HomeRobot
Mobile manipulation research tools for roboticists
...Designed for low-cost robots such as the Hello Robot Stretch, HomeRobot enables agents to perceive, navigate, and interact with their surroundings through vision and manipulation. The system focuses on Open Vocabulary Mobile Manipulation (OVMM) — a challenging task in which a robot must explore an unknown environment, identify an object by name, locate a suitable receptacle, and place the object appropriately. HomeRobot integrates perception, planning, and control under a unified architecture, supporting AI Habitat for simulation and ROS Noetic for real-world deployment. It provides interfaces for Detic, Grounded-SAM, and Contact-GraspNet, allowing open-vocabulary detection and 3D grasping.
