LeRobot v0.6.0: Imagine, Evaluate, Improve
LeRobot v0.6.0 introduces new features to improve robot learning, including world model policies that imagine the future and reward models that evaluate success. The release also includes six new simulation benchmarks and a leaner installation process. The updates aim to close the robot learning loop and provide more efficient training and inference capabilities.
- ▪LeRobot v0.6.0 includes three new world model policies: VLA-JEPA, LingBot-VA, and FastWAM.
- ▪The release introduces a new reward models API, including Robometer and TOPReward.
- ▪Datasets now support depth sensing, custom video encoding, and up to 2x faster data loading.
