.0],   # +1 from current → target 46, -29, 11
-    [2.5,  3.0, 2.0],   # +2.5 from current → target 47.5, -27, 12
-    [4.0,  5.0, 3.5],   # +4 from current → target 49, -25, 13.5
-    [5.0,  6.0, 5.0],   # +5 from current → target 50, -24, 15
-]
-```
-
-The conversion is straightforward: `relative = absolute - current_state`. To recover absolute: `absolute = relative + current_state`.
-
-**Why use relative actions?** The model learns to predict offsets centered around zero, which is easier to normalize and leads to more stable training. Because every chunk references the same current state, there is no error accumulation across chunks.
-
-### Delta Actions (sequential differences)
-
-Each action is an offset from the **previous action** (or from the current state for the first step):
-
-```
-current_state = [45.0, -30.0, 10.0]
-
-delta_chunk = [
-    [1.0,  1.0, 1.0],   # current → 46, -29, 11
-    [1.5,  2.0, 1.0],   # previous action → 47.5, -27, 12
-    [1.5,  2.0, 1.5],   # previous action → 49, -25, 13.5
-    [1.0,  1.0, 1.5],   # previous action → 50, -24, 15
-]
-```
-
-Here each step is relative to the one before it. To recover absolute positions you must sum all previous deltas, which means errors accumulate over time. UMI explicitly argues against this representation for this reason.
-
-### Visual Comparison
-
-The figure below (based on a figure from [UMI, Chi et al., 2024](https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.10329)) illustrates the key difference. With **relative trajectory**, every action in the chunk points back to the same origin (current state), so a new inference step cleanly resets the reference. With **delta**, each action depends on the previous one, so errors accumulate. **Absolute** actions require a consistent global coordinate frame.

-
-## Using Relative Actions in LeRobot
-
-LeRobot provides `RelativeActionsProcessorStep` to convert between absolute and relative actions inside the processor pipeline. This is how pi0, pi0.5, and pi0_fast support relative actions.
-
-> **Note:** All pi models (pi0, pi0.5, pi0*fast) apply relative conversion \_before* normalization (`relative → normalize`), so the normalizer always sees delta (relative) values. This means **relative action stats are required** for all of them when training with `use_relative_actions=true`. In pi0_fast the `RelativeActionsProcessorStep` only modifies the action — the state observation is unchanged — so `NormalizerProcessorStep` still runs before the state tokenizer and the tokenizer continues to receive normalized state as expected.
-
-### How it works
-
-During **training** (preprocessing), actions are converted from absolute to relative before the model sees them:
-
-```
-raw absolute action → RelativeActionsProcessorStep → normalize → model
-```
-
-During **inference** (postprocessing), model predictions are converted back to absolute before being sent to the robot:
-
-```
-model output → unnormalize → AbsoluteActionsProcessorStep → robot
-```
-
-The `AbsoluteActionsProcessorStep` reads the cached current state from its paired `RelativeActionsProcessorStep`, so the two must be wired together (handled automatically by the policy factory).
-
-### Enabling relative actions for the pi family (pi0, pi0.5, pi0_fast)
-
-**Step 1**: Precompute relative action statistics for your dataset:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-edit-dataset \
-    --repo_id your_dataset \
-    --operation.type recompute_stats \
-    --operation.relative_action true \
-    --operation.chunk_size 50 \
-    --operation.relative_exclude_joints "['gripper']"
-```
-
-**Step 2**: Train with relative actions enabled:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-    --dataset.repo_id=your_dataset \
-    --policy.type=pi0 \
-    --policy.use_relative_actions=true \
-    --policy.relative_exclude_joints='["gripper"]'
-```
-
-The `relative_exclude_joints` parameter specifies joints that should remain in absolute space. For example, gripper commands are typically binary (open/close) and don't benefit from relative encoding.
-
-### Combining relative actions with RTC
-
-[RTC](https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.07339) runs policy inference at high frequency and sends actions to the robot as they are predicted rather than waiting for a full chunk. Relative actions and RTC are fully compatible: because every chunk in relative mode references the **same** current state (captured at the start of inference), each predicted action in the chunk remains a valid offset even if the robot has already moved. No special handling is needed — `RelativeActionsProcessorStep` caches the state once per inference call and `AbsoluteActionsProcessorStep` applies it to every action in the streamed output.
-
-### Combining relative actions with EE space
-
-Relative actions work in both joint space and EE space. For example, if your dataset stores EE actions, relative encoding converts them to offsets from the current EE pose:
-
-```
-current_ee_state = [x: 0.25, y: -0.10, z: 0.15, gripper: 0.8]
-
-absolute_ee_chunk = [
-    [0.26, -0.09, 0.16, 0.8],
-    [0.28, -0.07, 0.18, 0.8],
-]
-
-relative_ee_chunk = [
-    [0.01,  0.01, 0.01, 0.0],   # offset from current EE pose
-    [0.03,  0.03, 0.03, 0.0],   # offset from current EE pose
-]
-```
-
-## Processing Pipeline Summary
-
-Here is how the different processors compose. Each arrow is a processor step, and they can be chained in a `RobotProcessorPipeline` or `PolicyProcessorPipeline`:
-
-```
-                    ┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐

-                    │   InverseKinematicsEEToJoints           │
-                    └─────────────────────────────────────────┘
-
-                    ┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
-   Representation   │   Absolute  ←────→  Relative            │
-                    │   RelativeActionsProcessorStep (pre)    │
-                    │   AbsoluteActionsProcessorStep (post)   │
-                    └─────────────────────────────────────────┘
-
-                    ┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
-   Normalization    │   Raw  ←────→  Normalized               │
-                    │   NormalizerProcessorStep (pre)         │
-                    │   UnnormalizerProcessorStep (post)      │
-                    └─────────────────────────────────────────┘
-```
-
-A typical training preprocessor might chain: `raw absolute joint actions → relative → normalize`. A typical inference postprocessor: `unnormalize → absolute → (optionally IK to joints)`.

-# Adding a New Benchmark
-
-This guide walks you through adding a new simulation benchmark to LeRobot. Follow the steps in order and use the existing benchmarks as templates.
-
-A benchmark in LeRobot is a set of [Gymnasium](https://gymnasium.farama.org/) environments that wrap a third-party simulator (like LIBERO or Meta-World) behind a standard `gym.Env` interface. The `lerobot-eval` CLI then runs evaluation uniformly across all benchmarks.
-
-## Existing benchmarks at a glance
-
-Before diving in, here is what is already integrated:
-
-| Benchmark      | Env file            | Config class       | Tasks               | Action dim   | Processor                    |
-| -------------- | ------------------- | ------------------ | ------------------- | ------------ | ---------------------------- |
-| LIBERO         | `envs/libero.py`    | `LiberoEnv`        | 130 across 5 suites | 7            | `LiberoProcessorStep`        |
-| Meta-World     | `envs/metaworld.py` | `MetaworldEnv`     | 50 (MT50)           | 4            | None                         |
-| IsaacLab Arena | Hub-hosted          | `IsaaclabArenaEnv` | Configurable        | Configurable | `IsaaclabArenaProcessorStep` |
-
-Use `src/lerobot/envs/libero.py` and `src/lerobot/envs/metaworld.py` as reference implementations.
-
-## How it all fits together
-
-### Data flow
-
-During evaluation, data moves through four stages:
-
-```
-1. gym.Env  ──→  raw observations (numpy dicts)
-
-2. Preprocessing  ──→  standard LeRobot keys + task description
-   (preprocess_observation in envs/utils.py, env.call("task_description"))
-
-3. Processors  ──→  env-specific then policy-specific transforms
-   (env_preprocessor, policy_preprocessor)
-
-4. Policy  ──→  select_action()  ──→  action tensor
-   then reverse: policy_postprocessor → env_postprocessor → numpy action → env.step()
-```
-
-Most benchmarks only need to care about stage 1 (producing observations in the right format) and optionally stage 3 (if env-specific transforms are needed).
-
-### Environment structure
-
-`make_env()` returns a nested dict of vectorized environments:
-
-```python
-dict[str, dict[int, gym.vector.VectorEnv]]
-#    ^suite       ^task_id
-```
-
-A single-task env (e.g. PushT) looks like `{"pusht": {0: vec_env}}`.
-A multi-task benchmark (e.g. LIBERO) looks like `{"libero_spatial": {0: vec0, 1: vec1, ...}, ...}`.
-
-### How evaluation runs
-
-All benchmarks are evaluated the same way by `lerobot-eval`:
-
-1. `make_env()` builds the nested `{suite: {task_id: VectorEnv}}` dict.
-2. `eval_policy_all()` iterates over every suite and task.
-3. For each task, it runs `n_episodes` rollouts via `rollout()`.
-4. Results are aggregated hierarchically: episode, task, suite, overall.
-5. Metrics include `pc_success` (success rate), `avg_sum_reward`, and `avg_max_reward`.
-
-The critical piece: your env must return `info["is_success"]` on every `step()` call. This is how the eval loop knows whether a task was completed.
-
-## What your environment must provide
-
-LeRobot does not enforce a strict observation schema. Instead it relies on a set of conventions that all benchmarks follow.
-
-### Env attributes
-
-Your `gym.Env` must set these attributes:
-
-| Attribute            | Type  | Why                                                  |
-| -------------------- | ----- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
-| `_max_episode_steps` | `int` | `rollout()` uses this to cap episode length          |
-| `task_description`   | `str` | Passed to VLA policies as a language instruction     |
-| `task`               | `str` | Fallback identifier if `task_description` is not set |
-
-### Success reporting
-
-Your `step()` and `reset()` must include `"is_success"` in the `info` dict:
-
-```python
-info = {"is_success": True}   # or False
-return observation, reward, terminated, truncated, info
-```
-
-### Observations
-
-The simplest approach is to map your simulator's outputs to the standard keys that `preprocess_observation()` already understands. Do this inside your `gym.Env` (e.g. in a `_format_raw_obs()` helper):
-
-| Your env should output    | LeRobot maps it to         | What it is                            |
-| ------------------------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
-| `"pixels"` (single array) | `observation.image`        | Single camera image, HWC uint8        |
-| `"pixels"` (dict)         | `observation.images.<cam>` | Multiple cameras, each HWC uint8      |
-| `"agent_pos"`             | `observation.state`        | Proprioceptive state vector           |
-| `"environment_state"`     | `observation.env_state`    | Full environment state (e.g. PushT)   |
-| `"robot_state"`           | `observation.robot_state`  | Nested robot state dict (e.g. LIBERO) |
-
-If your simulator uses different key names, you have two options:
-
-1. **Recommended:** Rename them to the standard keys inside your `gym.Env` wrapper.
-2. **Alternative:** Write an env processor to transform observations after `preprocess_observation()` runs (see step 4 below).
-
-### Actions
-
-Actions are continuous numpy arrays in a `gym.spaces.Box`. The dimensionality depends on your benchmark (7 for LIBERO, 4 for Meta-World, etc.). Policies adapt to different action dimensions through their `input_features` / `output_features` config.
-
-### Feature declaration
-
-Each `EnvConfig` subclass declares two dicts that tell the policy what to expect:
-
- `features` — maps feature names to `PolicyFeature(type, shape)` (e.g. action dim, image shape).
- `features_map` — maps raw observation keys to LeRobot convention keys (e.g. `"agent_pos"` to `"observation.state"`).
-
-## Step by step
-
-<Tip>
-  At minimum, you need two files: a **gym.Env wrapper** and an **EnvConfig
-  subclass** with a `create_envs()` override. Everything else is optional or
-  documentation. No changes to `factory.py` are needed.
-</Tip>

-
-### 1. The gym.Env wrapper (`src/lerobot/envs/<benchmark>.py`)
-
-Create a `gym.Env` subclass that wraps the third-party simulator:
-
-```python
-class MyBenchmarkEnv(gym.Env):
-    metadata = {"render_modes": ["rgb_array"], "render_fps": <fps>}
-
-    def __init__(self, task_suite, task_id, ...):
-        super().__init__()
-        self.task = <task_name_string>
-        self.task_description = <natural_language_instruction>
-        self._max_episode_steps = <max_steps>
-        self.observation_space = spaces.Dict({...})
-        self.action_space = spaces.Box(low=..., high=..., shape=(...,), dtype=np.float32)
-
-    def reset(self, seed=None, **kwargs):
-        ...  # return (observation, info) — info must contain {"is_success": False}
-
-    def step(self, action: np.ndarray):
-        ...  # return (obs, reward, terminated, truncated, info) — info must contain {"is_success": <bool>}
-
-    def render(self):
-        ...  # return RGB image as numpy array
-
-    def close(self):
-        ...
-```
-
-**GPU-based simulators (e.g. MuJoCo with EGL rendering):** If your simulator allocates GPU/EGL contexts during `__init__`, defer that allocation to a `_ensure_env()` helper called on first `reset()`/`step()`. This avoids inheriting stale GPU handles when `AsyncVectorEnv` spawns worker processes. See `LiberoEnv._ensure_env()` for the pattern.
-
-Also provide a factory function that returns the nested dict structure:
-
-```python
-def create_mybenchmark_envs(
-    task: str,
-    n_envs: int,
-    gym_kwargs: dict | None = None,
-    env_cls: type | None = None,
-) -> dict[str, dict[int, Any]]:
-    """Create {suite_name: {task_id: VectorEnv}} for MyBenchmark."""
-    ...
-```
-
-See `create_libero_envs()` (multi-suite, multi-task) and `create_metaworld_envs()` (difficulty-grouped tasks) for reference.
-
-### 2. The config (`src/lerobot/envs/configs.py`)
-
-Register a config dataclass so users can select your benchmark with `--env.type=<name>`. Each config owns its environment creation and processor logic via two methods:
-
- **`create_envs(n_envs, use_async_envs)`** — Returns `{suite: {task_id: VectorEnv}}`. The base class default uses `gym.make()` for single-task envs. Multi-task benchmarks override this.
- **`get_env_processors()`** — Returns `(preprocessor, postprocessor)`. The base class default returns identity (no-op) pipelines. Override if your benchmark needs observation/action transforms.
-
-```python
-@EnvConfig.register_subclass("<benchmark_name>")
-@dataclass
-class MyBenchmarkEnvConfig(EnvConfig):
-    task: str = "<default_task>"
-    fps: int = <fps>
-    obs_type: str = "pixels_agent_pos"
-
-    features: dict[str, PolicyFeature] = field(default_factory=lambda: {
-        ACTION: PolicyFeature(type=FeatureType.ACTION, shape=(<action_dim>,)),
-    })
-    features_map: dict[str, str] = field(default_factory=lambda: {
-        ACTION: ACTION,
-        "agent_pos": OBS_STATE,
-        "pixels": OBS_IMAGE,
-    })
-
-    def __post_init__(self):
-        ...  # populate features based on obs_type
-
-    @property
-    def gym_kwargs(self) -> dict:
-        return {"obs_type": self.obs_type, "render_mode": self.render_mode}
-
-    def create_envs(self, n_envs: int, use_async_envs: bool = True):
-        """Override for multi-task benchmarks or custom env creation."""
-        from lerobot.envs.<benchmark> import create_<benchmark>_envs
-        return create_<benchmark>_envs(task=self.task, n_envs=n_envs, ...)
-
-    def get_env_processors(self):
-        """Override if your benchmark needs observation/action transforms."""
-        from lerobot.processor.pipeline import PolicyProcessorPipeline
-        from lerobot.processor.env_processor import MyBenchmarkProcessorStep
-        return (
-            PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[MyBenchmarkProcessorStep()]),
-            PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[]),
-        )
-```
-
-Key points:
-
- The `register_subclass` name is what users pass on the CLI (`--env.type=<name>`).
- `features` tells the policy what the environment produces.
- `features_map` maps raw observation keys to LeRobot convention keys.
- **No changes to `factory.py` needed** — the factory delegates to `cfg.create_envs()` and `cfg.get_env_processors()` automatically.
-
-### 3. Env processor (optional — `src/lerobot/processor/env_processor.py`)
-
-Only needed if your benchmark requires observation transforms beyond what `preprocess_observation()` handles (e.g. image flipping, coordinate conversion). Define the processor step here and return it from `get_env_processors()` in your config (see step 2):
-
-```python
-@dataclass
-@ProcessorStepRegistry.register(name="<benchmark>_processor")
-class MyBenchmarkProcessorStep(ObservationProcessorStep):
-    def _process_observation(self, observation):
-        processed = observation.copy()
-        # your transforms here
-        return processed
-
-    def transform_features(self, features):
-        return features  # update if shapes change
-
-    def observation(self, observation):
-        return self._process_observation(observation)
-```
-
-See `LiberoProcessorStep` for a full example (image rotation, quaternion-to-axis-angle conversion).
-
-### 4. Dependencies (`pyproject.toml`)
-
-Add a new optional-dependency group:
-
-```toml
-mybenchmark = ["my-benchmark-pkg==1.2.3", "lerobot[scipy-dep]"]
-```
-
-Pinning rules:
-
- **Always pin** benchmark packages to exact versions for reproducibility (e.g. `metaworld==3.0.0`).
- **Add platform markers** when needed (e.g. `; sys_platform == 'linux'`).
- **Pin fragile transitive deps** if known (e.g. `gymnasium==1.1.0` for Meta-World).
- **Document constraints** in your benchmark doc page.
-
-Users install with:
-
-```bash
-pip install -e ".[mybenchmark]"
-```
-
-### 5. Documentation (`docs/source/<benchmark>.mdx`)
-
-Write a user-facing page following the template in the next section. See `docs/source/libero.mdx` and `docs/source/metaworld.mdx` for full examples.
-
-### 6. Table of contents (`docs/source/_toctree.yml`)
-
-Add your benchmark to the "Benchmarks" section:
-
-```yaml
- sections:
-    - local: libero
-      title: LIBERO
-    - local: metaworld
-      title: Meta-World
-    - local: envhub_isaaclab_arena
-      title: NVIDIA IsaacLab Arena Environments
-    - local: <your_benchmark>
-      title: <Your Benchmark Name>
-  title: "Benchmarks"
-```
-
-## Verifying your integration
-
-After completing the steps above, confirm that everything works:
-
-1. **Install** — `pip install -e ".[mybenchmark]"` and verify the dependency group installs cleanly.
-2. **Smoke test env creation** — call `make_env()` with your config in Python, check that the returned dict has the expected `{suite: {task_id: VectorEnv}}` shape, and that `reset()` returns observations with the right keys.
-3. **Run a full eval** — `lerobot-eval --env.type=<name> --env.task=<task> --eval.n_episodes=1 --policy.path=<any_compatible_policy>` to exercise the full pipeline end-to-end. (`batch_size` defaults to auto-tuning based on CPU cores; pass `--eval.batch_size=1` to force a single environment.)
-4. **Check success detection** — verify that `info["is_success"]` flips to `True` when the task is actually completed. This is what the eval loop uses to compute success rates.
-
-## Writing a benchmark doc page
-
-Each benchmark `.mdx` page should include:
-
- **Title and description** — 1-2 paragraphs on what the benchmark tests and why it matters.
- **Links** — paper, GitHub repo, project website (if available).
- **Overview image or GIF.**
- **Available tasks** — table of task suites with counts and brief descriptions.
- **Installation** — `pip install -e ".[<benchmark>]"` plus any extra steps (env vars, system packages).
- **Evaluation** — recommended `lerobot-eval` command with `n_episodes` for reproducible results. `batch_size` defaults to auto; only specify it if needed. Include single-task and multi-task examples if applicable.
- **Policy inputs and outputs** — observation keys with shapes, action space description.
- **Recommended evaluation episodes** — how many episodes per task is standard.
- **Training** — example `lerobot-train` command.
- **Reproducing published results** — link to pretrained model, eval command, results table (if available).
-

-# Bring Your Own Policies
-
-This tutorial explains how to integrate your own custom policy implementations into the LeRobot ecosystem, allowing you to leverage all LeRobot tools for training, evaluation, and deployment while using your own algorithms.
-
-## Step 1: Create a Policy Package
-
-Your custom policy should be organized as an installable Python package following LeRobot's plugin conventions.
-
-### Package Structure
-
-Create a package with the prefix `lerobot_policy_` (IMPORTANT!) followed by your policy name:
-
-```bash
-lerobot_policy_my_custom_policy/
-├── pyproject.toml
-└── src/
-    └── lerobot_policy_my_custom_policy/
-        ├── __init__.py
-        ├── configuration_my_custom_policy.py
-        ├── modeling_my_custom_policy.py
-        └── processor_my_custom_policy.py
-```
-
-### Package Configuration
-
-Set up your `pyproject.toml`:
-
-```toml
-[project]
-name = "lerobot_policy_my_custom_policy"
-version = "0.1.0"
-dependencies = [
-    # your policy-specific dependencies
-]
-requires-python = ">= 3.12"
-
-[build-system]
-build-backend = # your-build-backend
-requires = # your-build-system
-```
-
-## Step 2: Define the Policy Configuration
-
-Create a configuration class that inherits from [`PreTrainedConfig`](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/src/lerobot/configs/policies.py) and registers your policy type:
-Here is a template to get you started, customize the parameters and methods as needed for your policy's architecture and training requirements.
-
-```python
-# configuration_my_custom_policy.py
-from dataclasses import dataclass, field
-from lerobot.configs.policies import PreTrainedConfig

-## Step 3: Implement the Policy Class
-
-Create your policy implementation by inheriting from [`PreTrainedPolicy`](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/src/lerobot/policies/pretrained.py):

-## Step 4: Add Data Processors
-
-Create processor functions. For a concrete reference, see [processor_act.py](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/src/lerobot/policies/act/processor_act.py) or [processor_diffusion.py](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/src/lerobot/policies/diffusion/processor_diffusion.py).
-
-```python
-# processor_my_custom_policy.py
-from typing import Any
-import torch
-
-from lerobot.processor import PolicyAction, PolicyProcessorPipeline
-
-
-def make_my_custom_policy_pre_post_processors(
-    config,
-    dataset_stats: dict[str, dict[str, torch.Tensor]] | None = None,
-) -> tuple[
-    PolicyProcessorPipeline[dict[str, Any], dict[str, Any]],
-    PolicyProcessorPipeline[PolicyAction, PolicyAction],
-]:
-    preprocessor = ...   # build your PolicyProcessorPipeline for inputs
-    postprocessor = ...  # build your PolicyProcessorPipeline for outputs
-    return preprocessor, postprocessor
-```
-
-**Important - function naming:** LeRobot discovers your processor by name. The function **must** be called `make_{policy_name}_pre_post_processors` (matching the string you passed to `@PreTrainedConfig.register_subclass`).
-
-## Step 5: Package Initialization
-
-Expose your classes in the package's `__init__.py`:
-
-```python
-# __init__.py
-"""Custom policy package for LeRobot."""
-
-try:
-    import lerobot  # noqa: F401
-except ImportError:
-    raise ImportError(
-        "lerobot is not installed. Please install lerobot to use this policy package."
-    )
-
-from .configuration_my_custom_policy import MyCustomPolicyConfig
-from .modeling_my_custom_policy import MyCustomPolicy
-from .processor_my_custom_policy import make_my_custom_policy_pre_post_processors
-
-__all__ = [
-    "MyCustomPolicyConfig",
-    "MyCustomPolicy",
-    "make_my_custom_policy_pre_post_processors",
-]
-```
-
-## Step 6: Installation and Usage
-
-### Install Your Policy Package
-
-```bash
-cd lerobot_policy_my_custom_policy
-pip install -e .
-
-# Or install from PyPI if published
-pip install lerobot_policy_my_custom_policy
-```
-
-### Use Your Policy
-
-Once installed, your policy automatically integrates with LeRobot's training and evaluation tools:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-    --policy.type my_custom_policy \
-    --env.type pusht \
-    --steps 200000
-```

 # Cameras

-LeRobot offers multiple options for video capture:
+LeRobot offers multiple options for video capture, including phone cameras, built-in laptop cameras, external webcams, and Intel RealSense cameras. To efficiently record frames from most cameras, you can use either the `OpenCVCamera` or `RealSenseCamera` class. For additional compatibility details on the `OpenCVCamera` class, refer to the [Video I/O with OpenCV Overview](https://docs.opencv.org/4.x/d0/da7/videoio_overview.html).

+### Finding your camera

-> [!TIP]
-> For `OpenCVCamera` compatibility details, see the [Video I/O with OpenCV Overview](https://docs.opencv.org/4.x/d0/da7/videoio_overview.html).
+To instantiate a camera, you need a camera identifier. This identifier might change if you reboot your computer or re-plug your camera, a behavior mostly dependant on your operating system.

-### Find your camera
-
-Every camera requires a unique identifier to be instantiated, allowing you to distinguish between multiple connected devices.

-## Use cameras
+Below are two examples, demonstrating how to work with the API.

-### Frame access modes
-
-All camera classes implement three access modes for capturing frames:
-
-| Method                    | Behavior                                                                                                                                                   | Blocks?        | Best For                                 |

-| `async_read(timeout_ms)`  | Returns the latest unconsumed frame from background thread. Blocks only if buffer is empty, up to `timeout_ms`. Raises `TimeoutError` if no frame arrives. | With a timeout | Control loops synchronized to camera FPS |
-| `read_latest(max_age_ms)` | Peeks at the most recent frame in buffer (may be stale). Raises `TimeoutError` if frame is older than `max_age_ms`.                                        | No             | UI visualization, logging, monitoring    |
-
-### Usage examples
-
-The following examples show how to use the camera API to configure and capture frames from different camera types.
-
- **Blocking and non-blocking frame capture** using an OpenCV-based camera
+- **Asynchronous frame capture** using an OpenCV-based camera
 - **Color and depth capture** using an Intel RealSense camera

-> [!WARNING]
-> Failing to cleanly disconnect cameras can cause resource leaks. Use the context manager protocol to ensure automatic cleanup:
->
-> ```python
-> with OpenCVCamera(config) as camera:
->     ...
-> ```
->
-> You can also call `connect()` and `disconnect()` manually, but always use a `finally` block for the latter.

-# Damiao Motors and CAN Bus
-
-This guide covers setup and usage of Damiao motors with LeRobot via CAN bus communication.
-
-Currently, only Linux is supported, as the OpenArms CAN adapter only has drivers for Linux.
-
-## Linux CAN Setup
-
-Before using Damiao motors, you need to set up the CAN interface on your Linux system.
-
-### Install CAN Utilities
-
-```bash
-sudo apt-get install can-utils
-```
-
-### Configure CAN Interface (Manual)
-
-For standard CAN FD (recommended for OpenArms):
-
-```bash
-sudo ip link set can0 down
-sudo ip link set can0 type can bitrate 1000000 dbitrate 5000000 fd on
-sudo ip link set can0 up
-```
-
-For standard CAN (without FD):
-
-```bash
-sudo ip link set can0 down
-sudo ip link set can0 type can bitrate 1000000
-sudo ip link set can0 up
-```
-
-### Configure CAN Interface (Using LeRobot)
-
-LeRobot provides a utility script to setup and test CAN interfaces:
-
-```bash
-# Setup multiple interfaces (e.g., OpenArms Followers with 2 CAN buses)
-lerobot-setup-can --mode=setup --interfaces=can0,can1
-```
-
-## Debugging CAN Communication
-
-Use the built-in debug tools to test motor communication:
-
-```bash
-# Test motors on all interfaces
-lerobot-setup-can --mode=test --interfaces=can0,can1
-
-# Run speed/latency test
-lerobot-setup-can --mode=speed --interfaces=can0
-```
-
-The test mode will scan for motors (IDs 0x01-0x08) and report which ones respond. Example output:
-
-```
-can0: UP (CAN FD)
-  Motor 0x01 (joint_1): ✓ FOUND
-    → Response 0x11 [FD]: 00112233...
-  Motor 0x02 (joint_2): ✓ FOUND
-  Motor 0x03 (joint_3): ✗ No response
-  ...
-  Summary: 2/8 motors found
-```
-
-## Usage
-
-### Basic Setup
-
-```python
-from lerobot.motors import Motor
-from lerobot.motors.damiao import DamiaoMotorsBus
-
-# Define your motors with send/receive CAN IDs
-motors = {
-    "joint_1": Motor(id=0x01, motor_type_str="dm8009", recv_id=0x11),
-    "joint_2": Motor(id=0x02, motor_type_str="dm4340", recv_id=0x12),
-    "joint_3": Motor(id=0x03, motor_type_str="dm4310", recv_id=0x13),
-}
-
-# Create the bus
-bus = DamiaoMotorsBus(
-    port="can0",  # Linux socketcan interface
-    motors=motors,
-)
-
-# Connect
-bus.connect()
-```
-
-### Reading Motor States
-
-```python
-# Read single motor position (degrees)
-position = bus.read("Present_Position", "joint_1")
-
-# Read from multiple motors
-positions = bus.sync_read("Present_Position")  # All motors
-positions = bus.sync_read("Present_Position", ["joint_1", "joint_2"])
-
-# Read all states at once (position, velocity, torque)
-states = bus.sync_read_all_states()
-# Returns: {'joint_1': {'position': 45.2, 'velocity': 1.3, 'torque': 0.5}, ...}
-```
-
-### Writing Motor Commands
-
-```python
-# Enable torque
-bus.enable_torque()
-
-# Set goal position (degrees)
-bus.write("Goal_Position", "joint_1", 45.0)
-
-# Set positions for multiple motors
-bus.sync_write("Goal_Position", {
-    "joint_1": 45.0,
-    "joint_2": -30.0,
-    "joint_3": 90.0,
-})
-
-# Disable torque
-bus.disable_torque()
-```
-
-## Configuration Options
-
-| Parameter      | Default   | Description                                                 |
-| -------------- | --------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `port`         | -         | CAN interface (`can0`) or serial port (`/dev/cu.usbmodem*`) |
-| `use_can_fd`   | `True`    | Enable CAN FD for higher data rates                         |
-| `bitrate`      | `1000000` | Nominal bitrate (1 Mbps)                                    |
-| `data_bitrate` | `5000000` | CAN FD data bitrate (5 Mbps)                                |
-
-## Motor Configuration
-
-Each motor requires:
-
- `id`: CAN ID for sending commands
- `motor_type`: One of the supported motor types (e.g., `"dm8009"`, `"dm4340"`)
- `recv_id`: CAN ID for receiving responses
-
-OpenArms default IDs follow the pattern: send ID `0x0N`, receive ID `0x1N` where N is the joint number.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### No Response from Motors
-
-1. **Check power**
-2. **Verify CAN wiring**: Check CAN-H, CAN-L, and GND connections
-3. **Check motor IDs**: Use Damiao Debugging Tools to verify/configure IDs
-4. **Test CAN interface**: Run `candump can0` to see if messages are being received
-5. **Run diagnostics**: `lerobot-setup-can --mode=test --interfaces=can0`
-
-### Motor Timeout Parameter
-
-If motors were configured with timeout=0, they won't respond to commands. Use Damiao Debugging Tools to set a non-zero timeout value.
-
-### Verify CAN FD Status
-
-```bash
-ip -d link show can0 | grep fd

-# Using Subtasks in LeRobot Datasets
-
-Subtask support in robotics datasets has proven effective in improving robot reasoning and understanding. Subtasks are particularly useful for:
-
- **Hierarchical policies**: Building policies that include subtask predictions to visualize robot reasoning in real time
- **Reward modeling**: Helping reward models understand task progression (e.g., SARM-style stage-aware reward models)
- **Task decomposition**: Breaking down complex manipulation tasks into atomic, interpretable steps
-
-LeRobotDataset now supports subtasks as part of its dataset structure, alongside tasks.
-
-## What are Subtasks?
-
-While a **task** describes the overall goal (e.g., "Pick up the apple and place it in the basket"), **subtasks** break down the execution into finer-grained steps:
-
-1. "Approach the apple"
-2. "Grasp the apple"
-3. "Lift the apple"
-4. "Move to basket"
-5. "Release the apple"
-
-Each frame in the dataset can be annotated with its corresponding subtask, enabling models to learn and predict these intermediate stages.

-
-**Reference:** _Subtask-learning based for robot self-assembly in flexible collaborative assembly in manufacturing_, Original Article, Published: 19 April 2022.
-
-## Dataset Structure
-
-Subtask information is stored in the dataset metadata:
-
-```
-my-dataset/
-├── data/
-│   └── ...
-├── meta/
-│   ├── info.json
-│   ├── stats.json
-│   ├── tasks.parquet
-│   ├── subtasks.parquet      # Subtask index → subtask string mapping
-│   └── episodes/
-│       └── ...
-└── videos/
-    └── ...
-```
-
-### Subtasks Parquet File
-
-The `meta/subtasks.parquet` file maps subtask indices to their natural language descriptions:
-
-| subtask_index | subtask (index column) |
-| ------------- | ---------------------- |
-| 0             | "Approach the apple"   |
-| 1             | "Grasp the apple"      |
-| 2             | "Lift the apple"       |
-| ...           | ...                    |
-
-### Frame-Level Annotations
-
-Each frame in the dataset can include a `subtask_index` field that references the subtasks parquet file:
-
-```python
-# Example frame data in the parquet file
-{
-    "index": 42,
-    "timestamp": 1.4,
-    "episode_index": 0,
-    "task_index": 0,
-    "subtask_index": 2,  # References "Lift the apple"
-    "observation.state": [...],
-    "action": [...],
-}
-```
-
-## Annotating Datasets with Subtasks
-
-We provide a HuggingFace Space for easily annotating any LeRobotDataset with subtasks:
-
-**[https://huggingface.co/spaces/lerobot/annotate](https://huggingface.co/spaces/lerobot/annotate)**
-
-After completing your annotation:
-
-1. Click "Push to Hub" to upload your annotated dataset
-2. You can also run the annotation space locally by following the instructions at [github.com/huggingface/lerobot-annotate](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot-annotate)
-
-## Loading Datasets with Subtasks
-
-When you load a dataset with subtask annotations, the subtask information is automatically available:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.datasets.lerobot_dataset import LeRobotDataset
-
-# Load a dataset with subtask annotations
-dataset = LeRobotDataset("jadechoghari/collect-fruit-annotated")
-
-# Access a sample
-sample = dataset[100]
-
-# The sample includes both task and subtask information
-print(sample["task"])        # "Collect the fruit"
-print(sample["subtask"])     # "Grasp the apple"
-print(sample["task_index"])  # tensor(0)
-print(sample["subtask_index"])  # tensor(2)
-```
-
-### Checking for Subtask Support
-
-You can check if a dataset has subtask annotations:
-
-```python
-# Check if subtasks are available
-has_subtasks = (
-    "subtask_index" in dataset.features
-    and dataset.meta.subtasks is not None
-)
-
-if has_subtasks:
-    print(f"Dataset has {len(dataset.meta.subtasks)} unique subtasks")
-    print("Subtasks:", list(dataset.meta.subtasks.index))
-```
-
-## Using Subtasks for Training
-
-### With the Tokenizer Processor
-
-The `TokenizerProcessor` automatically handles subtask tokenization for Vision-Language Action (VLA) models:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.processor.tokenizer_processor import TokenizerProcessor
-from lerobot.processor.pipeline import ProcessorPipeline
-
-# Create a tokenizer processor
-tokenizer_processor = TokenizerProcessor(
-    tokenizer_name_or_path="google/paligemma-3b-pt-224",
-    padding="max_length",
-    max_length=64,
-)
-
-# The processor will automatically tokenize subtasks if present in the batch
-# and add them to the observation under:
-# - "observation.subtask.tokens"
-# - "observation.subtask.attention_mask"
-```
-
-When subtasks are available in the batch, the tokenizer processor adds:
-
- `observation.subtask.tokens`: Tokenized subtask text
- `observation.subtask.attention_mask`: Attention mask for the subtask tokens
-
-### DataLoader with Subtasks
-
-```python
-import torch
-from lerobot.datasets.lerobot_dataset import LeRobotDataset
-
-dataset = LeRobotDataset("jadechoghari/collect-fruit-annotated")
-
-dataloader = torch.utils.data.DataLoader(
-    dataset,
-    batch_size=16,
-    shuffle=True,
-)
-
-for batch in dataloader:
-    # Access subtask information in the batch
-    subtasks = batch["subtask"]  # List of subtask strings
-    subtask_indices = batch["subtask_index"]  # Tensor of subtask indices
-
-    # Use for training hierarchical policies or reward models
-    print(f"Batch subtasks: {set(subtasks)}")
-```
-
-## Example Datasets with Subtask Annotations
-
-Try loading a dataset with subtask annotations:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.datasets.lerobot_dataset import LeRobotDataset
-
-# Example dataset with subtask annotations
-dataset = LeRobotDataset("jadechoghari/collect-fruit-annotated")
-
-# Explore the subtasks
-print("Available subtasks:")
-for subtask_name in dataset.meta.subtasks.index:
-    print(f"  - {subtask_name}")
-
-# Get subtask distribution
-subtask_counts = {}
-for i in range(len(dataset)):
-    sample = dataset[i]
-    subtask = sample["subtask"]
-    subtask_counts[subtask] = subtask_counts.get(subtask, 0) + 1
-
-print("\nSubtask distribution:")
-for subtask, count in sorted(subtask_counts.items(), key=lambda x: -x[1]):
-    print(f"  {subtask}: {count} frames")
-```
-
-## Use Cases
-
-### 1. Hierarchical Policy Training
-
-Train policies that predict both actions and current subtask:
-
-```python
-class HierarchicalPolicy(nn.Module):
-    def __init__(self, num_subtasks):
-        super().__init__()
-        self.action_head = nn.Linear(hidden_dim, action_dim)
-        self.subtask_head = nn.Linear(hidden_dim, num_subtasks)
-
-    def forward(self, observations):
-        features = self.encoder(observations)
-        actions = self.action_head(features)
-        subtask_logits = self.subtask_head(features)
-        return actions, subtask_logits
-```
-
-### 2. Stage-Aware Reward Modeling (SARM)
-
-Build reward models that understand task progression:
-
-```python
-# SARM predicts:
-# - Stage: Which subtask is being executed (discrete)
-# - Progress: How far along the subtask (continuous 0-1)
-
-class SARMRewardModel(nn.Module):
-    def forward(self, observations):
-        features = self.encoder(observations)
-        stage_logits = self.stage_classifier(features)
-        progress = self.progress_regressor(features)
-        return stage_logits, progress
-```
-
-### 3. Progress Visualization
-
-Monitor robot execution by tracking subtask progression:
-
-```python
-def visualize_execution(model, observations):
-    for t, obs in enumerate(observations):
-        action, subtask_logits = model(obs)
-        predicted_subtask = subtask_names[subtask_logits.argmax()]
-        print(f"t={t}: Executing '{predicted_subtask}'")
-```

-
-The EarthRover Mini Plus is a fully open source mobile robot that connects through the cloud using the Frodobots SDK. This lets you control the robot and record datasets for training AI models.
-
-## What You Need
-
-### Hardware
-
- EarthRover Mini robot
- Computer with Python 3.12 or newer
- Internet connection
-
-### Setting Up the Frodobots SDK
-
-The robot needs the [Frodobots SDK](https://github.com/frodobots-org/earth-rovers-sdk) running on your computer. Here's how:
-
-1. Download and install the SDK:
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/frodobots-org/earth-rovers-sdk.git
-cd earth-rovers-sdk
-pip install -r requirements.txt
-```
-
-2. Save Credentials:
-
-Write your .env variables with the SDK API key and bot name provided by the Frodobots team.
-
-```bash
-SDK_API_TOKEN=your_sdk_api_token_here
-BOT_SLUG=your_bot_slug_here
-CHROME_EXECUTABLE_PATH=/path/to/chrome_or_chromium
-# Default value is MAP_ZOOM_LEVEL=18 https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Zoom_levels
-MAP_ZOOM_LEVEL=18
-MISSION_SLUG=your_mission_slug_here
-# Image quality between 0.1 and 1.0 (default: 0.8)
-# Recommended: 0.8 for better performance
-IMAGE_QUALITY=0.8
-# Image format: jpeg, png or webp (default: png)
-# Recommended: jpeg for better performance and lower bandwidth usage
-IMAGE_FORMAT=jpeg
-```
-
-3. Start the SDK:
-
-```bash
-hypercorn main:app --reload
-```
-
-4. Open your web browser and go to `http://localhost:8000`, then click "Join"
-
-The SDK gives you:
-
- Live video from front and rear cameras
-
-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> The SDK must be running before you can use the robot.
-
-## Install LeRobot
-
-Follow our [Installation Guide](./installation) to install LeRobot.
-
-In addition to the base installation, install the EarthRover Mini dependencies:
-
-```bash
-pip install -e .
-```
-
-## How It Works
-
-The robot uses the internet to communicate:
-
- **Movement commands**: Sent through the SDK
- **Camera video**: Received from the SDK
- **Robot info**: Battery, location, speed from the SDK
-
-You don't need to plug anything in - it all works through the SDK.
-
-## Calibration
-
-No calibration needed! The robot is ready to use as soon as the SDK is running.
-
-## Controlling the Robot
-
-You control the robot using your keyboard - just like playing a video game with WASD keys.
-
-### Keyboard Controls
-
-| Key | Action                           |
-| --- | -------------------------------- |
-| W   | Move forward                     |
-| S   | Move backward                    |
-| A   | Turn left (with forward motion)  |
-| D   | Turn right (with forward motion) |
-| Q   | Rotate left in place             |
-| E   | Rotate right in place            |
-| X   | Stop all movement                |
-| +/= | Increase speed                   |
-| -   | Decrease speed                   |
-| ESC | Disconnect                       |
-
-### Speed Settings
-
-You can adjust how fast the robot moves:
-
- **Forward/backward speed**: Default is full speed (1.0)
- **Turning speed**: Default is full speed (1.0)
- **Speed changes**: Use +/- keys to adjust by 0.1 each time
-
-### Try It Out
-
-Test driving the robot before recording data:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.robots.earthrover_mini_plus import EarthRoverMiniPlus, EarthRoverMiniPlusConfig
-from lerobot.teleoperators.keyboard import KeyboardRoverTeleop, KeyboardRoverTeleopConfig
-
-# Initialize robot
-robot_config = EarthRoverMiniPlusConfig()
-robot = EarthRoverMiniPlus(robot_config)
-
-# Initialize teleoperator
-teleop_config = KeyboardRoverTeleopConfig(
-    linear_speed=1.0,
-    angular_speed=1.0,
-    speed_increment=0.1
-)
-teleop = KeyboardRoverTeleop(teleop_config)
-
-# Connect
-robot.connect()
-teleop.connect()
-
-# Teleoperate (use keyboard controls)
-try:
-    while True:
-        action = teleop.get_action()
-        robot.send_action(action)
-except KeyboardInterrupt:
-    pass
-finally:
-    robot.disconnect()
-    teleop.disconnect()
-```
-
-> [!TIP]
-> If you're using a Mac, you might need to give Terminal permission to access your keyboard for teleoperation. Go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Input Monitoring and check the box for Terminal.
-
-## Recording Data
-
-Once you can drive the robot well, you can start recording data to train AI models. The system records:
-
- **What you do**: How you move the robot (forward, backward, turning)
- **What the robot sees**:
-  - Videos from both cameras
-  - Robot speed and direction
-  - Battery level and location
-  - GPS position and signal
-  - Other sensor data
- **When it happened**: Timestamps for everything
-
-### Setting Up Hugging Face

-# Environment Processors
-
-Environment processors are a critical layer in LeRobot's data processing architecture that handle **environment-specific** transformations, separate from policy-specific processing. This separation of concerns enables cleaner code, better modularity, and easier experimentation with different environments and policies.
-
-## Why Environment Processors?
-
-When working with different robot environments (LIBERO, MetaWorld, Aloha, etc.), each environment often has unique data formats, coordinate systems, and conventions that need standardization **before** policy processing. Without environment processors, these transformations would be:
-
-1. **Hardcoded in environment code** - Making it difficult to experiment with different state representations
-2. **Duplicated across policies** - Each policy would need to handle environment-specific quirks
-3. **Mixed with policy logic** - Violating separation of concerns and making debugging harder
-
-Environment processors solve this by providing a **dedicated processing layer** between raw environment observations and policy inputs.
-
-## The Processing Pipeline
-
-Here's how data flows through the complete processing pipeline during evaluation:
-
-```python
-# In lerobot_eval.py rollout() function:
-
-# 1. Raw environment observation (numpy arrays, various formats)
-raw_observation = env.step(action)
-
-# 2. Convert numpy to torch, normalize images [0,1]
-observation = preprocess_observation(raw_observation)
-
-# 3. Add task metadata (for multi-task environments)
-observation = add_envs_task(env, observation)
-
-# 4. ENVIRONMENT-SPECIFIC preprocessing (NEW!)
-#    - Flatten robot states
-#    - Rotate images to match dataset conventions
-#    - Handle environment-specific coordinate systems
-observation = env_preprocessor(observation)
-
-# 5. POLICY-SPECIFIC preprocessing
-#    - Normalize with dataset statistics
-#    - Add batch dimensions
-#    - Move to GPU
-#    - Tokenize language instructions
-observation = preprocessor(observation)
-
-# 6. Policy inference
-action = policy.select_action(observation)
-
-# 7. POLICY-SPECIFIC postprocessing
-#    - Unnormalize actions
-#    - Remove batch dimensions
-action = postprocessor(action)
-
-# 8. ENVIRONMENT-SPECIFIC postprocessing (NEW!)
-#    - Convert action formats if needed
-#    - Apply environment-specific constraints
-action_transition = {"action": action}
-action_transition = env_postprocessor(action_transition)
-action = action_transition["action"]
-
-# 9. Execute in environment
-env.step(action)
-```
-
-## The Benefits
-
-### 1. **Separation of Concerns**
-
-Environment processors handle transformations specific to the **environment's data format**, while policy processors handle transformations specific to the **model's requirements**.
-
-```python
-# ❌ Before: Mixed concerns
-class LiberoVLAPolicy:
-    def preprocess(self, obs):
-        # Environment-specific: Flatten robot state (shouldn't be in policy!)
-        state = self._flatten_robot_state(obs["robot_state"])
-        # Policy-specific: Normalize with dataset stats
-        state = self.normalizer(state)
-        return state
-
-# ✅ After: Clear separation
-# Environment processor: Handles LIBERO's nested robot state
-env_preprocessor = LiberoProcessorStep()  # Flattens robot_state
-
-# Policy processor: Handles model requirements
-policy_preprocessor = NormalizerProcessorStep(stats=dataset_stats)
-```
-
-### 2. **Flexibility and Reusability**
-
-The same policy can work with different environment processors, and the same environment processor can work with different policies:
-
-````python
-# Use SmolVLA policy with LIBERO environment
-# Use SmolVLA policy with LIBERO environment
-libero_preprocessor, libero_postprocessor = make_env_pre_post_processors(
-    env_cfg=libero_cfg,
-    policy_cfg=smolvla_cfg,
-)
-smolvla_preprocessor, smolvla_postprocessor = make_pre_post_processors(smolvla_cfg)
-# Or use ACT policy with the same LIBERO environment
-libero_preprocessor, libero_postprocessor = make_env_pre_post_processors(
-    env_cfg=libero_cfg,
-    policy_cfg=act_cfg,
-)
-act_preprocessor, act_postprocessor = make_pre_post_processors(act_cfg)
-```python
-# Use SmolVLA policy with LIBERO environment
-libero_preprocessor, libero_postprocessor = make_env_pre_post_processors(
-    env_cfg=libero_cfg,
-    policy_cfg=smolvla_cfg,
-)
-smolvla_preprocessor, smolvla_postprocessor = make_pre_post_processors(smolvla_cfg)
-
-# Or use ACT policy with the same LIBERO environment
-libero_preprocessor, libero_postprocessor = make_env_pre_post_processors(
-    env_cfg=libero_cfg,
-    policy_cfg=act_cfg,
-)
-act_preprocessor, act_postprocessor = make_pre_post_processors(act_cfg)
-
-### 3. **Easier Experimentation**
-
-Want to try different state representations for LIBERO? Just create a new processor:
-
-```python
-# Original: 8D state (pos + quat→axisangle + gripper)
-@ProcessorStepRegistry.register("libero_processor")
-class LiberoProcessorStep(ObservationProcessorStep):
-    def _process_observation(self, obs):
-        eef_pos = robot_state["eef"]["pos"]          # 3D
-        eef_axisangle = quat2axisangle(quat)         # 3D
-        gripper = robot_state["gripper"]["qpos"]     # 2D
-        state = torch.cat([eef_pos, eef_axisangle, gripper], dim=-1)  # 8D
-        return state
-
-# Experiment: Add velocity for better control
-@ProcessorStepRegistry.register("libero_velocity_processor")
-class LiberoVelocityProcessorStep(ObservationProcessorStep):
-    def _process_observation(self, obs):
-        # Include velocities for 14D state
-        eef_pos = robot_state["eef"]["pos"]          # 3D
-        eef_axisangle = quat2axisangle(quat)         # 3D
-        eef_vel = robot_state["eef"]["vel"]          # 3D  (NEW)
-        gripper_pos = robot_state["gripper"]["qpos"] # 2D
-        gripper_vel = robot_state["gripper"]["qvel"] # 3D  (NEW)
-        state = torch.cat([eef_pos, eef_axisangle, eef_vel,
-                          gripper_pos, gripper_vel], dim=-1)  # 14D
-        return state
-````
-
-### 4. **Cleaner Environment Code**
-
-Environments expose **all available data** without needing to know what downstream models will use:
-
-```python
-# LIBERO environment exposes full robot state
-observation = {
-    "pixels": {"image": img, "image2": img2},
-    "robot_state": {
-        "eef": {"pos": ..., "quat": ..., "vel": ..., "mat": ..., "axisangle": ...},
-        "gripper": {"qpos": ..., "qvel": ...},
-        "joints": {"pos": ..., "vel": ...}
-    }
-}
-
-# Environment processor decides what to use
-# Policy processor handles model-specific transformations
-```
-
-## Using Environment Processors
-
-### Factory Function
-
-The `make_env_pre_post_processors` function follows the same pattern as `make_pre_post_processors` for policies:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.envs.factory import make_env_pre_post_processors
-from lerobot.envs.configs import LiberoEnv, PushtEnv
-
-# For LIBERO: Returns LiberoProcessorStep in preprocessor
-libero_cfg = LiberoEnv(task="libero_spatial", camera_name=["agentview"])
-env_preprocessor, env_postprocessor = make_env_pre_post_processors(libero_cfg)
-
-# For other environments: Returns identity processors (no-op)
-pusht_cfg = PushtEnv()
-env_preprocessor, env_postprocessor = make_env_pre_post_processors(pusht_cfg)
-```
-
-### Implementation in `envs/factory.py`
-
-```python
-def make_env_pre_post_processors(
-    env_cfg: EnvConfig,
-) -> tuple[
-    PolicyProcessorPipeline[dict[str, Any], dict[str, Any]],
-    PolicyProcessorPipeline[dict[str, Any], dict[str, Any]],
-]:
-    """
-    Create preprocessor and postprocessor pipelines for environment observations.
-
-    Args:
-        env_cfg: The configuration of the environment.
-
-    Returns:
-        A tuple containing:
-            - preprocessor: Pipeline that processes environment observations
-            - postprocessor: Pipeline that processes environment outputs
-    """
-    # For LIBERO environments, add the LiberoProcessorStep to preprocessor
-    if isinstance(env_cfg, LiberoEnv) or "libero" in env_cfg.type:
-        preprocessor = PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[LiberoProcessorStep()])
-    else:
-        # For all other environments, return an identity preprocessor
-        preprocessor = PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[])
-
-    # Postprocessor is currently identity for all environments
-    # Future: Could add environment-specific action transformations
-    postprocessor = PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[])
-
-    return preprocessor, postprocessor
-```
-
-### Integration in Evaluation
-
-In `lerobot_eval.py`, the environment processors are created once and used throughout:
-
-```python
-def eval_main(cfg: EvalPipelineConfig):
-    # Create environment
-    envs = make_env(cfg.env, n_envs=cfg.eval.batch_size)
-
-    # Create policy
-    policy = make_policy(cfg=cfg.policy, env_cfg=cfg.env)
-
-    # Create policy processors
-    preprocessor, postprocessor = make_pre_post_processors(
-        policy_cfg=cfg.policy,
-        pretrained_path=cfg.policy.pretrained_path,
-    )
-
-    # Create environment processors (NEW!)
-    env_preprocessor, env_postprocessor = make_env_pre_post_processors(env_cfg=cfg.env)
-
-    # Run evaluation with both processor types
-    eval_policy_all(
-        envs=envs,
-        policy=policy,
-        env_preprocessor=env_preprocessor,      # Environment-specific
-        env_postprocessor=env_postprocessor,    # Environment-specific
-        preprocessor=preprocessor,              # Policy-specific
-        postprocessor=postprocessor,            # Policy-specific
-        n_episodes=cfg.eval.n_episodes,
-    )
-```
-
-## Example: LIBERO Environment Processor
-
-The `LiberoProcessorStep` demonstrates a real-world environment processor:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.processor.pipeline import ObservationProcessorStep
-
-@dataclass
-@ProcessorStepRegistry.register(name="libero_processor")
-class LiberoProcessorStep(ObservationProcessorStep):
-    """

-
-### Why These Transformations?
-
-1. **Image Rotation**: The HuggingFaceVLA/libero dataset has images rotated 180° from the raw LIBERO simulator. The processor handles this convention mismatch so policies trained on the dataset work seamlessly.
-
-2. **State Flattening**: The raw LIBERO environment exposes nested dictionaries with all available state information (position, quaternion, velocity, matrix representation, etc.). The processor:
-   - Selects the relevant components (pos, quat, gripper)
-   - Converts quaternion to axis-angle (more suitable for learning)
-   - Flattens to a single 8D vector that policies expect
-
-3. **Flexibility**: The environment still exposes **all** raw data. If you want to try different state representations (e.g., including velocities, using matrix representation instead of axis-angle), you can create a new processor without modifying the environment code.
-
-## Adding Environment Processors for New Environments
-
-To add environment processors for a new environment:
-
-### 1. Create the Processor Step
-
-```python
-# In src/lerobot/processor/env_processor.py
-
-@dataclass
-@ProcessorStepRegistry.register(name="myenv_processor")
-class MyEnvProcessorStep(ObservationProcessorStep):
-    """Process observations from MyEnv."""
-
-    def _process_observation(self, observation):
-        processed = observation.copy()
-
-        # Your environment-specific transformations
-        if "myenv.specific.state" in processed:
-            state = processed.pop("myenv.specific.state")
-            # Transform to standard format
-            processed["observation.state"] = self._transform_state(state)
-
-        return processed
-```
-
-### 2. Update Your `EnvConfig` Subclass
-
-```python
-# In src/lerobot/envs/factory.py
-
-def make_env_pre_post_processors(env_cfg: EnvConfig):
-    if isinstance(env_cfg, LiberoEnv) or "libero" in env_cfg.type:
-        preprocessor = PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[LiberoProcessorStep()])
-    elif isinstance(env_cfg, MyEnvConfig) or "myenv" in env_cfg.type:
-        preprocessor = PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[MyEnvProcessorStep()])
-    else:
-        preprocessor = PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[])
-
-    postprocessor = PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[])
-    return preprocessor, postprocessor
-```
-
-### 3. Use in Evaluation
-
-No changes needed! The evaluation script automatically uses the appropriate processor:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-    --policy.path=lerobot/my_policy \
-    --env.type=myenv \  # Automatically uses MyEnvProcessorStep
-    --eval.n_episodes=10
-```
-
-## Future: Environment Postprocessors
-
-Currently, postprocessors are identity (no-op) for all environments. Future use cases include:
-
-### Action Space Transformations
-
-```python
-@dataclass
-class MyEnvActionPostprocessor(ProcessorStep):
-    """Convert policy actions to environment-specific format."""
-
-    def __call__(self, transition: EnvTransition) -> EnvTransition:
-        action = transition["action"]
-
-        # Example: Convert from Cartesian to joint space
-        if self.action_space == "joint":
-            action = self.ik_solver(action)
-
-        # Example: Apply environment-specific safety limits
-        action = torch.clamp(action, self.min_action, self.max_action)
-
-        transition["action"] = action
-        return transition
-```
-
-### Coordinate System Conversions
-
-```python
-@dataclass
-class CoordinateTransformPostprocessor(ProcessorStep):
-    """Transform actions between coordinate systems."""
-
-    def __call__(self, transition: EnvTransition) -> EnvTransition:
-        action = transition["action"]
-
-        # Example: Policy outputs in world frame, env expects base frame
-        action = self.world_to_base_transform(action)
-
-        transition["action"] = action
-        return transition
-```
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Keep environment processors simple**: They should only handle environment-specific data format issues, not complex learning-related transformations.
-
-2. **Use policy processors for model requirements**: Normalization, batching, device placement, and tokenization belong in policy processors.
-
-3. **Expose all data from environments**: Let processors decide what to use rather than hardcoding choices in the environment.
-
-4. **Document conventions**: Clearly document any coordinate system conventions, camera orientations, or data formats that your processor handles.
-
-5. **Test independently**: Environment processors should be testable without loading full policies or environments.
-
-## Summary
-
-Environment processors provide a **clean separation** between environment-specific data transformations and policy-specific model requirements. This architecture:
-
- ✅ Enables easy experimentation with different state representations
- ✅ Allows policies to work seamlessly across different environments
- ✅ Keeps environment code focused on simulation/hardware interface
- ✅ Makes processor pipelines more maintainable and debuggable
- ✅ Follows the single responsibility principle
-
-The key insight: **Environments define data formats, processors standardize them, policies consume standardized data.** Each layer has a clear, focused responsibility.

 The **EnvHub** feature allows you to load simulation environments directly from the Hugging Face Hub with a single line of code. This unlocks a powerful new model for collaboration: instead of environments being locked away inside monolithic libraries, anyone can publish custom environments and share them with the community.

-## What is EnvHub?
+## Overview

-EnvHub lets you create custom robotics simulation environments with your own robot models and scenarios, and make them easily usable by anyone through the LeRobot framework.
+With EnvHub, you can:

-EnvHub packages are stored on the Hugging Face Hub, and can be seamlessly pulled and used in your AI robotics projects through LeRobot with a single line of code.
-
-Thanks to EnvHub, you can:
-
-1. **Create and publish environments** to the Hugging Face Hub as Git repositories, and distribute complex physics simulations without packaging hassles
-2. **Load environments** dynamically, without installing them as packages
-3. **Version and track** environment changes using Git semantics
-4. **Discover** new simulation tasks shared by the community
-
-This design means you can go from discovering an interesting environment on the Hub to running experiments in seconds, or create your own custom robot and environment without worrying about dependency conflicts or complex installation procedures.
-
-When you create an EnvHub package, you can build anything you want inside it and use any simulation tool you like: this is your own space to play with. The only requirement is that the package contains an `env.py` file that defines the environment and allows LeRobot to load and use your EnvHub package.
-
-This `env.py` file needs to expose a small API so LeRobot can load and run it. In particular, you must provide a `make_env(n_envs: int = 1, use_async_envs: bool = False)` or `make_env(n_envs: int = 1, use_async_envs: bool = False, cfg: EnvConfig)` function, which is the main entry point for LeRobot. It should return one of:
-
- A `gym.vector.VectorEnv` (most common)
- A single `gym.Env` (will be automatically wrapped)
- A dict mapping `{suite_name: {task_id: VectorEnv}}` (for multi-task benchmarks)
-
-You can also pass an `EnvConfig` object to `make_env` to configure the environment (e.g. the number of environments, task, camera name, initial states, control mode, episode length, etc.).
-
-Finally, your environment must implement the standard `gym.vector.VectorEnv` interface so it works with LeRobot, including methods like `reset` and `step`.

-
-## Creating New Environments
-
-First create a new IsaacLab Arena environment by following the [IsaacLab Arena Documentation](https://isaac-sim.github.io/IsaacLab-Arena/release/0.1.1/index.html).
-
-Clone our EnvHub repo:
-
-```bash
-git clone https://huggingface.co/nvidia/isaaclab-arena-envs
-```
-
-Modify the `example_envs.yaml` file based on your new environment.
-[Upload](./envhub#step-3-upload-to-the-hub) your modified repo to HuggingFace EnvHub.
-
-<Tip>
-  Your IsaacLab Arena environment code must be locally available during
-  evaluation. Users can clone your environment repository separately, or you can
-  bundle the environment code and assets directly in your EnvHub repo.
-</Tip>
-
-Then, when evaluating, use your new environment:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-    --env.hub_path=<your-env-hub-path>/isaaclab-arena-envs \
-    --env.environment=<your new environment> \
-    ...other flags...
-```
-
-We look forward to your contributions!

-/>
-
-## How to get started, environment Setup
-
-Run the following commands to setup your code environments:
-
-```bash
-# Refer to Getting Started/Installation to install leisaac firstly
-conda create -n leisaac_envhub python=3.11
-conda activate leisaac_envhub
-
-conda install -c "nvidia/label/cuda-12.8.1" cuda-toolkit
-pip install -U torch==2.7.0 torchvision==0.22.0 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128
-pip install 'leisaac[isaaclab] @ git+https://github.com/LightwheelAI/leisaac.git#subdirectory=source/leisaac' --extra-index-url https://pypi.nvidia.com
-
-# Install lerobot
-pip install lerobot==0.4.1
-
-# Fix numpy version
-pip install numpy==1.26.0
-```
-
-## Usage Example
-
-EnvHub exposes every LeIsaac-supported task in a uniform interface. The examples below load `so101_pick_orange` and demonstrate a random-action rollout and an interactive teleoperation.
-
-### Random Action
-
-<details>
-<summary>Click to expand code example</summary>
-
-```python
-# envhub_random_action.py
-
-import torch
-from lerobot.envs.factory import make_env
-
-# Load from the hub
-envs_dict = make_env("LightwheelAI/leisaac_env:envs/so101_pick_orange.py", n_envs=1, trust_remote_code=True)
-
-# Access the environment
-suite_name = next(iter(envs_dict))
-sync_vector_env = envs_dict[suite_name][0]
-# retrieve the isaac environment from the sync vector env
-env = sync_vector_env.envs[0].unwrapped
-
-# Use it like any gym environment
-obs, info = env.reset()
-
-while True:
-    action = torch.tensor(env.action_space.sample())
-    obs, reward, terminated, truncated, info = env.step(action)
-    if terminated or truncated:
-        obs, info = env.reset()
-
-env.close()
-```
-
-</details>
-
-```bash
-python envhub_random_action.py
-```
-
-You should see the SO101 arm swinging under purely random commands.
-
-### Teleoperation
-
-LeRobot’s teleoperation stack can drive the simulated arm.
-
-Connect the SO101 Leader controller, run the calibration command below.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-calibrate \
-    --teleop.type=so101_leader \
-    --teleop.port=/dev/ttyACM0 \
-    --teleop.id=leader
-```
-
-And then launch the teleop script.

-## Additional Notes
-
-We keep EnvHub coverage aligned with the LeIsaac task. Currently supported:
-
- `so101_pick_orange`
- `so101_lift_cube`
- `so101_clean_toytable`
- `bi_so101_fold_cloth`
-
-Switch tasks by targeting a different script when calling `make_env`, for example:
-
-```python
-envs_dict_pick_orange = make_env("LightwheelAI/leisaac_env:envs/so101_pick_orange.py", n_envs=1, trust_remote_code=True)

-# Feetech Troubleshooting and Motor Firmware Update

-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Position Overflow
-
-If during calibration you encounter an error like this:
-
-```bash
-ValueError: Magnitude 2816 exceeds 2047 (max for sign_bit_index=11)
-```
-
-Or
-
-```bash
-RuntimeError: Some motors have invalid position readings {'wrist_roll': 6015}, which can lead to incorrect homing offsets.
-```
-
-The firmware may be overflowing and returning incorrect position readings (usually they should sit within [0, 4095]).
-
-**Quick fix:** Try to disconnect the robot's AC power and USB cable, move it to the middle of its range of motion, then reconnect and rerun the calibration script. This should give you correct position readings again.
-
-If the issue persists, you can try to reset the positions of the motors:
-
-1. Complete the first 4 steps of the motor firmware update process
-2. Select the _Programming_ tab
-3. Move all joints to the middle of their range
-4. Click _Offset_

-# Human-In-the-Loop Data Collection
-
-Human-In-the-Loop (HIL) data collection lets you improve a trained policy by deploying it on a real robot while a human operator monitors and intervenes when needed. The intervention data (recovery movements and corrections) is recorded alongside autonomous segments, producing a richer training dataset that teaches the policy how to handle failures.
-
---
-
-## Why Human-In-the-Loop?
-
-Standard behavioral cloning trains policies on successful demonstrations only. During deployment, small errors can compound and push the robot into states never seen during training (distribution shift). HIL data collection addresses this by:
-
- Running the trained policy on the real robot
- Having a human intervene when the robot is about to fail
- Recording the human's recovery and correction as training data
- Fine-tuning the policy on the combined dataset
-
-This produces a policy that not only knows how to perform the task, but also how to recover when things go wrong.
-
---
-
-## How It Works
-
-During a HIL session, the human operator follows this loop within each episode:
-
-1. **Watch** the policy run autonomously
-2. **Pause** when failure is imminent, the robot holds its position
-3. **Take control** and teleoperate the robot back to a good state (recovery), then correct the behavior
-4. **Return control to the policy**, the policy resumes autonomous execution
-5. Repeat steps 2–4 as many times as needed during the episode
-6. **End the episode** when the task is complete, save and move on to the next rollout
-
-Both autonomous and human-controlled segments are recorded. The policy and human can alternate control multiple times within a single episode, and the episode continues from the current state after each handoff (no reset required just because intervention happened). This captures autonomous execution, recovery, and correction in one continuous trajectory. After collection, the combined dataset (original demonstrations + HIL data) is used to fine-tune the policy.
-
-This process can be repeated iteratively: deploy, collect, fine-tune, repeat. Each round targets the current policy's failure modes.
-

-## Hardware Requirements
-
-### Teleoperator Requirements
-
-The `examples/hil` HIL scripts require **teleoperators with active motors** that can:
-
- Enable/disable torque programmatically
- Move to target positions (to mirror the robot state when pausing)
-
-**Compatible teleoperators in the current `examples/hil` scripts:**
-
- `openarm_mini` - OpenArm Mini
- `so_leader` - SO100 / SO101 leader arm
-
-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> The provided `examples/hil` commands default to `bi_openarm_follower` + `openarm_mini`.
-> `so_follower` + `so_leader` configs are also registered and can be used via CLI flags.

-## Script
-
-A single script handles both synchronous and RTC-based inference. Toggle RTC with `--rtc.enabled=true`:
-
-| Mode                     | Flag                 | Models                |
-| ------------------------ | -------------------- | --------------------- |
-| Standard (default)       | _(no flag needed)_   | ACT, Diffusion Policy |
-| Real-Time Chunking (RTC) | `--rtc.enabled=true` | Pi0, Pi0.5, SmolVLA   |
-
---
-
-## Step-by-Step Guide
-
-### Step 1: Pre-train a Base Policy
-
-First, train a policy on your demonstration dataset:
-
-```bash
-python src/lerobot/scripts/lerobot_train.py \
-    --dataset.repo_id=your-username/demo-dataset \
-    --policy.type=pi0 \
-    --output_dir=outputs/pretrain \
-    --batch_size=32 \
-    --steps=50000
-```
-
-### Step 2: Collect HIL Data
-
-**Standard inference (ACT, Diffusion Policy):**
-
-```bash
-python examples/hil/hil_data_collection.py \
-    --robot.type=bi_openarm_follower \
-    --robot.left_arm_config.port=can1 \
-    --robot.left_arm_config.side=left \
-    --robot.right_arm_config.port=can0 \
-    --robot.right_arm_config.side=right \
-    --robot.cameras='{left_wrist: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video0", width: 1280, height: 720, fps: 30}, right_wrist: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video4", width: 1280, height: 720, fps: 30}, base: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video2", width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}' \
-    --teleop.type=openarm_mini \
-    --teleop.port_left=/dev/ttyACM0 \
-    --teleop.port_right=/dev/ttyACM1 \
-    --policy.path=outputs/pretrain/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model \
-    --dataset.repo_id=your-username/hil-dataset \
-    --dataset.single_task="Fold the T-shirt properly" \
-    --dataset.fps=30 \
-    --dataset.episode_time_s=1000 \
-    --dataset.num_episodes=50 \
-    --interpolation_multiplier=2
-```
-
-**With RTC for large models (Pi0, Pi0.5, SmolVLA):**
-
-For models with high inference latency, enable RTC for smooth execution:
-
-```bash
-python examples/hil/hil_data_collection.py \
-    --rtc.enabled=true \
-    --rtc.execution_horizon=20 \
-    --rtc.max_guidance_weight=5.0 \
-    --rtc.prefix_attention_schedule=LINEAR \
-    --robot.type=bi_openarm_follower \
-    --robot.left_arm_config.port=can1 \
-    --robot.left_arm_config.side=left \
-    --robot.right_arm_config.port=can0 \
-    --robot.right_arm_config.side=right \
-    --robot.cameras='{left_wrist: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video0", width: 1280, height: 720, fps: 30}, right_wrist: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video4", width: 1280, height: 720, fps: 30}, base: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video2", width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}' \
-    --teleop.type=openarm_mini \
-    --teleop.port_left=/dev/ttyACM0 \
-    --teleop.port_right=/dev/ttyACM1 \
-    --policy.path=outputs/pretrain/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model \
-    --dataset.repo_id=your-username/hil-rtc-dataset \
-    --dataset.single_task="Fold the T-shirt properly" \
-    --dataset.fps=30 \
-    --dataset.episode_time_s=1000 \
-    --dataset.num_episodes=50 \
-    --interpolation_multiplier=3
-```
-
-**Controls (Conceptual):**
-
-The interaction model is:
-
- **Pause input**: pause autonomous policy execution
- **Takeover input**: transfer control to the human operator and record intervention data
- **Return-to-policy input**: hand control back to the policy and continue the same episode
- **Episode control inputs**: save/re-record/stop/reset as needed
-
-Exact key/pedal bindings can differ across scripts and hardware integrations. Use each script's printed controls as the source of truth for the concrete mapping on your setup.
-
-**The HIL Protocol:**
-
-1. Watch the policy run autonomously (teleop is idle/free)
-2. When you see imminent failure, trigger the **pause input**
-   - Policy stops
-   - Teleoperator moves to match robot position (torque enabled)
-   - No frames recorded during pause
-3. Trigger the **takeover input** to take control
-   - Teleoperator torque disabled, free to move
-   - **Recovery**: Teleoperate the robot back to a good state
-   - **Correction**: Correct the behavior
-   - All movements are recorded
-4. Trigger the **return-to-policy input**
-   - Policy resumes autonomous execution from the current state
-   - You can intervene again at any time (repeat steps 2–4)
-5. End and save the episode when the task is complete (or episode time limit is reached)
-6. **Reset**: Teleop moves to robot position, you can move the robot to the starting position
-7. Start the next episode
-
-**Foot Pedal Setup (Linux):**
-
-If using a USB foot pedal (PCsensor FootSwitch), ensure access:
-
-```bash
-sudo setfacl -m u:$USER:rw /dev/input/by-id/usb-PCsensor_FootSwitch-event-kbd
-```
-
-### Step 3: Fine-tune the Policy
-
-Fine-tune on the **combined** dataset (`demo-dataset` + `hil-dataset` merged together):
-
-```bash
-python src/lerobot/scripts/lerobot_train.py \
-    --dataset.repo_id=your-username/hil-dataset \
-    --policy.type=pi0 \
-    --policy.pretrained_path=outputs/pretrain/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model \
-    --output_dir=outputs/hil_finetune \
-    --steps=20000
-```
-
-Then deploy the fine-tuned policy and repeat from Step 2 to target its remaining failure modes.

-## Tips for Effective HIL Collection
-
-### When to Intervene
-
-Intervene when you see:
-
- Robot about to make an irreversible mistake
- Robot hesitating or showing uncertain behavior
- Robot deviating from the expected trajectory
-
-### Recovery: Teleoperating Back to a Good State
-
-During recovery, teleoperate the robot back to a state where:
-
- The robot is in a familiar, in-distribution configuration
- The current subtask can still be completed
- The recovery trajectory itself is informative training data
-
-### Quality of Corrections
-
-During correction:
-
- Provide **confident, clean** trajectories
- Complete the current subtask fully
- Don't overcorrect or add unnecessary movements
-
---
-
-## Related Work
-
-This HIL data collection approach builds on ideas from interactive imitation learning:
-
- **DAgger** (Ross et al., 2011) introduced the core idea: instead of only training on expert demonstrations, query the expert for corrections on states the _learner_ visits. This breaks the compounding-error cycle of standard behavioral cloning by iteratively collecting on-policy data.
-
- **HG-DAgger** (Kelly et al., 2019) made this practical for robotics: a human expert monitors the robot and only intervenes when needed, rather than labeling every state. The gating between autonomous and human control is exactly the pause → takeover → return-to-policy loop used in the scripts here.
-
- **RaC** (Hu et al., 2025) scales this loop to long-horizon tasks by explicitly decomposing interventions into **recovery** (teleoperating back to a good state) and **correction** (demonstrating the right behavior from there). This decomposition is the protocol followed by the HIL scripts in `examples/hil`.
-
- **π0.6/RECAP** (Physical Intelligence, 2025) applies the same iterative collect-and-finetune loop at scale with VLA models, showing that even large pretrained policies benefit substantially from targeted human corrections on their own failure modes. π0.6 is trained using RECAP.

+# Imitation Learning in Sim
+
+This tutorial will explain how to train a neural network to control a robot in simulation with imitation learning.
+
+**You'll learn:**
+
+1. How to record a dataset in simulation with [gym-hil](https://github.com/huggingface/gym-hil) and visualize the dataset.
+2. How to train a policy using your data.
+3. How to evaluate your policy in simulation and visualize the results.
+
+For the simulation environment we use the same [repo](https://github.com/huggingface/gym-hil) that is also being used by the Human-In-the-Loop (HIL) reinforcement learning algorithm.
+This environment is based on [MuJoCo](https://mujoco.org) and allows you to record datasets in LeRobotDataset format.
+Teleoperation is easiest with a controller like the Logitech F710, but you can also use your keyboard if you are up for the challenge.
+
+## Installation
+
+First, install the `gym_hil` package within the LeRobot environment, go to your LeRobot folder and run this command:
+
+```bash
+pip install -e ".[hilserl]"
+```
+
+## Teleoperate and Record a Dataset
+
+To use `gym_hil` with LeRobot, you need to use a configuration file. An example config file can be found [here](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/config_examples/resolve/main/sim_il/env_config.json).
+
+To teleoperate and collect a dataset, we need to modify this config file. Here's an example configuration for imitation learning data collection:
+
+```json
+{
+  "env": {
+    "type": "gym_manipulator",
+    "name": "gym_hil",
+    "task": "PandaPickCubeGamepad-v0",
+    "fps": 10
+  },
+  "dataset": {
+    "repo_id": "your_username/il_gym",
+    "root": null,
+    "task": "pick_cube",
+    "num_episodes_to_record": 30,
+    "replay_episode": null,
+    "push_to_hub": true
+  },
+  "mode": "record",
+  "device": "cuda"
+}
+```
+
+Key configuration points:
+
+- Set your `repo_id` in the `dataset` section: `"repo_id": "your_username/il_gym"`
+- Set `num_episodes_to_record: 30` to collect 30 demonstration episodes
+- Ensure `mode` is set to `"record"`
+- If you don't have an NVIDIA GPU, change `"device": "cuda"` to `"mps"` for macOS or `"cpu"`
+- To use keyboard instead of gamepad, change `"task"` to `"PandaPickCubeKeyboard-v0"`
+
+Then we can run this command to start:
+
+<hfoptions id="teleop_sim">
+<hfoption id="Linux">
+
+```bash
+python -m lerobot.rl.gym_manipulator --config_path path/to/env_config_gym_hil_il.json
+```
+
+</hfoption>
+<hfoption id="MacOS">
+
+```bash
+mjpython -m lerobot.rl.gym_manipulator --config_path path/to/env_config_gym_hil_il.json
+```
+
+</hfoption>
+</hfoptions>
+
+Once rendered you can teleoperate the robot with the gamepad or keyboard, below you can find the gamepad/keyboard controls.
+
+Note that to teleoperate the robot you have to hold the "Human Take Over Pause Policy" Button `RB` to enable control!
+
+**Gamepad Controls**
+
+<p align="center">
+  <img
+    src="https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/lerobot/gamepad_guide.jpg?raw=true"
+    alt="Figure shows the control mappings on a Logitech gamepad."
+    title="Gamepad Control Mapping"
+    width="100%"
+  ></img>
+</p>
+<p align="center">
+  <i>Gamepad button mapping for robot control and episode management</i>
+</p>
+
+**Keyboard controls**
+
+For keyboard controls use the `spacebar` to enable control and the following keys to move the robot:
+
+```bash
+  Arrow keys: Move in X-Y plane
+  Shift and Shift_R: Move in Z axis
+  Right Ctrl and Left Ctrl: Open and close gripper
+  ESC: Exit
+```
+
+## Visualize a dataset
+
+If you uploaded your dataset to the hub you can [visualize your dataset online](https://huggingface.co/spaces/lerobot/visualize_dataset) by copy pasting your repo id.
+
+<p align="center">
+  <img
+    src="https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/lerobot/dataset_visualizer_sim.png"
+    alt="Figure shows the dataset visualizer"
+    title="Dataset visualization"
+    width="100%"
+  ></img>
+</p>
+<p align="center">
+  <i>Dataset visualizer</i>
+</p>
+
+## Train a policy
+
+To train a policy to control your robot, use the [`lerobot-train`](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/src/lerobot/scripts/train.py) script. A few arguments are required. Here is an example command:
+
+```bash
+lerobot-train \
+  --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/il_gym \
+  --policy.type=act \
+  --output_dir=outputs/train/il_sim_test \
+  --job_name=il_sim_test \
+  --policy.device=cuda \
+  --wandb.enable=true
+```
+
+Let's explain the command:
+
+1. We provided the dataset as argument with `--dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/il_gym`.
+2. We provided the policy with `policy.type=act`. This loads configurations from [`configuration_act.py`](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/src/lerobot/policies/act/configuration_act.py). Importantly, this policy will automatically adapt to the number of motor states, motor actions and cameras of your robot (e.g. `laptop` and `phone`) which have been saved in your dataset.
+3. We provided `policy.device=cuda` since we are training on a Nvidia GPU, but you could use `policy.device=mps` to train on Apple silicon.
+4. We provided `wandb.enable=true` to use [Weights and Biases](https://docs.wandb.ai/quickstart) for visualizing training plots. This is optional but if you use it, make sure you are logged in by running `wandb login`.
+
+Training should take several hours, 100k steps (which is the default) will take about 1h on Nvidia A100. You will find checkpoints in `outputs/train/il_sim_test/checkpoints`.
+
+#### Train using Collab
+
+If your local computer doesn't have a powerful GPU you could utilize Google Collab to train your model by following the [ACT training notebook](./notebooks#training-act).
+
+#### Upload policy checkpoints
+
+Once training is done, upload the latest checkpoint with:
+
+```bash
+huggingface-cli upload ${HF_USER}/il_sim_test \
+  outputs/train/il_sim_test/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model
+```
+
+You can also upload intermediate checkpoints with:
+
+```bash
+CKPT=010000
+huggingface-cli upload ${HF_USER}/il_sim_test${CKPT} \
+  outputs/train/il_sim_test/checkpoints/${CKPT}/pretrained_model
+```
+
+## Evaluate your policy in Sim
+
+To evaluate your policy we have to use a configuration file. An example can be found [here](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/config_examples/resolve/main/sim_il/eval_config.json).
+
+Here's an example evaluation configuration:
+
+```json
+{
+  "env": {
+    "type": "gym_manipulator",
+    "name": "gym_hil",
+    "task": "PandaPickCubeGamepad-v0",
+    "fps": 10
+  },
+  "dataset": {
+    "repo_id": "your_username/il_sim_dataset",
+    "dataset_root": null,
+    "task": "pick_cube"
+  },
+  "pretrained_policy_name_or_path": "your_username/il_sim_model",
+  "device": "cuda"
+}
+```
+
+Make sure to replace:
+
+- `repo_id` with the dataset you trained on (e.g., `your_username/il_sim_dataset`)
+- `pretrained_policy_name_or_path` with your model ID (e.g., `your_username/il_sim_model`)
+
+Then you can run this command to visualize your trained policy
+
+<hfoptions id="eval_policy">
+<hfoption id="Linux">
+
+```bash
+python -m lerobot.rl.eval_policy --config_path=path/to/eval_config_gym_hil.json
+```
+
+</hfoption>
+<hfoption id="MacOS">
+
+```bash
+mjpython -m lerobot.rl.eval_policy --config_path=path/to/eval_config_gym_hil.json
+```
+
+</hfoption>
+</hfoptions>
+
+> [!WARNING]
+> While the main workflow of training ACT in simulation is straightforward, there is significant room for exploring how to set up the task, define the initial state of the environment, and determine the type of data required during collection to learn the most effective policy. If your trained policy doesn't perform well, investigate the quality of the dataset it was trained on using our visualizers, as well as the action values and various hyperparameters related to ACT and the simulation.

-### Install `ffmpeg` (for video decoding)
-
-LeRobot uses [TorchCodec](https://github.com/meta-pytorch/torchcodec) for video decoding by default, which requires `ffmpeg`.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> **Platform support:** TorchCodec is **not available** on macOS Intel (x86_64), Linux ARM (aarch64, arm64, armv7l), or Windows with PyTorch < 2.8. On these platforms, LeRobot automatically falls back to `pyav` — so you do not need to install `ffmpeg` and can skip to Step 3.

+When using `conda`, install `ffmpeg` in your environment:

 ```bash

 > [!TIP]
-> This usually installs `ffmpeg 8.X` with the `libsvtav1` encoder. If you run into issues (e.g. `libsvtav1` missing — check with `ffmpeg -encoders` — or a version mismatch with `torchcodec`), you can explicitly install `ffmpeg 7.1.1` using:

-Starting with **PyTorch >= 2.10** (TorchCodec ≥ 0.10), TorchCodec can dynamically link to a system-wide `ffmpeg` installation. This is useful when using `uv` or other non-`conda` environment managers:

 # LIBERO

-LIBERO is a benchmark designed to study **lifelong robot learning** — the idea that robots need to keep learning and adapting with their users over time, not just be pretrained once. It provides a set of standardized manipulation tasks that focus on **knowledge transfer**: how well a robot can apply what it has already learned to new situations. By evaluating on LIBERO, different algorithms can be compared fairly and researchers can build on each other's work.
+**LIBERO** is a benchmark designed to study **lifelong robot learning**. The idea is that robots won’t just be pretrained once in a factory, they’ll need to keep learning and adapting with their human users over time. This ongoing adaptation is called **lifelong learning in decision making (LLDM)**, and it’s a key step toward building robots that become truly personalized helpers.

+To make progress on this challenge, LIBERO provides a set of standardized tasks that focus on **knowledge transfer**: how well a robot can apply what it has already learned to new situations. By evaluating on LIBERO, different algorithms can be compared fairly and researchers can build on each other’s work.
+
+LIBERO includes **five task suites**:
+
+- **LIBERO-Spatial (`libero_spatial`)** – tasks that require reasoning about spatial relations.
+- **LIBERO-Object (`libero_object`)** – tasks centered on manipulating different objects.
+- **LIBERO-Goal (`libero_goal`)** – goal-conditioned tasks where the robot must adapt to changing targets.
+- **LIBERO-90 (`libero_90`)** – 90 short-horizon tasks from the LIBERO-100 collection.
+- **LIBERO-Long (`libero_10`)** – 10 long-horizon tasks from the LIBERO-100 collection.
+
+Together, these suites cover **130 tasks**, ranging from simple object manipulations to complex multi-step scenarios. LIBERO is meant to grow over time, and to serve as a shared benchmark where the community can test and improve lifelong learning algorithms.

+## Why Meta-World matters

-Meta-World provides 50 tasks organized into difficulty groups. In LeRobot, you can evaluate on individual tasks, difficulty groups, or the full MT50 suite:
+- **Diverse, realistic tasks.** Meta-World bundles a large suite of simulated manipulation tasks (50 in the MT50 suite) using everyday objects and a common tabletop Sawyer arm. This diversity exposes algorithms to a wide variety of dynamics, contacts and goal specifications while keeping a consistent control and observation structure.
+- **Focus on generalization and multi-task learning.** By evaluating across task distributions that share structure but differ in goals and objects, Meta-World reveals whether an agent truly learns transferable skills rather than overfitting to a narrow task.
+- **Standardized evaluation protocol.** It provides clear evaluation modes and difficulty splits, so different methods can be compared fairly across easy, medium, hard and very-hard regimes.
+- **Empirical insight.** Past evaluations on Meta-World show impressive progress on some fronts, but also highlight that current multi-task and meta-RL methods still struggle with large, diverse task sets. That gap points to important research directions.

-| Medium     | `medium`             | 11    | Tasks requiring multi-step reasoning                   |
-| Hard       | `hard`               | 6     | Tasks with complex contacts and precise manipulation   |
-| Very Hard  | `very_hard`          | 5     | The most challenging tasks in the suite                |
-| MT50 (all) | Comma-separated list | 50    | All 50 tasks — the most challenging multi-task setting |
+## What it enables in LeRobot

-You can also pass individual task names directly (e.g., `assembly-v3`, `dial-turn-v3`).
+In LeRobot, you can evaluate any policy or vision-language-action (VLA) model on Meta-World tasks and get a clear success-rate measure. The integration is designed to be straightforward:

-We provide a LeRobot-ready dataset for Meta-World MT50 on the HF Hub: [lerobot/metaworld_mt50](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/metaworld_mt50). This dataset is formatted for the MT50 evaluation that uses all 50 tasks with fixed object/goal positions and one-hot task vectors for consistency.

-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=10
-```
-
- `--env.task` accepts explicit task lists (comma-separated) or difficulty groups (e.g., `easy`, `medium`, `hard`, `very_hard`).
- `--eval.batch_size` controls how many environments run in parallel.
- `--eval.n_episodes` sets how many episodes to run per task.
-
-### Policy inputs and outputs
-
-**Observations:**
-
- `observation.image` — single camera view (`corner2`), 480x480 HWC uint8
- `observation.state` — 4-dim proprioceptive state (end-effector position + gripper)
-
-**Actions:**
-
- Continuous control in `Box(-1, 1, shape=(4,))` — 3D end-effector delta + 1D gripper
-
-### Recommended evaluation episodes
-
-For reproducible benchmarking, use **10 episodes per task**. For the full MT50 suite this gives 500 total episodes. If you care about generalization, run on the full MT50 — it is intentionally challenging and reveals strengths/weaknesses better than a few narrow tasks.

-# Multitask DiT Policy
-
-Multitask Diffusion Transformer (DiT) Policy is an evolution of the original Diffusion Policy architecture, which leverages a large DiT with text and vision conditioning for multitask robot learning. This implementation supports both diffusion and flow matching objectives for action generation, enabling robots to perform diverse manipulation tasks conditioned on language instructions.
-
-## Model Overview
-
-The model uses:
-
- **CLIP Vision Encoder**: Processes RGB images from multiple camera views
- **CLIP Text Encoder**: Encodes language task instructions (frozen weights with learnable projection)
- **Diffusion Transformer**: Predicts action sequences conditioned on observations and language
- **Two Objectives**: Supports both diffusion (DDPM/DDIM) and flow matching for action generation
-
-This model is exciting because you can achieve extremely high dexterity, competitive with multi-billion parameter
-VLAs, with only ~450M parameters and significantly less training.
-
-## Installation Requirements
-
-Multitask DiT Policy has additional dependencies. Install it with:
-
-```bash
-pip install lerobot[multi_task_dit]
-```
-
-This will install all necessary dependencies including the HuggingFace Transformers library for CLIP models.
-
-## Usage
-
-To use Multitask DiT in your LeRobot configuration, specify the policy type as:
-
-```python
-policy.type=multi_task_dit
-```
-
-## Training
-
-### Basic Training Command
-
-Here's a complete training command for training Multitask DiT on your dataset:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --dataset.repo_id=YOUR_DATASET \
-  --output_dir=./outputs/multitask_dit_training \

-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  --policy.repo_id="HF_USER/multitask-dit-your-robot" \
-  --wandb.enable=true
-```
-
-### Recommended Hyperparameters and Dataset Details (30Hz Control Frequency)
-
-For reliable performance, start with these suggested default hyperparameters:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --dataset.repo_id=YOUR_DATASET \
-  --output_dir=./outputs/mutitask_dit_training \
-  --batch_size=320 \
-  --steps=30000 \

-  --policy.noise_scheduler_type=DDPM \
-  --policy.num_train_timesteps=100 \
-  --policy.repo_id="HF_USER/multitask-dit-your-robot" \
-  --wandb.enable=true
-```
-
-**Key Parameters:**
-
- **Batch Size**: 192-320 - If you have access to a GPU that can support this, you will get the best training dynamics
- **Horizon**: 32 - number of action steps to predict, ~1.0 sec at 30Hz
- **n_action_steps**: 24 - ~0.8 seconds at 30Hz
- **Objective**: `diffusion` - start with diffusion and experiment with flow matching if generation quality is poor
- **Training Steps**: >30k steps recommended for a single task
-
-### Training Configuration Parameters
-
-#### Objective Selection
-
-Choose between diffusion and flow matching:
-
-```bash
-# Diffusion objective (default)
--policy.objective=diffusion \
--policy.noise_scheduler_type=DDPM \  # or "DDIM"
--policy.num_train_timesteps=100 \
--policy.num_inference_steps=10 \  # For faster inference
--policy.beta_schedule=squaredcos_cap_v2 \  # Noise schedule type
--policy.prediction_type=epsilon \  # "epsilon" (predict noise) or "sample" (predict clean)
--policy.clip_sample=true \  # Clip samples during denoising
--policy.clip_sample_range=1.0  # Clipping range [-x, x]
-
-# Flow matching objective
--policy.objective=flow_matching \
--policy.timestep_sampling_strategy=beta \  # or "uniform" | the beta sampling strategy performance appears much better in practice
--policy.num_integration_steps=100 \
--policy.integration_method=euler \  # or "rk4"
--policy.sigma_min=0.0  # Minimum noise in flow interpolation path
-```
-
-#### Transformer Architecture
-
-Adjust model capacity based on dataset size:
-
-```bash
-# Small datasets (< 100 examples)
--policy.num_layers=4 \
--policy.hidden_dim=512 \
--policy.num_heads=8  # should ideally be hidden_dim // 64
-
-# Medium datasets (100-5k examples) - default
--policy.num_layers=6 \
--policy.hidden_dim=512 \
--policy.num_heads=8  # should ideally be hidden_dim // 64
-
-# Large datasets (> 5k examples)
--policy.num_layers=8 \
--policy.hidden_dim=512 \
--policy.num_heads=8   # should ideally be hidden_dim // 64
-```
-
-**Positional Encoding Options:**
-
-The model supports two positional encoding methods for action sequences:
-
-```bash
-# Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE) - default, recommended
--policy.use_rope=true \
--policy.rope_base=10000.0  # Base frequency for RoPE
-
-# Absolute positional encoding
--policy.use_positional_encoding=true  # Disables RoPE when true
-```
-
-**Other Transformer Parameters:**
-
-```bash
--policy.dropout=0.1  # Dropout rate for DiT blocks (0.0-1.0)
--policy.timestep_embed_dim=256  # Timestep embedding dimension
-```
-
-#### Vision Encoder Configuration
-
-```bash
-# Use different CLIP model for more expressivity at the cost of inference time
-# experiment with larger or smaller models depending on the complexity of your tasks and size of dataset
--policy.vision_encoder_name=openai/clip-vit-large-patch14
-
-# Use separate vision encoder per camera
-# This may be useful when cameras have significantly different characteristics, but
-# be wary of increased VRAM footprint.
--policy.use_separate_rgb_encoder_per_camera=true
-
-# Image preprocessing
--policy.image_resize_shape=[XXX,YYY] \ # you may need to resize your images for inference speed ups
--policy.image_crop_shape=[224,224] \
--policy.image_crop_is_random=true  # Random during training, center at inference
-```
-
-#### Text Encoder Configuration
-
-```bash
-# Use different CLIP text encoder model
-# same as vision: experiment with larger or smaller models depending on the
-# complexity of your tasks and size of dataset
--policy.text_encoder_name=openai/clip-vit-large-patch14
-```
-
-#### Learning Rate Configuration
-
-The vision encoder uses a separate learning rate multiplier, where 1/10th is suggested to be the ideal staritng point:
-
-```bash
--policy.optimizer_lr=2e-5 \
--policy.vision_encoder_lr_multiplier=0.1  # Vision encoder LR = 0.1 * optimizer_lr
-```
-
-### Training Tuning Guidelines
-
-#### 1. Flow Matching with Beta Sampling
-
-The original diffusion implementation here is based on the work described in [TRI's LBM paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2507.05331)
-
-Additionally, we have implemented a flow-matching objective, which is described at a high-level in [Boston Dynamics blog post](https://bostondynamics.com/blog/large-behavior-models-atlas-find-new-footing/).
-
-Consider testing the flow-matching objective and evaluating performance differences for your task:
-
-```bash
--policy.objective=flow_matching \
--policy.timestep_sampling_strategy=beta \
--policy.timestep_sampling_alpha=1.5 \
--policy.timestep_sampling_beta=1.0 \
--policy.timestep_sampling_s=0.999
-```
-
-This hasn't been shown to be a silver bullet across every user case, but it occasionally results in smoother and more consistent actions.
-
-#### 2. Number of Transformer Layers
-
-Match model capacity to your dataset size:
-
- **Small datasets** (< 100 examples): Reduce to 4 layers
- **Large datasets** (> 5k examples): Increase to 8 layers
-
-#### 3. `horizon` Tuning
-
-The model can be sensitive to the horizon you choose. Start with around a 1 second horizon based on your control frequency:
-
- **30 Hz frequency**: `horizon=30`
- **10 Hz frequency**: `horizon=10`
-
-Then experiment with increasing from there. The horizon determines how far into the future the model predicts actions.
-
-#### 4. `n_action_steps` Sensitivity
-
-The model can also be very sensitive to `n_action_steps`. Start with it being around 0.8 seconds based on your control frequency and tune from there:
-
- **Lower values**: More reactive but potentially less stable for long-horizon tasks
- **Higher values**: Better for long-horizon execution but open-loop failures are limited in their recovery
-
-### Inference Tuning
-
-For faster inference, use DDIM with fewer sampling steps:
-
-```bash
--policy.noise_scheduler_type=DDIM \
--policy.num_inference_steps=10
-```
-
-### Resuming Training
-
-To resume training from a checkpoint:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --config_path=./outputs/mutitask_dit_training/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model/train_config.json \
-  --resume=true
-```
-
-The checkpoint directory should contain `model.safetensors` and `config.json` files (saved automatically during training). When resuming, the configuration is loaded from the checkpoint, so you don't need to specify other parameters.
-
-## Common Failure Modes and Debugging
-
-Training these models can be finicky. Here are common failure modes and debugging approaches:
-
-### Idling / No Motion
-
-The model may "collapse" during inference, resulting in static or no motion. This can occur when:
-
-1. **Insufficient training data**: If you only have 20-50 examples, try to roughly double your dataset size. Once you have above 300 examples, if you're still seeing this, the task may be too complex.
-
-2. **Multiple similar tasks**: When your dataset contains multiple similar tasks (e.g., picking up 2 different objects), the model may rely too heavily on language conditioning which might not be rich enough.
-
-**Debugging tips:**
-
- Increase dataset size (double until you get to over 300 examples)
- Train for longer, up to 100k steps, even when the loss flatlines
- Check if the model is receiving proper language instructions or increase diversity of instruction
-
-### Executing the Wrong Task
-
-Sometimes the robot will completely ignore your instruction and perform some other task. This generally only happens if you have trained on multiple tasks.
-
-**Potential causes:**
-
- Language instruction ambiguity
- Insufficient task-specific training data
- Model confusion between similar tasks in the multitask dataset
-
-**Debugging tips:**
-
- Verify language instruction specificity, especially if descriptions are similar between multiple tasks
- Check task distribution in your training dataset and add weighting to the failing/ignored task
- Consider task-specific fine-tuning
-
-### Training Instability
-
-If training loss is unstable or diverging:
-
- Try adjusting learning rate between `1e-5` and `3e-4`
- Increase batch size if possible
- Check that your dataset normalization is correct
- Verify image preprocessing is working correctly
-
-## Performance Considerations
-
-### GPU Requirements
-
- **Inference**: At least an RTX 5070 Ti (or equivalent GPU) is recommended for reasonable speed performance
- **Training**: A GPU with enough VRAM to load batch sizes of >64 is ideal, which will vary depending on the number of image observations, etc
-
-### Batch Size Recommendations
-
- **Minimum**: 64 (less than this may result in unstable training)
- **Recommended**: 256-320 (best performance, requires larger GPU)
-
-## Example: Training on Custom Dataset
-
-Here's a complete example training on a custom dataset:

-## Order and Assemble the parts
-
-First, assemble the OMX hardware following the official assembly guide.
-
-OMX Assembly Guide: https://ai.robotis.com/omx/assembly_guide_omx.html
-
-OMX robots are shipped preconfigured from the factory. Motor IDs, communication parameters, and joint offsets are already set, so no additional motor setup or calibration is required before using LeRobot.
-
-## Install LeRobot 🤗
-
-To install LeRobot, follow our [Installation Guide](./installation)
-
-In addition to these instructions, you need to install the Dynamixel SDK:
-
-```bash
-pip install -e ".[dynamixel]"
-```
-
-## Connect the robot
-
-To find the port for each bus servo adapter, run this script:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-find-port
-```
-
-This command runs and when prompted, disconnect the USB cable from either the leader or follower arm and press Enter. The output will show 'The port of this MotorsBus is [port]'. This identifies the port for the disconnected arm. Repeat for the other arm to identify both ports.
-
-<hfoptions id="find_port">
-<hfoption id="Mac">
-
-Example output on macOS:
-
-```
-Finding all available ports for the MotorBus.
-['/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081', '/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0031751']
-Remove the USB cable from your MotorsBus and press Enter when done.
-
-[...Disconnect corresponding leader or follower arm and press Enter...]
-
-The port of this MotorsBus is /dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081
-Reconnect the USB cable.
-```
-
-Where the found port is: `/dev/tty.usbmodem575E0032081` corresponding to your leader or follower arm.
-
-</hfoption>
-<hfoption id="Linux">
-
-On Linux, we strongly recommend using udev rules to assign persistent and human-readable device names to the OMX leader and follower arms. This avoids issues where device names such as ttyACM0 and ttyACM1 change when the robot is unplugged, replugged, or when the system is rebooted.
-
-#### 1. Find your device serial numbers
-
-You should have obtained the port numbers like ../../ttyACM? for the leader and follower using `lerobot-find-port`. You can match those results with the serial numbers using the `ls -l /dev/serial/by-id/` command.
-To create udev rules, you need the unique serial number for each OMX device. The easiest way is to list devices under:
-
-```bash
-ls -l /dev/serial/by-id/
-```
-
-You will see output similar to:
-
-```bash
-usb-ROBOTIS_OpenRB-150_228BDD7B503059384C2E3120FF0A2B19-if00 -> ../../ttyACM0
-usb-ROBOTIS_OpenRB-150_67E1ED68503059384C2E3120FF092234-if00 -> ../../ttyACM1
-```
-
-In each line, the serial number is the long string after `usb-ROBOTIS_OpenRB-150_` and before `-if00`.
-
-Follower serial: `228BDD7B503059384C2E3120FF0A2B19`
-
-Leader serial: `67E1ED68503059384C2E3120FF092234`
-
-#### 2. Create the udev rule
-
-Create a new udev rule file:
-
-```bash
-sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/99-omx.rules
-```
-
-Paste the following lines, replacing the serial numbers with the values you found above:
-
-```bash
-SUBSYSTEM=="tty", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0403", ATTRS{serial}=="228BDD7B503059384C2E3120FF0A2B19", SYMLINK+="omx_follower"
-SUBSYSTEM=="tty", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0403", ATTRS{serial}=="67E1ED68503059384C2E3120FF092234", SYMLINK+="omx_leader"
-```
-
-Save the file and reload udev rules:
-
-```bash
-sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
-sudo udevadm trigger
-```
-
-Now unplug and replug both devices once.
-
-#### 3. Verify the symlinks
-
-Check that the persistent device names exist:
-
-```bash
-ls -l /dev/omx_follower /dev/omx_leader
-```
-
-You should see them pointing to ttyACM\* devices:
-
-```bash
-/dev/omx_follower -> ttyACM*
-/dev/omx_leader   -> ttyACM*
-```
-
-These names remain stable across reboots and reconnections.
-
-</hfoption>
-</hfoptions>
-
-## Teleoperate
-
-After identifying the correct ports, you can directly teleoperate the follower arm using the leader arm.
-
-<hfoptions id="teleoperate">
-<hfoption id="Mac">
-
-### Teleoperate without camera
-
-```bash
-lerobot-teleoperate \
-  --robot.type=omx_follower \
-  --robot.port=<your_follower_port> \
-  --robot.id=omx_follower_arm \
-  --teleop.type=omx_leader \
-  --teleop.port=<your_leader_port> \
-  --teleop.id=omx_leader_arm
-```
-
-During teleoperation, motions of the leader arm are mirrored in real time by the follower arm. OMX is already preconfigured, teleoperation can begin immediately without any calibration steps.
-
-### Teleoperate with camera
-
-You can also enable camera input during teleoperation by providing a camera configuration for the follower arm.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-teleoperate \
-  --robot.type=omx_follower \
-  --robot.port=<your_follower_port> \
-  --robot.id=omx_follower_arm \

-  --teleop.type=omx_leader \
-  --teleop.port=<your_leader_port> \
-  --teleop.id=omx_leader_arm \
-  --display_data=true

-# Parameter efficient fine-tuning with 🤗 PEFT
-
-[🤗 PEFT](https://github.com/huggingface/peft) (Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning) is a library for efficiently adapting
-large pretrained models such as pre-trained policies (e.g., SmolVLA, π₀, ...) to new tasks without training all
-of the model's parameters while yielding comparable performance.
-
-Install the `lerobot[peft]` optional package to enable PEFT support.
-
-To read about all the possible methods of adaption, please refer to the [🤗 PEFT docs](https://huggingface.co/docs/peft/index).
-
-## Training SmolVLA
-
-In this section we'll show you how to train a pre-trained SmolVLA policy with PEFT on the libero dataset.
-For brevity we're only training on the `libero_spatial` subset. We will use `lerobot/smolvla_base` as the model
-to parameter efficiently fine-tune:
-
-```
-lerobot-train \
- --policy.path=lerobot/smolvla_base \
- --policy.repo_id=your_hub_name/my_libero_smolvla \
- --dataset.repo_id=HuggingFaceVLA/libero \
- --policy.output_features=null \
- --policy.input_features=null \
- --policy.optimizer_lr=1e-3 \
- --policy.scheduler_decay_lr=1e-4 \
- --env.type=libero \
- --env.task=libero_spatial \
- --steps=100000 \
- --batch_size=32 \
- --peft.method_type=LORA \
- --peft.r=64
-```
-
-Note the `--peft.method_type` parameter that let's you select which PEFT method to use. Here we use
-[LoRA](https://huggingface.co/docs/peft/main/en/package_reference/lora) (Low-Rank Adapter) which is probably the most
-popular fine-tuning method to date. Low-rank adaption means that we only fine-tune a matrix with comparably low rank
-instead of the full weight matrix. This rank can be specified using the `--peft.r` parameter. The higher the rank
-the closer you get to full fine-tuning
-
-There are more complex methods that have more parameters. These are not yet supported, feel free to raise an issue
-if you want to see a specific PEFT method supported.
-
-By default, PEFT will target the `q_proj` and `v_proj` layers of the LM expert in SmolVLA. It will also target the
-state and action projection matrices as they are most likely task-dependent. If you need to target different layers
-you can use `--peft.target_modules` to specify which layers to target. You can refer to the respective PEFT method's
-documentation to see what inputs are supported, (e.g., [LoRA's target_modules documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/peft/main/en/package_reference/lora#peft.LoraConfig.target_modules)).
-Usually a list of suffixes or a regex are supported. For example, to target the MLPs of the `lm_expert` instead of
-the `q` and `v` projections, use:
-
-```
--peft.target_modules='(model\.vlm_with_expert\.lm_expert\..*\.(down|gate|up)_proj|.*\.(state_proj|action_in_proj|action_out_proj|action_time_mlp_in|action_time_mlp_out))'
-```
-
-In case you need to fully fine-tune a layer instead of just adapting it, you can supply a list of layer suffixes
-to the `--peft.full_training_modules` parameter:
-
-```
--peft.full_training_modules=["state_proj"]
-```
-
-The learning rate and the scheduled target learning rate can usually be scaled by a factor of 10 compared to the
-learning rate used for full fine-tuning (e.g., 1e-4 normal, so 1e-3 using LoRA).

 ### The Vision for Physical Intelligence

 As described by Physical Intelligence, while AI has achieved remarkable success in digital domains, from chess-playing to drug discovery, human intelligence still dramatically outpaces AI in the physical world. To paraphrase Moravec's paradox, winning a game of chess represents an "easy" problem for AI, but folding a shirt or cleaning up a table requires solving some of the most difficult engineering problems ever conceived. π₀ represents a first step toward developing artificial physical intelligence that enables users to simply ask robots to perform any task they want, just like they can with large language models.

-

-
-dataset = LeRobotDataset("your_dataset")
-recompute_stats(dataset, relative_action=True, chunk_size=50, relative_exclude_joints=["gripper"])
-dataset.push_to_hub()
-```
-
-The `chunk_size` should match your policy's `chunk_size` (default 50 for π₀). `relative_exclude_joints` lists joint names that should remain in absolute space (e.g. gripper commands). Use `--push_to_hub true` to upload the updated stats to the Hub.

-# π₀-FAST (Pi0-FAST)
-
-π₀-FAST is a **Vision-Language-Action model for general robot control** that uses autoregressive next-token prediction to model continuous robot actions.
-
-## Model Overview
-
-π₀-FAST combines the power of Vision-Language Models with a novel action tokenization approach called **FAST (Frequency-space Action Sequence Tokenization)**. This enables training autoregressive VLAs on highly dexterous tasks that are impossible with standard binning-based discretization, while training **up to 5x faster** than diffusion-based approaches like π₀.

-/>
-
-### Why FAST?
-
-Standard approaches for robot action tokenization use simple per-dimension, per-timestep binning schemes. While passable for simple behaviors, this rapidly breaks down for complex and dexterous skills that require precision and high-frequency control.
-
-FAST solves this by compressing action sequences using signal processing techniques, resulting in a dense sequence of action tokens that can be predicted autoregressively—just like language tokens.
-
-### How FAST Tokenization Works
-
-The FAST tokenizer compresses action sequences through the following steps:
-
-1. **Normalize**: Take a continuous action chunk of shape `(H, D)` where `H` is the horizon and `D` is the action dimension. Normalize using one of the supported normalization methods (Quantiles recommended to handle outliers).
-
-2. **Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT)**: Apply DCT (via scipy) to each action dimension separately. DCT is a compression algorithm commonly used in image and audio codecs (JPEG, MP3).
-
-3. **Quantization**: Round and remove insignificant coefficients for each action dimension, producing a sparse frequency matrix.
-
-4. **Flatten**: Flatten the matrix into a 1D vector, with low-frequency components first.
-
-5. **Byte Pair Encoding (BPE)**: Train a BPE tokenizer to compress the DCT coefficients into dense action tokens, typically achieving **10x compression** over prior tokenization approaches.
-
-This approach can transform **any existing VLM** into a VLA by training it to predict these FAST tokens.
-
-## Installation Requirements
-
-1. Install LeRobot by following our [Installation Guide](./installation).
-2. Install π₀-FAST dependencies by running:
-
-   ```bash
-   pip install -e ".[pi]"
-   ```
-
-## Training a Custom FAST Tokenizer
-
-You have two options for the FAST tokenizer:
-
-1. **Use the pre-trained tokenizer**: The `lerobot/fast-action-tokenizer` tokenizer was trained on 1M+ real robot action sequences and works as a general-purpose tokenizer.
-
-2. **Train your own tokenizer**: For maximum performance on your specific dataset, you can finetune the tokenizer on your own data.
-
-### Training Your Own Tokenizer
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train-tokenizer \
-    --repo_id "user/my-lerobot-dataset" \
-    --action_horizon 10 \
-    --encoded_dims "0:6" \
-    --vocab_size 1024 \

-## Inference
-
-### KV-Caching for Fast Inference
-
-π₀-FAST supports **KV-caching**, a widely used optimization in LLM inference. This caches the key-value pairs from the attention mechanism, avoiding redundant computation during autoregressive decoding.
-
-```python
-# KV-caching is enabled by default
-policy.use_kv_cache=true
-```
-
-### Inference Example
-
-```python
-from lerobot.policies.pi0_fast import PI0FastPolicy, PI0FastConfig
-
-# Load the policy
-policy = PI0FastPolicy.from_pretrained("your-model-path")
-
-# During inference
-actions = policy.predict_action_chunk(batch)
-```
-
-## Model Architecture
-
-π₀-FAST uses a PaliGemma-based architecture:
-
- **Vision Encoder**: SigLIP vision tower for image understanding
- **Language Model**: Gemma 2B for processing language instructions and predicting action tokens
-
-The model takes images, text instructions, and robot state as input, and outputs discrete FAST tokens that are decoded back to continuous actions.
-

-## Reproducing π₀Fast results
-
-We reproduce the results of π₀Fast on the LIBERO benchmark using the LeRobot implementation. We take the LeRobot PiFast base model [lerobot/pi0fast-base](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/pi0fast-base) and finetune for an additional 40kk steps in bfloat16, with batch size of 256 on 8 H100 GPUs using the [HuggingFace LIBERO dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/HuggingFaceVLA/libero).
-
-The finetuned model can be found here:
-
- **π₀Fast LIBERO**: [lerobot/pi0fast-libero](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/pi0fast-libero)
-
-With the following training command:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/libero \
-  --output_dir=outputs/libero_pi0fast \
-  --job_name=libero_pi0fast \
-  --policy.path=lerobot/pi0fast_base \
-  --policy.dtype=bfloat16 \
-  --steps=100000 \
-  --save_freq=20000 \
-  --batch_size=4 \
-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  --policy.scheduler_warmup_steps=4000 \
-  --policy.scheduler_decay_steps=100000 \
-  --policy.scheduler_decay_lr=1e-5 \
-  --policy.gradient_checkpointing=true \
-  --policy.chunk_size=10 \
-  --policy.n_action_steps=10 \
-  --policy.max_action_tokens=256 \
-  --policy.empty_cameras=1 \
-```
-
-We then evaluate the finetuned model using the LeRobot LIBERO implementation, by running the following command:
-
-```bash
-tasks="libero_object,libero_spatial,libero_goal,libero_10"
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=lerobot/pi0fast-libero \
-  --policy.max_action_tokens=256 \
-  --env.type=libero \
-  --policy.gradient_checkpointing=false \
-  --env.task=${tasks} \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=1 \
-  --rename_map='{"observation.images.image":"observation.images.base_0_rgb","observation.images.image2":"observation.images.left_wrist_0_rgb"}'
-```
-
-**Note:** We set `n_action_steps=10`, similar to the original OpenPI implementation.
-
-### Results

-## Relative Actions
-
-π₀.₅ supports training with **relative actions**, where the model learns relative offsets
-from the current robot state instead of absolute joint positions. This mirrors the
-relative-action transform in OpenPI (`DeltaActions`) and can improve performance.
-
-### How it works
-
-1. **During preprocessing**, absolute actions are converted to relative offsets:
-   `relative = action - state` (for selected joints).
-2. The relative actions are normalized using statistics computed from the relative distribution.
-3. **During postprocessing**, predicted relative actions are converted back to absolute:
-   `absolute = relative + state`.
-
-Joints listed in `relative_exclude_joints` (e.g., gripper) are kept absolute.
-
-### Configuration
-
-| Parameter                 | Type        | Default       | Description                                                      |
-| ------------------------- | ----------- | ------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `use_relative_actions`    | `bool`      | `False`       | Enable relative-action training                                  |
-| `relative_exclude_joints` | `list[str]` | `["gripper"]` | Joint names to keep absolute (matched by substring)              |
-| `action_feature_names`    | `list[str]` | `None`        | Auto-populated from dataset metadata at runtime by `make_policy` |
-
-### Training example
-
-```bash
-python -m lerobot.scripts.lerobot_train \
-  --policy.type=pi05 \
-  --dataset.repo_id=your_org/your_dataset \
-  --policy.use_relative_actions=true \
-  --policy.relative_exclude_joints='["gripper"]'
-```
-
-When `use_relative_actions=true`, the training script automatically:
-
- Computes relative action statistics from the dataset (sampled chunk-level relative actions)
- Replaces the standard action stats with relative stats for normalization
- Broadcasts these stats across all ranks in distributed training

-
-```bash
-python -m lerobot.scripts.lerobot_train \
-  --policy.type=pi0 \
-  --dataset.repo_id=your_org/your_dataset \
-  --policy.use_relative_actions=true \
-  --policy.relative_exclude_joints='["gripper"]'
-```
-
-When `use_relative_actions=true`, the training script automatically:
-
- Computes relative action statistics from the dataset (sampled chunk-level relative actions)
- Replaces the standard action stats with relative stats for normalization
- Broadcasts these stats across all ranks in distributed training
-
-### Recomputing stats for an existing dataset
-
-If you want to precompute relative action stats offline, use `recompute_stats` from
-`lerobot.datasets.dataset_tools`:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.datasets.lerobot_dataset import LeRobotDataset
-from lerobot.datasets.dataset_tools import recompute_stats
-
-dataset = LeRobotDataset("your_org/your_dataset")
-dataset = recompute_stats(
-    dataset,
-    relative_action=True,
-    relative_exclude_joints=["gripper"],
-)
-```

-# Rename Map and Empty Cameras
-
-When you train, evaluate, or record with a robot policy, your **dataset** or **environment** provides observations under one set of keys (e.g. `observation.images.front`, `observation.images.eagle`), while your **policy** expects another (e.g. `observation.images.image`, `observation.images.image2`). The **rename map** bridges that gap without changing the policy or data source.
-
-> **Scope:** The rename map only renames **observation** keys (images and state). Action keys are not affected.
-
-## Why observation keys don't always match
-
-Policies have a fixed set of **input feature names** baked into their pretrained config. For example:
-
- [pi0fast-libero](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/pi0fast-libero) expects `observation.images.base_0_rgb` and `observation.images.left_wrist_0_rgb`.
- [xvla-base](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/xvla-base) expects `observation.images.image`, `observation.images.image2`, and `observation.images.image3`.
-
-Your dataset might use different names entirely (e.g. `observation.images.front`, `observation.images.eagle`, `observation.images.glove`), and your eval environment might use yet another set. Rather than editing the policy config or renaming columns in the dataset, you pass a **rename map**: a JSON dictionary that maps source keys to the keys the policy expects. Renaming happens inside the preprocessor pipeline, so the policy always sees its expected keys.
-
-## Using the rename map
-
-Pass the mapping as a JSON string on the command line. The convention is always:
-
-```
--rename_map='{"source_key": "policy_key", ...}'
-```
-
-where **source_key** is what the dataset or environment provides, and **policy_key** is what the policy expects.
-
-Only listed keys are renamed; everything else passes through unchanged. Order of entries doesn't matter.
-
-Supported policies: **PI0**, **PI05**, **PI0Fast**, **SmolVLA**, and **XVLA**.
-
-### Training
-
-Suppose you fine-tune [lerobot/xvla-base](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/xvla-base) on a dataset with images under `observation.images.front`, `observation.images.eagle`, and `observation.images.glove`. XVLA expects `observation.images.image`, `observation.images.image2`, and `observation.images.image3`:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --dataset.repo_id=YOUR_DATASET \
-  --output_dir=./outputs/xvla_training \
-  --job_name=xvla_training \
-  --policy.path="lerobot/xvla-base" \
-  --policy.repo_id="HF_USER/xvla-your-robot" \
-  --policy.dtype=bfloat16 \
-  --policy.action_mode=auto \
-  --steps=20000 \
-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  --policy.freeze_vision_encoder=false \
-  --policy.freeze_language_encoder=false \
-  --policy.train_policy_transformer=true \
-  --policy.train_soft_prompts=true \
-  --rename_map='{"observation.images.front": "observation.images.image", "observation.images.eagle": "observation.images.image2", "observation.images.glove": "observation.images.image3"}'
-```
-
-### Evaluation
-
-A policy that expects `observation.images.base_0_rgb` and `observation.images.left_wrist_0_rgb` (e.g. [pi0fast-libero](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/pi0fast-libero)), but the LIBERO environment returns `observation.images.image` and `observation.images.image2`:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=lerobot/pi0fast-libero \
-  --env.type=libero \
-  ... \
-  --rename_map='{"observation.images.image": "observation.images.base_0_rgb", "observation.images.image2": "observation.images.left_wrist_0_rgb"}'
-```
-
-### Recording
-
-`lerobot-record` also supports rename maps, nested under the dataset config:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-record \ # When running inference
-  --policy.path="<user>/smolVLA_finetuned" \
-  ... \
-  --dataset.rename_map='{"observation.images.glove2": "observation.images.image"}'
-```
-
-## Alternative: edit the policy config directly
-
-If you always use the same dataset or environment, you can **edit the policy's `config.json`** so its observation keys match your data source. Then no rename map is needed.
-
-The tradeoff: modifying the policy config ties it to one data source. A rename map keeps one policy usable across many datasets and environments.
-
-## Empty cameras: fewer views than the policy expects
-
-Some policies are built for a fixed number of image inputs. If your dataset has fewer cameras, you can set **`empty_cameras`** in the policy config instead of modifying the model architecture.
-
-### How it works
-
-Setting `empty_cameras=N` adds N placeholder image features to the policy config, named:
-
-```
-observation.images.empty_camera_0
-observation.images.empty_camera_1
-...
-```
-
-At runtime, these keys have no corresponding data in the batch. The policy fills them with masked dummy tensors (padded with `-1` for SigLIP-based vision encoders, with a zero attention mask), so the extra image slots are effectively ignored during training and inference.
-
-### Example
-
-XVLA-base has three visual inputs and `empty_cameras=0` by default. Your dataset only has two cameras:
-
-1. Set `--policy.empty_cameras=1`.
-2. The config adds a third key: `observation.images.empty_camera_0`.
-3. Use the rename map for your two real cameras as usual.
-4. The third slot is masked out — no fake images needed in your dataset.

-# Real-Time Chunking (RTC)
-
-Real-Time Chunking (RTC) is an inference-time method that allows large, flow-matching based robotic policies, such as [Pi0](./pi0), [Pi0.5](./pi05), and [SmolVLA](./smolvla), to produce smooth, continuous, and reactive motion despite having high inference latency.
-
-These policies generate chunks of future actions (e.g., 50 steps at a time) instead of single actions.
-Because the models are large, producing each chunk takes longer than the time it takes the robot to execute it.
-Naively executing chunks leads to problems such as pauses, jerky transitions, or sudden changes in strategy whenever the next chunk arrives late or disagrees with the previously executed actions.
-
-RTC solves this by asynchronously generating the next chunk while the robot continues executing the current one, and by guiding the new chunk so it aligns smoothly with the portion of the previous chunk that has already been executed.
-
-## How RTC Works (simplified)
-
-RTC lets the robot think ahead while it’s still moving. When the robot is carrying out one chunk of actions, RTC starts creating the next chunk early.
-But since the robot has already moved a bit by the time the new chunk is ready, RTC has to make sure the new chunk still lines up smoothly with what the robot is currently doing.
-
-To do this, RTC treats the beginning of the new chunk like an inpainting or “fill-in-the-gaps” problem:
-it gently adjusts the first part of the new chunk so it blends naturally with the robot’s ongoing motion. The result is no pauses, no sudden jumps.
-
-In technical terms, RTC adds a guidance term to the flow-matching denoising process that forces the overlapping timesteps of the new chunk to stay close to the executed portion of the previous chunk, typically using a soft transition mask.
-
-## Quick Start
-
-### Installation
-
-RTC is built into LeRobot. Just install the policy dependencies you need:
-
-```bash
-# For Pi0 or Pi0.5
-pip install -e ".[pi]"
-
-# For SmolVLA
-pip install -e ".[smolvla]"
-```
-
-### Using RTC with Pi0
-
-You can find a complete reference implementation in [eval_with_real_robot.py](examples/rtc/eval_with_real_robot.py).
-The snippet below provides a simplified pseudo-example of how RTC operates with Pi0 in your pipeline:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.policies.pi0 import PI0Policy, PI0Config
-from lerobot.configs.types import RTCAttentionSchedule
-from lerobot.policies.rtc.configuration_rtc import RTCConfig
-from lerobot.policies.rtc.action_queue import ActionQueue
-
-# Load Pi0 with RTC enabled
-policy_cfg = PI0Config()
-
-# Enable RTC
-policy_cfg.rtc_config = RTCConfig(
-    enabled=True,
-    execution_horizon=10,  # How many steps to blend with previous chunk
-    max_guidance_weight=10.0,  # How strongly to enforce consistency
-    prefix_attention_schedule=RTCAttentionSchedule.EXP,  # Exponential blend
-)
-
-# Load the policy
-policy = PI0Policy.from_pretrained("lerobot/pi0_base", policy_cfg=policy_cfg, device="cuda")
-
-# Now use predict_action_chunk with RTC parameters
-inference_delay = 4  # How many steps of inference latency, this values should be calculated based on the inference latency of the policy
-
-# Initialize the action queue
-action_queue = ActionQueue(policy_cfg.rtc_config)
-
-# Start in a separate thread with the following function
-def get_actions():
-  while True:
-    if should_get_actions:
-
-      prev_actions = action_queue.get_left_over()
-      obs = get_robot_observations(robot)
-
-      # Generate actions WITH RTC
-      actions = policy.predict_action_chunk(
-          obs,
-          inference_delay=inference_delay,
-          prev_chunk_left_over=prev_actions,
-      )
-
-      action_queue.merge(
-          actions, actions, inference_delay
-      )
-
-for step in range(num_steps):
-    action = action_queue.get()
-
-    # Execute the first N actions
-    execute_actions(action)
-```
-
-## Key Parameters
-
-`RTCConfig` has the following parameters to tune:
-
-**`execution_horizon`**: How many timesteps from the previous chunk to maintain consistency with. Higher values mean smoother transitions but potentially less reactivity.
-
-Typical values: 8-12 steps
-
-```python
-RTCConfig(execution_horizon=10)
-```
-
-**`max_guidance_weight`**: How strongly to enforce consistency with the previous chunk. This is a hyperparameter that can be tuned to balance the smoothness of the transitions and the reactivity of the policy. For 10 steps flow matching (SmolVLA, Pi0, Pi0.5), a value of 10.0 is a optimal value.
-
-**`prefix_attention_schedule`**: How to weight consistency across the overlap region.
-
- `LINEAR`: Linear decay from inference_delay to execution_horizon
- `EXP`: Exponential decay (recommended for getting started)
- `ONES`: Full weight across entire execution_horizon
- `ZEROS`: Binary (full weight up to inference_delay, then zero)
-
-**`inference_delay`**: How many timesteps of inference latency your system has. This is passed to `predict_action_chunk()` rather than the config, since it may vary at runtime.
-
-## Testing RTC Offline
-
-Before running on a real robot, test RTC with dataset samples to visualize how it works:
-
-```bash
-python examples/rtc/eval_dataset.py \
-    --policy.path=lerobot/pi0_libero_finetuned \
-    --dataset.repo_id=HuggingFaceVLA/libero \
-    --rtc.execution_horizon=10 \
-    --rtc.max_guidance_weight=10.0 \
-    --device=cuda
-```
-
-The script generates a visualization of the denoising process, comparing standard generation (left) with RTC (right). In the RTC plots, you can see how the first few steps (blue/purple lines) are guided to match the red ground truth trajectory (previous chunk's tail), ensuring a smooth transition between chunks.

-  />
-</p>
-
-## Testing RTC with a Real Robot
-
-```bash
-python examples/rtc/eval_with_real_robot.py \
-    --policy.path=${HF_USERNAME}/policy_repo_id \
-    --robot.type=so100_follower \
-    --robot.port=/dev/tty.usbmodem58FA0834591 \
-    --robot.cameras="{ gripper: {type: opencv, index_or_path: 1, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}, front: {type: opencv, index_or_path: 0, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}" \
-    --task="Move green small object into the purple platform" \
-    --duration=120 \
-    --device=cuda
-```
-
-## How It Differs from the Async Inference in LeRobot
-
-Both RTC and [async inference](./async) improve real-time robot control, but they solve different problems.
-
-| Aspect        | Async Inference                                                            | RTC                                                 |
-| ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
-| **Problem**   | Idle frames while waiting for inference                                    | Discontinuities between action chunks               |
-| **Solution**  | Decouple prediction from execution                                         | Guide new chunks to continue smoothly from previous |
-| **Benefit**   | No waiting, continuous action                                              | Smooth transitions, natural motion                  |
-| **Best Used** | Async inference is best used with large models with high inference latency | Flow-matching based policies                        |
-
-**Use both together** for maximum smoothness and reactivity!
-
-## Advanced: Debug Tracking
-
-RTC includes built-in debug tracking to help you understand what's happening during inference:
-
-```python
-# Enable debug tracking
-policy_cfg.rtc_config.debug = True
-policy_cfg.rtc_config.debug_maxlen = 100
-
-# After inference, access debug data
-debug_data = policy.rtc_processor.get_debug_data()
-
-# Visualize denoising steps, corrections, etc.
-from lerobot.policies.rtc.debug_visualizer import RTCDebugVisualizer
-visualizer = RTCDebugVisualizer()
-# ... create plots
-```
-
-See `examples/rtc/eval_dataset.py` for a complete example of visualization.

-# SARM: Stage-Aware Reward Modeling
-
-SARM (Stage-Aware Reward Modeling) is a video-based reward modeling framework for long-horizon robot manipulation tasks. This guide covers how to train SARM reward models and optionally use them with Reward-Aligned Behavior Cloning (RA-BC).

-
-## Why Reward Models?
-
-Standard behavior cloning treats all demonstration frames equally, but real-world robot datasets are messy. They contain hesitations, corrections, and variable-quality trajectories. Reward models solve this by learning a generalizable notion of **task progress** from demonstrations: given video frames and a task description, they predict how close the robot is to completing the task (0→1). This learned "progress signal" can be used in multiple ways, two promising applications are: (1) **weighted imitation learning** (RA-BC), where high-progress frames receive more weight during policy training, and (2) **reinforcement learning**, where the reward model provides dense rewards for online or offline policy improvement.
-
-## Overview
-
-SARM has following features:
-
-1. **Stage-aware architecture**: Jointly predicts the high-level task stage and fine-grained progress within each stage
-2. **Subtask annotations**: Uses natural language subtask annotations to derive consistent progress labels
-3. **Temporal proportions**: Computes dataset-level priors (α̅\_k) for each subtask to normalize progress across variable-length demonstrations
-
-SARM trains on a compact **stage+tau** target for each frame:
-
- **stage**: integer stage index `k ∈ {0, ..., K-1}`
- **τ (tau)**: within-stage progress `τ ∈ [0, 1]`
- **target encoding**: `y = k + τ` (this is what the dataset processor produces)
-
-At inference time (and in downstream RA-BC), SARM converts the raw `k + τ` value into a **normalized progress** in `[0, 1]` using dataset-level **temporal proportions** `α̅_k` (stored in `meta/temporal_proportions_*.json`).
-
-This matches **Formula (2)** from the paper:
-
-```
-progress_t = P_{k-1} + α̅_k × τ_t
-```
-
-Where:
-
- `τ_t = (t - s_k) / (e_k - s_k)` is within-subtask normalized time
- `P_{k-1}` is cumulative prior (sum of previous subtask proportions)
- `α̅_k` is the temporal proportion for subtask k
-
-This ensures identical task states map to consistent progress values, even across demonstrations of different lengths.
-
-## Inputs and Targets (What the new code expects)
-
-SARM is trained through its processor (`src/lerobot/policies/sarm/processor_sarm.py`), which:
-
- **Encodes** images and task text with CLIP (ViT-B/32) into `video_features` and `text_features`
- **Pads/truncates** robot state into `state_features` (up to `max_state_dim`)
- **Builds targets** as `sparse_targets` (and `dense_targets` in `dense_only`/`dual`) using the stage+tau encoding `y = k + τ`
- **Masks rewind frames** using a per-sample `lengths` tensor (rewind is a training-time augmentation)
-
-At minimum, each training sample needs:
-
- `task` (string): task description
- `policy.image_key` images and `policy.state_key` states from the dataset
-

-
-## Annotation Modes
-
-You can choose from **3 annotation modes** that determine how progress labels are computed:
-
-| Mode           | Annotations Required | Heads                        | Use Case                                                     |
-| -------------- | -------------------- | ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| `single_stage` | None                 | Sparse only                  | Simple tasks, quick experiments, no VLM needed               |
-| `dense_only`   | Dense (VLM)          | Dual (sparse auto-generated) | Detailed subtask tracking without defining high-level stages |
-| `dual`         | Sparse + Dense (VLM) | Dual                         | Full SARM paper setup with both granularities                |
-
-### Mode Details
-
-<hfoptions id="mode_explanation">
-<hfoption id="single_stage">
-
-**No annotations required.** The entire episode is treated as a single stage called `"task"`, and progress is linear from 0 to 1 over the episode duration.
-
- **Sparse head**: 1 stage ("task"), linear progress
- **Dense head**: Not used
- **Best for**: Simple tasks, quick experiments, or when VLM annotation is not available
-
-## Set Up Your Environment
-
-1. Install LeRobot by following our [Installation Guide](./installation).
-2. Install SARM dependencies by running:
-
-```bash
-pip install -e ".[sarm]"
-```
-
-Workflow:
-
-```
-1. Train SARM → 2. Visualize predictions → 3. (Optional) Train policy with RA-BC
-```
-
-</hfoption>
-<hfoption id="dense_only">
-
-**Only dense (fine-grained) annotations from a VLM.** The sparse head automatically uses a single `"task"` stage covering the full episode, while the dense head learns detailed subtask progression.
-
- **Sparse head**: 1 stage ("task"), linear progress (auto-generated)
- **Dense head**: Multiple fine-grained stages from VLM annotations
- **Best for**: When you want detailed subtask tracking but don't need to define high-level stages
-
-Workflow:
-
-```
-1. Annotate (dense) → 2. Verify → 3. Train SARM → 4. Visualize → 5. (Optional) Train policy with RA-BC
-```
-
-</hfoption>
-<hfoption id="dual">
-
-**Both sparse and dense annotations from VLM.** Full dual-head mode as described in the SARM paper, with both high-level (sparse) and fine-grained (dense) stage predictions.
-
- **Sparse head**: High-level stages from VLM annotations
- **Dense head**: Fine-grained stages from VLM annotations
- **Best for**: Complex multi-stage tasks where both granularities are useful
-
-Workflow:
-
-```
-1. Annotate (sparse+dense) → 2. Verify → 3. Train SARM → 4. Visualize → 5. (Optional) Train policy with RA-BC

-
-## Step 5 (Optional): Train Policy with RA-BC
-
-Reward-Aligned Behavior Cloning (RA-BC) uses the trained SARM model to weight training samples based on predicted progress improvement. This requires two steps:
-
-1. **Precompute progress values** for all frames using the trained SARM model
-2. **Train policy** with RA-BC weighting using the precomputed values
-
-### How RA-BC Works
-
-For each training sample, RA-BC computes the progress delta:
-
-```
-r_i = φ(o_{t+Δ}) - φ(o_t)
-```
-
-Where `φ` is the SARM progress prediction and `Δ` is the policy's `chunk_size`. Samples with positive progress (good demonstrations) get higher weights, while samples with negative or zero progress get down-weighted.
-
-The weighting follows **Equations 8-9** from the paper:
-
- **Soft weight**: `w̃_i = clip((r_i − (μ − 2σ)) / (4σ + ε), 0, 1)`
- **Final weight**: `w_i = 𝟙{r_i > κ} + 𝟙{0 ≤ r_i ≤ κ} × w̃_i`
-
-### Step 5a: Compute SARM Progress Values
-
-First, run the SARM model on all frames in your dataset to compute progress values:
-
-```bash
-python src/lerobot/policies/sarm/compute_rabc_weights.py \
-  --dataset-repo-id your-username/your-dataset \
-  --reward-model-path your-username/sarm-model \
-  --head-mode sparse \
-  --num-visualizations 5 \
-  --push-to-hub
-```
-
-This script:
-
- Processes all frames and computes progress values
- Saves progress values to a parquet file next to the dataset on disk (defaults to `<dataset_root>/sarm_progress.parquet`)
- Generates visualizations of the first N episodes (default: 5)
-
-**Arguments:**
-
-| Argument               | Description                                                    | Default    |
-| ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------- |
-| `--reward-model-path`  | Path to trained SARM model                                     | (required) |
-| `--head-mode`          | SARM head to use: `sparse`, `dense`, or `both`                 | `sparse`   |
-| `--device`             | Device for inference                                           | `cuda`     |
-| `--visualize-only`     | Only visualize predictions (no RA-BC computation)              | `false`    |
-| `--num-visualizations` | Number of episodes to visualize (default: 5, set to 0 to skip) | `5`        |
-
-**Output format** (`sarm_progress.parquet`):
-
-| Column            | Description                                    |
-| ----------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
-| `index`           | Global frame index in dataset                  |
-| `episode_index`   | Episode number                                 |
-| `frame_index`     | Local frame index within episode               |
-| `progress_sparse` | Sparse head progress value [0, 1]              |
-| `progress_dense`  | Dense head progress value [0, 1] (if computed) |
-
-### Step 5b: Train Policy with RA-BC
-
-Once you have the progress file, train your policy with RA-BC weighting. The progress file is auto-detected from the dataset path (`sarm_progress.parquet`). Currently PI0, PI0.5 and SmolVLA are supported with RA-BC:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --dataset.repo_id=your-username/your-dataset \
-  --policy.type=pi0 \
-  --use_rabc=true \
-  --rabc_head_mode=sparse \
-  --rabc_kappa=0.01 \
-  --output_dir=outputs/train/policy_rabc \
-  --batch_size=32 \
-  --steps=40000
-```
-
-The training script automatically:
-
- Loads the precomputed progress values from the parquet file
- Uses the policy's `chunk_size` to compute progress deltas (Δ)
- Computes sample weights based on progress improvement
- Applies weighted loss during training
-
-**RA-BC Arguments:**
-
-| Argument               | Description                                                | Default                            |
-| ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
-| `--use_rabc`           | Enable RA-BC sample weighting                              | `false`                            |
-| `--rabc_progress_path` | Path to progress parquet file (auto-detected from dataset) | `sarm_progress.parquet` in dataset |
-| `--rabc_head_mode`     | Which SARM head's progress to use: `sparse` or `dense`     | `sparse`                           |
-| `--rabc_kappa`         | Threshold κ for high-quality samples                       | `0.01`                             |
-
-### Tuning RA-BC Kappa
-
-The `kappa` parameter is the threshold that determines which samples get full weight (w=1). Understanding how to tune it is critical for RA-BC to work effectively.
-
-**How the weighting works:**
-
-| Condition           | Weight                  |
-| ------------------- | ----------------------- |
-| `delta > kappa`     | 1.0 (hard threshold)    |
-| `0 ≤ delta ≤ kappa` | Soft weight from Eq. 8  |
-| `delta < 0`         | 0.0 (negative progress) |
-
-**Diagnosing kappa issues:**
-
-Monitor these WandB metrics during training:
-
-| Metric             | Healthy Range | Problem Indicator         |
-| ------------------ | ------------- | ------------------------- |
-| `rabc_mean_weight` | 0.3 - 0.8     | ≈ 1.0 means kappa too low |
-| `rabc_delta_mean`  | > 0           | Should be positive        |
-| `rabc_delta_std`   | > 0           | Variance in data quality  |
-
-**If `rabc_mean_weight ≈ 1.0`:** Your kappa is too low. Most samples have `delta > kappa` and bypass the soft-weighting entirely. RA-BC becomes equivalent to vanilla BC.
-
-**Setting kappa based on your data:**
-
-The default `kappa=0.01` was tuned for the paper's T-shirt folding task (~90s episodes at 30fps). For your dataset, check the logged `rabc_delta_mean` and `rabc_delta_std`:
-
-```
-# If delta_mean ≈ 0.03 and delta_std ≈ 0.02:
-# Most deltas fall in range [0.01, 0.05]
-
-# Option 1: Set kappa = delta_mean (medium selectivity)
--rabc_kappa=0.03
-
-# Option 2: Set kappa = delta_mean + delta_std (high selectivity)
--rabc_kappa=0.05
-
-# Option 3: Set kappa = delta_mean + 2*delta_std (very selective)
--rabc_kappa=0.07
-```
-
-**When RA-BC may not help:**
-
-If your dataset is already high quality (consistent progress across all demonstrations), RA-BC won't provide much benefit since there's nothing to filter.
-
-### Multi-GPU Training with RA-BC
-
-```bash
-accelerate launch \
-  --multi_gpu \
-  --num_processes=4 \
-  src/lerobot/scripts/lerobot_train.py \
-  --dataset.repo_id=your-username/your-dataset \
-  --policy.type=pi0 \
-  --use_rabc=true \
-  --rabc_kappa=0.01 \
-  --output_dir=outputs/train/policy_rabc \
-  --batch_size=32 \
-  --steps=40000
-```
-

-
-## Tips & Best Practices
-
-### Choosing a Mode
-
- **Start with `single_stage`** for quick experiments - no annotation overhead
- Use **`dense_only`** when you want detailed progress tracking but tasks don't have clear high-level stages
- Use **`dual`** for complex tasks where both coarse and fine-grained progress is meaningful
-
-### Annotation Quality
-
-1. **Be specific with subtask names**: Instead of "fold", use "grab near side and fold toward center"
-2. **Verify with visualization**: Always check a few episodes before training
-3. **Consistent naming**: Use the same subtask names across all episodes
-
-### RA-BC
-
-1. **Train SARM first**: RA-BC quality depends entirely on SARM quality
-2. **Monitor `rabc_mean_weight`**: If it's ≈ 1.0, increase kappa (see [Tuning RA-BC Kappa](#tuning-ra-bc-kappa))

-# Streaming Video Encoding Guide
-
-## 1. Overview
-
-Streaming video encoding eliminates the traditional PNG round-trip during video dataset recording. Instead of:
-
-1. Capture frame -> write PNG to disk -> (at episode end) read PNG's -> encode to MP4 -> delete PNG's
-
-Frames can be encoded in real-time during capture:
-
-1. Capture frame -> queue to encoder thread -> encode to MP4 directly
-
-This makes `save_episode()` near-instant (the video is already encoded by the time the episode ends) and removes the blocking wait that previously occurred between episodes, especially with multiple cameras in long episodes.

-
-| Parameter               | CLI Flag                          | Type          | Default       | Description                                                       |
-| ----------------------- | --------------------------------- | ------------- | ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `streaming_encoding`    | `--dataset.streaming_encoding`    | `bool`        | `True`        | Enable real-time encoding during capture                          |
-| `vcodec`                | `--dataset.vcodec`                | `str`         | `"libsvtav1"` | Video codec. `"auto"` detects best HW encoder                     |
-| `encoder_threads`       | `--dataset.encoder_threads`       | `int \| None` | `None` (auto) | Threads per encoder instance. `None` will leave the vcoded decide |
-| `encoder_queue_maxsize` | `--dataset.encoder_queue_maxsize` | `int`         | `60`          | Max buffered frames per camera (~2s at 30fps). Consumes RAM       |
-
-## 3. Performance Considerations
-
-Streaming encoding means the CPU is encoding video **during** the capture loop, not after. This creates a CPU budget that must be shared between:
-
- **Control loop** (reading cameras, control the robot, writing non-video data)
- **Encoder threads** (one pool per camera)
- **Rerun visualization** (if enabled)
- **OS and other processes**
-
-### Resolution & Number of Cameras Impact
-
-| Setup                     | Throughput (px/sec) | CPU Encoding Load | Notes                          |
-| ------------------------- | ------------------- | ----------------- | ------------------------------ |
-| 2camsx 640x480x3 @30fps   | 55M                 | Low               | Works on most systems          |
-| 2camsx 1280x720x3 @30fps  | 165M                | Moderate          | Comfortable on modern systems  |
-| 2camsx 1920x1080x3 @30fps | 373M                | High              | Requires powerful high-end CPU |
-
-### `encoder_threads` Tuning
-
-This parameter controls how many threads each encoder instance uses internally:
-
- **Higher values** (e.g., 4-5): Faster encoding, but uses more CPU cores per camera. Good for high-end systems with many cores.
- **Lower values** (e.g., 1-2): Less CPU per camera, freeing cores for capture and visualization. Good for low-res images and capable CPUs.
- **`None` (default)**: Lets the codec decide. Information available in the codec logs.
-
-### Backpressure and Frame Dropping
-
-Each camera has a bounded queue (`encoder_queue_maxsize`, default 60 frames). When the encoder can't keep up:
-
-1. The queue fills up (consuming RAM)
-2. New frames are **dropped** (not blocked) — the capture loop continues uninterrupted
-3. A warning is logged: `"Encoder queue full for {camera}, dropped N frame(s)"`
-4. At episode end, total dropped frames per camera are reported
-
-### Symptoms of Encoder Falling Behind
-
- **System feels laggy and freezes**: all CPUs are at 100%
- **Dropped frame warnings** in the log or lower frames/FPS than expected in the recorded dataset
- **Choppy robot movement**: If CPU is severely overloaded, even the capture loop may be affected
- **Accumulated rerun lag**: Visualization falls behind real-time
-
-## 4. Hardware-Accelerated Encoding
-
-### When to Use
-
-Use HW encoding when:
-
- CPU is the bottleneck (dropped frames, choppy robot, rerun lag)
- You have compatible hardware (GPU or dedicated encoder)
- You're recording at high throughput (high resolution or with many cameras)
-
-### Choosing a Codec
-
-| Codec                 | CPU Usage | File Size      | Quality | Notes                                                            |
-| --------------------- | --------- | -------------- | ------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `libsvtav1` (default) | High      | Smallest       | Best    | Default. Best compression but most CPU-intensive                 |
-| `h264`                | Medium    | ~30-50% larger | Good    | Software H.264. Lower CPU                                        |
-| HW encoders           | Very Low  | Largest        | Good    | Offloads to dedicated hardware. Best for CPU-constrained systems |
-
-### Available HW Encoders
-
-| Encoder             | Platform      | Hardware                                                                                         | CLI Value                            |
-| ------------------- | ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------ |
-| `h264_videotoolbox` | macOS         | Apple Silicon / Intel                                                                            | `--dataset.vcodec=h264_videotoolbox` |
-| `hevc_videotoolbox` | macOS         | Apple Silicon / Intel                                                                            | `--dataset.vcodec=hevc_videotoolbox` |

-| `h264_qsv`          | Linux/Windows | Intel Quick Sync                                                                                 | `--dataset.vcodec=h264_qsv`          |
-| `auto`              | Any           | Probes the system for available HW encoders. Falls back to `libsvtav1` if no HW encoder is found | `--dataset.vcodec=auto`              |
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> In order to use the HW accelerated encoders you might need to upgrade your GPU drivers.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> `libsvtav1` is the default because it provides the best training performance; other vcodecs can reduce CPU usage and be faster, but they typically produce larger files and may affect training time.

-| Symptom                                                            | Likely Cause                                 | Fix                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  |
-| ------------------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| System freezes or choppy robot movement or Rerun visualization lag | CPU starved (100% load usage)                | Close other apps, reduce encoding throughput, lower `encoder_threads`, use `h264`, use `display_data=False`. If the CPU continues to be at 100% then it might be insufficient for your setup, consider `--dataset.streaming_encoding=false` or HW encoding (`--dataset.vcodec=auto`) |
-| "Encoder queue full" warnings or dropped frames in dataset         | Encoder can't keep up (Queue overflow)       | If CPU is not at 100%: Increase `encoder_threads`, increase `encoder_queue_maxsize` or use HW encoding (`--dataset.vcodec=auto`).                                                                                                                                                    |
-| High RAM usage                                                     | Queue filling faster than encoding           | `encoder_threads` too low or CPU insufficient. Reduce `encoder_queue_maxsize` or use HW encoding                                                                                                                                                                                     |
-| Large video files                                                  | Using HW encoder or H.264                    | Expected trade-off. Switch to `libsvtav1` if CPU allows                                                                                                                                                                                                                              |
-| `save_episode()` still slow                                        | `streaming_encoding` is `False`              | Set `--dataset.streaming_encoding=true`                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              |
-| Encoder thread crash                                               | Codec not available or invalid settings      | Check `vcodec` is installed, try `--dataset.vcodec=auto`                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |
-| Recorded dataset is missing frames                                 | CPU/GPU starvation or occasional load spikes | If ~5% of frames are missing, your system is likely overloaded — follow the recommendations above. If fewer frames are missing (~2%), they are probably due to occasional transient load spikes (often at startup) and can be considered expected.                                   |
-
-## 6. Recommended Configurations
-
-These estimates are conservative; we recommend testing them on your setup—start with a low load and increase it gradually.
-
-### High-End Systems: modern 12+ cores (24+ threads)
-
-A throughput between ~250-500M px/sec should be comfortable in CPU. For even better results try HW encoding if available.
-
-```bash
-# 3camsx 1280x720x3 @30fps: Defaults work well. Optionally increase encoder parallelism.
-# 2camsx 1920x1080x3 @30fps: Defaults work well. Optionally increase encoder parallelism.
-lerobot-record --dataset.encoder_threads=5 ...
-
-# 3camsx 1920x1080x3 @30fps: Might require some tuning.
-```
-
-### Mid-Range Systems: modern 8+ cores (16+ threads) or Apple Silicon
-
-A throughput between ~80-300M px/sec should be possible in CPU.
-
-```bash
-# 3camsx 640x480x3 @30fps: Defaults work well. Optionally decrease encoder parallelism.
-# 2camsx 1280x720x3 @30fps: Defaults work well. Optionally decrease encoder parallelism.
-lerobot-record --dataset.encoder_threads=2 ...
-
-# 2camsx 1920x1080x3 @30fps: Might require some tuning.
-```
-
-### Low-Resource Systems: modern 4+ cores (8+ threads) or Raspberry Pi 5
-
-On very constrained systems, streaming encoding may compete too heavily with the capture loop. Disabling it falls back to the PNG-based approach where encoding happens between episodes (blocking, but doesn't interfere with capture). Alternatively, record at a lower throughput to reduce both capture and encoding load. Consider also changing codec to `h264` and using batch encoding.
-
-```bash
-# 2camsx 640x480x3 @30fps: Requires some tuning.
-
-# Use H.264, disable streaming, consider batching encoding
-lerobot-record --dataset.vcodec=h264 --dataset.streaming_encoding=false ...
-```
-
-## 7. Closing note
-
-Performance ultimately depends on your exact setup — frames-per-second, resolution, CPU cores and load, available memory, episode length, and the encoder you choose. Always test with your target workload, be mindful about your CPU & system capabilities and tune `encoder_threads`, `encoder_queue_maxsize`, and
-`vcodec` reasonably. That said, a common practical configuration (for many applications) is three cameras at 640×480x3 @30fps; this usually runs fine with the default streaming video encoding settings in modern systems. Always verify your recorded dataset is healthy by comparing the video duration to the CLI episode duration and confirming the row count equals FPS × CLI duration.

-# PyTorch accelerators
-
-LeRobot supports multiple hardware acceleration options for both training and inference.
-
-These options include:
-
- **CPU**: CPU executes all computations, no dedicated accelerator is used
- **CUDA**: acceleration with NVIDIA & AMD GPUs
- **MPS**: acceleration with Apple Silicon GPUs
- **XPU**: acceleration with Intel integrated and discrete GPUs
-
-## Getting Started
-
-To use particular accelerator, a suitable version of PyTorch should be installed.
-
-For CPU, CUDA, and MPS backends follow instructions provided on [PyTorch installation page](https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally).
-For XPU backend, follow instructions from [PyTorch documentation](https://docs.pytorch.org/docs/stable/notes/get_start_xpu.html).
-
-### Verifying the installation
-
-After installation, accelerator availability can be verified by running
-
-```python
-import torch
-print(torch.<backend_name>.is_available())  # <backend_name> is cuda, mps, or xpu
-```
-
-## How to run training or evaluation
-
-To select the desired accelerator, use the `--policy.device` flag when running `lerobot-train` or `lerobot-eval`. For example, to use MPS on Apple Silicon, run:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train
-    --policy.device=mps ...
-```
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-    --policy.device=mps ...
-```
-
-However, in most cases, presence of an accelerator is detected automatically and `policy.device` parameter can be omitted from CLI commands.

-
---
-
-## Part 1: Getting Started
-
-### Install the Unitree SDK
-
-Follow the [unitree_sdk2_python installation guide](https://github.com/unitreerobotics/unitree_sdk2_python#installation). Tested with `unitree_sdk2py==1.0.1` and `cyclonedds==0.10.2`:
-
-```bash
-conda create -y -n lerobot python=3.12
-conda activate lerobot
-git clone https://github.com/unitreerobotics/unitree_sdk2_python.git
-cd unitree_sdk2_python
-pip install -e .
-cd ..
-```
-
-### Install LeRobot
-
-```bash
-conda install ffmpeg -c conda-forge
-conda install -c conda-forge "pinocchio>=3.0.0,<4.0.0"
-git clone https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot.git
-cd lerobot
-pip install -e '.[unitree_g1]'
-```
-
-<Tip>
-  For now, pinocchio must be installed from conda-forge (not pip) to include the
-  CasADi bindings needed for arm IK.
-</Tip>
-
-### Test the Installation (Simulation)
-
-The simulation environment has its own dependencies. Check the Simulation environment dependencies: [Unitree G1 Mujoco EnvHub](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/unitree-g1-mujoco/tree/main).
-
-```bash
-pip install mujoco loguru msgpack msgpack-numpy
-```
-
-```bash
-lerobot-teleoperate \
-  --robot.type=unitree_g1 \
-  --robot.is_simulation=true \
-  --teleop.type=unitree_g1 \
-  --teleop.id=wbc_unitree \
-  --robot.cameras='{"global_view": {"type": "zmq", "server_address": "localhost", "port": 5555, "camera_name": "head_camera", "width": 640, "height": 480, "fps": 30, "warmup_s": 5}}' \
-  --display_data=true \
-  --robot.controller=GrootLocomotionController
-```
-
-This will launch a [MuJoCo sim instance](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/unitree-g1-mujoco/tree/main) for the G1. You can connect a gamepad to your machine before launching in order to control the robot's locomotion in sim. We support both [HolosomaLocomotionController](https://github.com/amazon-far/holosoma) and [GrootLocomotionController](https://github.com/NVlabs/GR00T-WholeBodyControl) via `--robot.controller`.
-
- Press `9` to release the robot
- Press `7` / `8` to increase / decrease waist height
-
-### Connect to the Physical Robot
-
-The G1's Ethernet IP is fixed at `192.168.123.164`. Your machine must have a static IP on the same subnet: `192.168.123.x` where `x ≠ 164`.
-
-```bash
-# Replace 'enp131s0' with your ethernet interface name (check with `ip a`)
-sudo ip addr flush dev enp131s0
-sudo ip addr add 192.168.123.200/24 dev enp131s0
-sudo ip link set enp131s0 up
-```
-
-### SSH into the Robot
-
-```bash
-ssh unitree@192.168.123.164
-# Password: 123
-```
-
-### Share Internet via Ethernet
-
-The G1 needs internet access to clone repos and install packages. Share your laptop's connection over Ethernet:
-
-**On your laptop:**
-
-```bash
-sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
-
-# Replace wlp132s0f0 with your WiFi interface name
-sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o wlp132s0f0 -s 192.168.123.0/24 -j MASQUERADE
-sudo iptables -A FORWARD -i wlp132s0f0 -o enp131s0 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-sudo iptables -A FORWARD -i enp131s0 -o wlp132s0f0 -j ACCEPT
-```
-
-**On the G1:**
-
-```bash
-sudo ip route del default 2>/dev/null || true
-sudo ip route add default via 192.168.123.200 dev eth0
-echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf
-
-# Verify
-ping -c 3 8.8.8.8
-```
-
-### Install the Unitree SDK on the G1
-
-Follow the [unitree_sdk2_python installation guide](https://github.com/unitreerobotics/unitree_sdk2_python#installation):
-
-```bash
-conda create -y -n lerobot python=3.12
-conda activate lerobot
-git clone https://github.com/unitreerobotics/unitree_sdk2_python.git
-cd unitree_sdk2_python
-python -m pip install -e .
-cd ..
-```
-
-### Install LeRobot on the G1
-

-cd lerobot
-conda install -c conda-forge "pinocchio>=3.0.0,<4.0.0"
-python -m pip install -e '.[unitree_g1]'
-```
-
-<Tip>
-  For now, pinocchio must be installed from conda-forge (not pip) to include the
-  CasADi bindings needed for arm IK.
-</Tip>
-
-### (Optional) Enable WiFi on the Robot
-
-For wireless SSH access, you can enable WiFi on the G1 (it's blocked by default):
-
-```bash
-sudo rfkill unblock all
-sudo ip link set wlan0 up
-sudo nmcli radio wifi on
-sudo nmcli device set wlan0 managed yes
-sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager
-```
-
-**Connect to a WiFi network:**
-
-```bash
-nmcli device wifi list
-
-sudo nmcli connection add type wifi ifname wlan0 con-name "YourNetwork" ssid "YourNetwork"
-sudo nmcli connection modify "YourNetwork" wifi-sec.key-mgmt wpa-psk

-## Part 2: Teleoperation & Locomotion
-
-### Run the Robot Server
-
-On the robot (from `~/lerobot`):
-
-```bash
-cd ~/lerobot
-python src/lerobot/robots/unitree_g1/run_g1_server.py --camera
-```
-
-### Run the Locomotion Policy
-
-You can run the teleoperation client from your laptop over Ethernet, over WiFi (experimental), or directly on the robot itself. Mind potential latency introduced by your network.
-
-**From your laptop:**
-
-```bash
-lerobot-teleoperate \
-  --robot.type=unitree_g1 \
-  --robot.is_simulation=false \
-  --robot.robot_ip=<ROBOT_IP> \
-  --teleop.type=unitree_g1 \
-  --teleop.id=wbc_unitree \
-  --robot.cameras='{"global_view": {"type": "zmq", "server_address": "<ROBOT_IP>", "port": 5555, "camera_name": "head_camera", "width": 640, "height": 480, "fps": 30}}' \
-  --display_data=true \
-  --robot.controller=HolosomaLocomotionController
-```
-
-We support both [GrootLocomotionController](https://github.com/NVlabs/GR00T-WholeBodyControl) and [HolosomaLocomotionController](https://github.com/amazon-far/holosoma) via `--robot.controller`.

-# WALL-OSS
-
-WALL-OSS is an open-source foundation model for embodied intelligence, proposed by the [XSquare Robot](https://x2robot.com/en/research/68bc2cde8497d7f238dde690) team in 2025. The LeRobot implementation is adapted from their open-source [WallX](https://github.com/X-Square-Robot/wall-x) repository.
-
-X Square Robot’s WALL-OSS is now integrated into Hugging Face’s LeRobot ecosystem. This is an exciting collaborative project between the LeRobot and X Square Robot teams. You can now post-train, evaluate, and deploy WALL-OSS directly through LeRobot. With this, we’re aiming to make it easier for the open-source robotics community to customize and deploy WALL-OSS foundation models. Read and explore WALL-OSS [paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2509.11766) and [code](https://github.com/X-Square-Robot/wall-x).
-
-## Model Overview
-
-The WALL-OSS team is building the embodied foundation model to capture and compress the world's most valuable data: the continuous, high-fidelity stream of physical interaction. By creating a direct feedback loop between the model's decisions and the body's lived experience, the emergence of a truly generalizable intelligence is enabled—one that understands not just how the world works, but how to act effectively within it.
-

-  alt="An overview of WALL-OSS"
-  width="85%"
-/>
-
-Technically, WALL-OSS introduces a tightly coupled multimodal architecture (tightly-coupled MoE structure) that integrates both discrete and continuous action modeling strategies. Through a two-stage training pipeline (Inspiration → Integration), the model gradually unifies semantic reasoning and high-frequency action generation. Its core innovations include:
-
- **Embodied perception–enhanced multimodal pretraining**: Large-scale training on unified vision–language–action data to strengthen spatial, causal, and manipulation understanding.
- **Unified Cross-Level Chain-of-Thought (Uni-CoT)**: A single differentiable framework that unifies high-level instruction reasoning, sub-task decomposition, and fine-grained action synthesis, forming a continuous chain from “understanding” to “execution.”
- **Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) action heads**: Dynamically activating experts depending on the task phase and modeling actions in discrete or continuous space to maintain stable VLM priors.
- **Two-stage training paradigm**:
-  - **Inspiration stage**: Injecting discrete action priors to strengthen spatial understanding and semantic-action alignment.
-  - **Integration stage**: Using flow matching to achieve high-frequency continuous control.
-

-# X-VLA: The First Soft-Prompted Robot Foundation Model for Any Robot, Any Task
-
-## Overview
-
-For years, robotics has aspired to build agents that can follow natural human instructions and operate dexterously across many environments and robot bodies. Recent breakthroughs in LLMs and VLMs suggest a path forward: extend these foundation-model architectures to embodied control by grounding them in actions. This has led to the rise of Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, with the hope that a single generalist model could combine broad semantic understanding with robust manipulation skills.
-
-But training such models is difficult. Robot data is fragmented across platforms, sensors, embodiments, and collection protocols. Heterogeneity appears everywhere: different arm configurations, different action spaces, different camera setups, different visual domains, and different task distributions. These inconsistencies create major distribution shifts that make pretraining unstable and adaptation unreliable.
-
-Inspired by meta-learning and prompt learning, we ask: **"What if a VLA model could learn the structure of each robot and dataset the same way LLMs learn tasks, through prompts?"**
-
-**X-VLA** is a soft-prompted, flow-matching VLA framework that treats each hardware setup as a "task" and encodes it using a small set of learnable embeddings. These **Soft Prompts** capture embodiment and domain-specific variations, guiding the Transformer from the earliest stages of multimodal fusion. With this mechanism, X-VLA can reconcile diverse robot morphologies, data types, and sensor setups within a single unified architecture.

-    style="max-width: 100%; height: auto; width: 800px;"
-  />
-</p>
-
-Built from pure Transformer encoders, X-VLA scales naturally with model size and dataset diversity. Across 6 simulation benchmarks and 3 real robots, Soft Prompts consistently outperform existing methods in handling hardware and domain differences. X-VLA-0.9B, trained on 290K episodes spanning seven robotic platforms, learns an embodiment-agnostic generalist policy in Phase I, and adapts efficiently to new robots in Phase II simply by learning a new set of prompts, while keeping the backbone frozen.

-    alt="XVLA Architecture 2"
-    style="width: 60%; height: auto;"
-  />
-</p>
-
-With only 1% of parameters tuned (9M), X-VLA-0.9B achieves near-π₀ performance on LIBERO and Simpler-WidowX, despite using **300× fewer trainable parameters**. It also demonstrates strong real-world dexterity with minimal demonstrations, including folding cloths in under two minutes.

-    style="width: 95%; max-width: 1100px; height: auto;"
-  />
-</p>
-
-X-VLA shows that generalist robot intelligence does not require increasingly complex architectures, only the right way to absorb heterogeneity. Soft Prompts offer a simple, scalable mechanism for unifying diverse robotic data, paving the way toward adaptable, cross-embodiment robot foundation models.

- **Phase I: Pretraining** - Pretrained on 290K episodes from Droid, Robomind, and Agibot, spanning seven platforms across five types of robotic arms (single-arm to bi-manual setups). By leveraging soft prompts to absorb embodiment-specific variations, the model learns an embodiment-agnostic generalist policy.
-
- **Phase II: Domain Adaptation** - Adapted to deployable policies for target domains. A new set of soft prompts is introduced and optimized to encode the hardware configuration of the novel domain, while the pretrained backbone remains frozen.

-## Training X-VLA
-
-### Recommended Training Configuration
-
-When fine-tuning X-VLA for a new embodiment or task, we recommend not freezing the VLM, and also setting the `policy.dtype=bfloat16` to not hit OOM errors.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --dataset.repo_id=YOUR_DATASET \
-  --output_dir=./outputs/xvla_training \
-  --job_name=xvla_training \
-  --policy.path="lerobot/xvla-base" \
-  --policy.repo_id="HF_USER/xvla-your-robot" \
-  --policy.dtype=bfloat16 \
-  --policy.action_mode=auto \
-  --steps=20000 \
-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  --policy.freeze_vision_encoder=false \
-  --policy.freeze_language_encoder=false \
-  --policy.train_policy_transformer=true \
-  --policy.train_soft_prompts=true \
-```
-
-### Training Parameters Explained
-
-| Parameter                  | Default | Description                                    |
-| -------------------------- | ------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
-| `freeze_vision_encoder`    | `false` | Do not freeze the VLM vision encoder weights   |
-| `freeze_language_encoder`  | `false` | Do not freeze the VLM language encoder weights |
-| `train_policy_transformer` | `true`  | Allow policy transformer layers to train       |
-| `train_soft_prompts`       | `true`  | Allow soft prompts to train                    |
-
-**💡 Best Practice**: For Phase II adaptation to new embodiments, do not freeze the VLM encoders and also train the policy transformer and soft prompts.
-
-### Example: Training on Bimanual Robot
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --dataset.repo_id=<USER>/bimanual-so100-handover-cube \
-  --output_dir=./outputs/xvla_bimanual \
-  --job_name=xvla_so101_training \
-  --policy.path="lerobot/xvla-base" \
-  --policy.dtype=bfloat16 \
-  --policy.repo_id="YOUR_USERNAME/xvla-biso101" \
-  --steps=3000 \
-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  --policy.action_mode=so101_bimanual \
-  --policy.freeze_vision_encoder=false \
-  --policy.freeze_language_encoder=false \
-  --policy.train_policy_transformer=true \
-  --policy.train_soft_prompts=true
-```
-
-💡 **Best Performance:** If you have sufficient computational resources and want to achieve best X-VLA finetuning performance, you should follow the official finetuning strategy:
-
-**🔥 Full-finetune all components with a custom learning-rate scheme**
-
-To ensure stable optimization, the Vision-Language Model (VLM) must be trained with only 1/10 of the base learning rate, while all other components use the full LR.
-This LR ratio is crucial for achieving strong and stable finetuning performance. This is already done for you by default.
-❕Note
-
-Completely matching the official reported performance may require an additional warm-up LR schedule for soft-prompts, which can bring minor improvements.
-We encourage implementing this in your customized training pipeline for optimal results.
-
-## Core Concepts
-
-### 1. Action Modes
-
-X-VLA uses an **Action Registry** system to handle different action spaces and embodiments. The `action_mode` parameter defines how actions are processed, what loss functions are used, and how predictions are post-processed.
-
-#### Available Action Modes
-
-| Action Mode      | Action Dim              | Description                                 | Use Case                             |
-| ---------------- | ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
-| `ee6d`           | 20                      | End-effector with xyz, 6D rotation, gripper | Dual-arm setups with spatial control |
-| `joint`          | 14                      | Joint-space with gripper                    | Direct joint control robots          |
-| `agibot_ee6d`    | 20                      | AGI-bot variant with MSE loss               | AGI-bot platforms                    |
-| `so101_bimanual` | 20 (model), 12 (real)   | SO101 bimanual robot                        | Bimanual manipulation tasks          |
-| `auto`           | 20 (model), auto (real) | Auto-detects action dim from dataset        | **Recommended** for new robots       |
-
-#### Why Action Modes Matter
-
-When you have a pretrained checkpoint like `lerobot/xvla-base` trained with `action_dim=20`, and you want to train on a dataset with a different action dimension (e.g., 14 for bimanual arms), you can't simply trim the action dimension. The action mode orchestrates:
-
-1. **Loss Computation**: Different loss functions for different action components (MSE for joints, BCE for grippers, etc.)
-2. **Preprocessing**: Zeroing out gripper channels, padding dimensions
-3. **Postprocessing**: Applying sigmoid to gripper logits, trimming padding
-
-#### Example: BimanualSO101 Action Space
-
-The `so101_bimanual` action mode handles the mismatch between model output (20D) and real robot control (12D):
-
-```python
-# Model outputs 20 dimensions for compatibility
-dim_action = 20
-
-# Real robot only needs 12 dimensions
-# [left_arm (6), right_arm (6)] = [joints (5) + gripper (1)] × 2
-REAL_DIM = 12
-
-# Preprocessing: Pad 12D actions to 20D for training
-# Postprocessing: Trim 20D predictions to 12D for deployment
-```
-
-See the [action_hub.py](/home/jade_choghari/robot/lerobot/src/lerobot/policies/xvla/action_hub.py) implementation for details.
-
-#### Auto Action Mode (Recommended)
-
-The `auto` action mode is the easiest way to use X-VLA with any robot. It automatically detects your dataset's action dimension and handles padding/trimming:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --policy.path="lerobot/xvla-base" \
-  --policy.action_mode=auto \
-  --policy.max_action_dim=20 \
-  ...
-```
-
-**How it works:**
-
- Reads `action_feature.shape[-1]` from your dataset (e.g., 7 for Franka)
- Model outputs `max_action_dim` (default 20) for pretrained compatibility
- Loss is computed **only on the real dimensions**: `MSE(pred[:,:,:real_dim], target[:,:,:real_dim])`
- Postprocess trims output back to `real_dim` for robot control
-
-This eliminates the need to create custom action modes for most robots.
-
-### 2. Domain IDs
-
-Domain IDs are learnable identifiers for different robot configurations and camera setups. They allow X-VLA to distinguish between:
-
- Different robots (Robot 1 vs Robot 2)
- Different camera configurations (cam1 vs cam2)
- Different combinations (Robot1-cam1-cam2 vs Robot1-cam1 vs Robot2-cam1)
-
-#### Setting Domain IDs
-
-**During Training**: By default, domain_id is set to 0 for general training.
-
-**During Evaluation**: Specify the domain_id that matches your checkpoint's training configuration.
-
-```python
-# Example: LIBERO checkpoint uses domain_id=3
-domain_id = 3
-```
-
-The domain_id is automatically added to observations by the `XVLAAddDomainIdProcessorStep` in the preprocessing pipeline.
-
-The `lerobot/xvla-base` model has been trained on the following domain IDs. It is recommended to choose one that most resembles your robot/configuration:
-
-#### Fine-tuning Datasets
-
-| Dataset Name     | Domain ID |
-| ---------------- | --------- |
-| Bridge           | 0         |
-| RT1              | 1         |
-| Calvin           | 2         |
-| libero           | 3         |
-| widowx-air       | 4         |
-| AIR-AGILEX-HQ    | 5         |
-| robotwin2_abs_ee | 6         |
-| robotwin2_clean  | 6         |
-| robocasa-human   | 7         |
-| VLABench         | 8         |
-| AGIBOT-challenge | 9         |
-| AIR-AGILEX       | 10        |
-| AIRBOT           | 18        |
-
-### 3. Processor Steps
-
-X-VLA requires specific preprocessing and postprocessing steps for proper operation.
-
-#### Required Preprocessing Steps
-
-1. **XVLAImageToFloatProcessorStep**: Converts images from [0, 255] to [0, 1] range
-2. **XVLAImageNetNormalizeProcessorStep**: Applies ImageNet normalization (required for VLM backbone)
-3. **XVLAAddDomainIdProcessorStep**: Adds domain_id to observations
-
-#### Example Custom Processor
-
-For LIBERO environments, a custom processor handles the specific observation format:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.policies.xvla.processor_xvla import LiberoProcessorStep
-
-processor = LiberoProcessorStep()
-# Handles robot_state dictionary, converts rotation matrices to 6D representation
-# Applies 180° image rotation for camera convention
-```
-
-### 4. Configuration Parameters
-
-Key configuration parameters for X-VLA:
-
-```python
-# Observation and action
-n_obs_steps: int = 1          # Number of observation timesteps
-chunk_size: int = 32           # Action sequence length
-n_action_steps: int = 32       # Number of action steps to execute
-
-# Model architecture
-hidden_size: int = 1024        # Transformer hidden dimension
-depth: int = 24                # Number of transformer layers
-num_heads: int = 16            # Number of attention heads
-num_domains: int = 30          # Maximum number of domain IDs
-len_soft_prompts: int = 32     # Length of soft prompt embeddings
-
-# Action space
-action_mode: str = "ee6d"      # Action space type (use "auto" for auto-detection)
-use_proprio: bool = True       # Use proprioceptive state
-max_state_dim: int = 32        # Maximum state dimension
-max_action_dim: int = 20       # Max action dim for padding (used by "auto" mode)
-
-# Vision
-num_image_views: int | None    # Number of camera views
-resize_imgs_with_padding: tuple[int, int] | None  # Target image size with padding
-
-# Training
-num_denoising_steps: int = 10  # Flow matching denoising steps
-```
-
-## Creating Custom Action Modes
-
-If your robot has a unique action space, you can create a custom action mode:
-
-### Step 1: Define Your Action Space
-
-```python
-from lerobot.policies.xvla.action_hub import BaseActionSpace, register_action
-import torch.nn as nn
-
-@register_action("my_custom_robot")
-class MyCustomActionSpace(BaseActionSpace):
-    """Custom action space for my robot."""
-
-    dim_action = 15  # Your robot's action dimension
-    gripper_idx = (7, 14)  # Gripper channel indices
-
-    def __init__(self):
-        super().__init__()
-        self.mse = nn.MSELoss()
-        self.bce = nn.BCEWithLogitsLoss()
-
-    def compute_loss(self, pred, target):
-        """Define your loss computation."""
-        # Example: MSE for joints, BCE for grippers
-        joints_loss = self.mse(pred[:, :, :7], target[:, :, :7])
-        gripper_loss = self.bce(pred[:, :, self.gripper_idx],
-                                target[:, :, self.gripper_idx])
-
-        return {
-            "joints_loss": joints_loss,
-            "gripper_loss": gripper_loss,
-        }
-
-    def preprocess(self, proprio, action, mode="train"):
-        """Preprocess actions before training."""
-        # Example: Zero out grippers in proprioception
-        proprio_m = proprio.clone()
-        action_m = action.clone() if action is not None else None
-        proprio_m[..., self.gripper_idx] = 0.0
-        if action_m is not None:
-            action_m[..., self.gripper_idx] = 0.0
-        return proprio_m, action_m
-
-    def postprocess(self, action):
-        """Post-process predictions for deployment."""
-        # Example: Apply sigmoid to gripper logits
-        action[..., self.gripper_idx] = torch.sigmoid(action[..., self.gripper_idx])
-        return action
-```
-
-### Step 2: Use Your Custom Action Mode
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --policy.action_mode=my_custom_robot \
-  --dataset.repo_id=YOUR_DATASET \
-  --policy.path="lerobot/xvla-base" \
-  ...
-```
-
-## Advanced Topics
-
-### Multi-Camera Support
-
-X-VLA supports multiple camera views through the `num_image_views` parameter:
-
-```python
-# Configure for 3 camera views
-policy.num_image_views=3
-
-# Add empty cameras if you have fewer physical cameras
-policy.empty_cameras=1  # Adds 1 zero-padded camera view
-```
-
-### Custom Preprocessing Pipeline
-
-Create a custom preprocessing pipeline for your environment:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.processor import PolicyProcessorPipeline
-from lerobot.policies.xvla.processor_xvla import (
-    XVLAImageToFloatProcessorStep,
-    XVLAImageNetNormalizeProcessorStep,
-    XVLAAddDomainIdProcessorStep,
-)
-
-# Build custom pipeline
-preprocessor = PolicyProcessorPipeline(
-    steps=[
-        YourCustomProcessorStep(),  # Your custom processing
-        XVLAImageToFloatProcessorStep(),  # Required: convert to float
-        XVLAImageNetNormalizeProcessorStep(),  # Required: ImageNet norm
-        XVLAAddDomainIdProcessorStep(domain_id=5),  # Your domain ID
-    ]
-)
-```
-
-### Handling Different Action Dimensions
-
-When your dataset has fewer action dimensions than the pretrained model:
-
-**Option 1 (Recommended)**: Use `auto` action mode
-
-```bash
-# Automatically detects your dataset's action dimension
-# Works with any robot without custom code
-policy.action_mode=auto
-policy.max_action_dim=20  # Match pretrained model
-```
-
-**Option 2**: Use a predefined action mode with built-in padding
-
-```python
-# Model expects 20D, dataset has 12D
-# Action mode handles padding internally
-action_mode = "so101_bimanual"  # Pads 12 → 20
-```
-
-**Option 2**: Create a custom action mode that maps dimensions explicitly
-
-```python
-@register_action("my_mapped_action")
-class MappedActionSpace(BaseActionSpace):
-    dim_action = 20
-    REAL_DIM = 12
-
-    def _pad_to_model_dim(self, x):
-        # Custom padding logic
-        ...
-```
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Common Issues
-
-**Issue**: "Action dimension mismatch"
-
- **Solution**: Check that your `action_mode` matches your robot's action space. Create a custom action mode if needed.
-
-**Issue**: "Image values outside [0, 1] range"
-
- **Solution**: Ensure images are preprocessed with `XVLAImageToFloatProcessorStep` before normalization.
-
-**Issue**: "Domain ID not found"
-
- **Solution**: Make sure `XVLAAddDomainIdProcessorStep` is in your preprocessing pipeline with the correct domain_id.
-
-**Issue**: "Low success rate on new embodiment"
-
- **Solution**:
-  1. Verify your action_mode is correct
-  2. Check that soft prompts are being trained (`train_soft_prompts=True`)
-  3. Ensure proper preprocessing (ImageNet normalization, domain_id)
-  4. Consider increasing training steps
-
-**Issue**: "Out of memory during training"
-
- **Solution**:
-  1. Reduce `chunk_size` (e.g., from 32 to 16)
-  2. Enable gradient checkpointing
-  3. Reduce batch size
-  4. Freeze more components
