About this Learning Path

Who is this for?

This Learning Path is for developers interested in edge AI, robotics simulation, and physical AI applications. You can complete the main path without owning a physical Reachy Mini.

What will you learn?

Upon completion of this Learning Path, you will be able to:

  • Understand why simulation environments can aid Edge AI and robotics development.
  • Run a simulated Reachy Mini robot on a laptop or desktop.
  • Use MediaPipe and TensorFlow Lite gesture recognition on Raspberry Pi 5.
  • Connect an edge inference node to a robot daemon over the network.
  • Display results over a web dashboard.
  • Optionally extend the project toward a physical Reachy Mini, audio or multimodal interaction, or your own app.

Prerequisites

Before starting, you will need the following:

  • A Raspberry Pi 5, ideally with 16 GB RAM.
  • A USB webcam connected to the Raspberry Pi.
  • A macOS or Linux machine, or a Windows machine with WSL2, capable of running the Reachy Mini MuJoCo simulation.
  • Basic Python and Bash terminal experience.
  • (Optional) Reachy Mini
