K-Scale Robotics Residency

Are you interested in hacking on robots for a couple of weeks?

As part of the K-Scale Robotics Residency, we provide room, equipment, and robots in the Silicon Valley for free.

We're interested in cool people building cool projects and working on important problems. The residency project is like a hackathon, to be completed in 2 weeks using our readily available hardware and robots. 

We have some equipment and can allocate some budget to projects that seem very promising. The best projects should have a concrete outcome.


Equipment

3D printers

Lots of actuators of different varieties

Batteries, sensors, and other standard robot hardware

Electronics bench

GPUs

Edge devices (Jetsons, Qualcomm boards)

...


Expected outcomes

At the end of the two-week residency, we will have a demo day where you will show what you've built.


Potential ideas

- PRs to existing K-Scale repositories

- Implementing a recent paper that you found interesting on physical hardware

- Improving OpenVLA models

- Building a prototype PCB

- Designing and 3D printing your robot

Any other robotics-related ideas that you think you will find interesting...
