Hello, everyone,
I’m excited to introduce you to ROBOTIS AI WORKER, an open-source, ROS 2 based mobile humanoid robot that leverages teleoperation and transformer-based imitation learning to perform real-world manipulation tasks. We’re pushing the boundaries of Physical AI, making complex robot behaviors accessible through intuitive human demonstrations.
ROBOTIS AI WORKER, Imitation Learning Demo
[ ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnJpFX2G3P4)
This video showcases the imitation learning pipeline for AI WORKER — starting from teleoperation-based data collection to data visualization and finally Model inference.
Our current policy is based on ACT(Action Chunking with Transformers), enabling the robot to understand and execute high-level behaviors from demonstration data.
📌 In this video, you’ll see:
1. Teleoperation for collecting demonstration data
2. Visualization of the collected data
3. Model inference using a trained transformer-based model
We begin with a simple pick-and-place task, but more complex manipulation behaviors are on the way.
Stay tuned as we continue to push the boundaries of physical AI in real-world robotics.
🤖 This project is built with ROS 2 and is fully open source.

Thanks. But I dont find the 3d models? Where are they? And the boom list?

You can find the relevant model files here:
[https://github.com/ROBOTIS-GIT/ai\_worker/tree/main/ffw\_description/meshes/follower](https://github.com/ROBOTIS-GIT/ai_worker/tree/main/ffw_description/meshes/follower)
Please note that in most ROS packages, the model files are typically stored within the `*_description` package.
If you’re specifically looking for MuJoCo files, please refer to the following repository:
