Xu Ningyi of the NVIDIA SRL team announces DROID+, an improved hardware control stack for the open-source DROID platform, built on the belief that robots and hardware should be easy to set up and easy to use. DROID+ bundles robot-control, camera, and gripper services with clients for the DROID setup, runs policies via joint positions, and supports SO-101 leader-arm teleoperation plus closed-loop policy evaluation through CLI and web UI. The attached clip shows the pi0.5 VLA policy from Physical Intelligence performing the platform hello-world manipulation task. Code: github.com/nvlabs/droidplus.
