Real-time social robotics, from the cloud to your local device. Watch Ian from our DevX team use Gemini Live for a seamless voice chat with Reachy Mini. Then, stick around until the end to see the robot running locally on Gemma 4!

Reachy mini running locally in near real time was not on my bingo card too! 😱 With version 1.8.0 you can even add MCP thanks to @ailozovskaya details here: huggingface.co/blog/adding-m… (I hope Private Spaces support will be added soon) AI is speeding up innovation faster than light! Models used: - Gemma 4 E4B QAT - Parakeet TDT 0.6B v3 - Qwen3-TTS 1.7B CustomVoice (speaker: Aiden, you can change this easily) Commands used: - llama-server -hf google/gemma-4-E4B-it-qat-q4_0-gguf -np 2 -c 65536 -fa on --swa-full - speech-to-speech --responses_api_base_url "http://127.0.0.1:8080" --responses_api_api_key "" Thanks again to @andimarafioti @pollenrobotics @huggingface 🙏 This little robot is so funny to use!

I asked Reachy Mini to talk like a caveman and he started being surprisingly uplifting

We mentioned it a few weeks ago — Reachy Mini's price is changing, for a number of reasons. You have two days left to get it at the original price: hf.co/reachy-mini

Introducing local Reachy Mini conversations: free chats forever! So fast that we had to hardcode delays to stop it from interrupting you mid-sentence. We built an open-source Realtime API powered by llama.cpp: Parakeet -> Gemma 4 E4B -> Qwen3TTS Run it anywhere you run local LMs. Video shows DGX Spark and a 36GB M3 Pro MacBook.

models are the easiest part of an AI product now the next phase of AI engineering is better behavior runtimes - everything around the model when we combine an LLM with robots: - model sets intent, not direct action - personality is policy - idle state is a product decision - latency is interaction design - voice is UX video featuring Reachy Mini from @huggingface x @pollenrobotics x @elevenlabs x @openai on my channel youtube.com/watch?v=wrRW4lQ-… also can spot my chat with the lovely @ZhangsqNo1 at @AIEMiami❤️‍🔥

The panda master is a modified Reachy Mini from @pollenrobotics: - added panda ears - painted black eye circles - connected to GPT voice conversation When the conversation reaches “fortune telling mode,” GPT emits a tool call containing: - drawing trajectories - interpretation text While generating the fortune map, the panda’s head starts shaking violently like it’s performing some ancient ritual 😂

BTS 🤖 Team: My kids nephews joined as interns. Lots of questions. One 2-year-old QA tester nearly started a fish tank test 📷 Thanks to @huggingface and @pollenrobotics to make AI and robotics feel real, hands-on, and exciting for the next generation of builders.

New dances added to the reachy mini desktop app. Try them and post a video below?

Reachy Mini getting ready for Mobile App? 👀 What is this @huggingface / @pollenrobotics 🧐

Reachy Mini is Assembled and Ready Shout out to @huggingface and @pollenrobotics #reachymini #Ai

are you ready for portable reachy mini?

It’s time! Hf.co/reachy-mini

Can’t wait to build something cool with reachy!

Where do you even start with robotics? I made a 10-min speedrun of every concept you'll need and the mental model of how it all fits together: → hardware (GPU/CPU) → OS / Linux → Python, Jupyter, Tensors → AI, ML, Neural Nets → Docker → Computer Vision → ROS & more Episode 0 of my new series with @seeedstudio and @NVIDIARobotics is live 👇 youtu.be/x35bs2XFi0w This is just the beginning! We'll be diving into each of these topics with hands-on tutorials in the episodes ahead. Make sure you subscribe to Back To Engineering to join us on this learning journey! #robotics #physicalAI #NVIDIA #Jetson

My Object Detection w/ @TensorFlow, @opencvlibrary, and @pycharm is out now on the @huggingface / @pollenrobotics App Registry! You can try it yourself on your own Reachy <3 Full code breakdown video coming soon on the PyCharm YouTube Channel! code: github.com/iuliaferoli/Reach…

I 3D printed my Reachy mini a custom outfit, then built a live object detection app and deployed it on her camera Turns out she's not a robot with AI added. She's an LLM with a body. different thing youtube.com/watch?v=2D_EAcDg…

favorite AGI/sci-fi vibe these days is coding a robot code together with the robot here vibe-pluging @ElevenLabs in @reachymini for a talk later today

"The coolest social robot in the world" As HRI 2026 in Edinburgh showed us, Reachy Mini already holds a special place in your hearts. Step by step, it is becoming the ideal companion for your projects, and your interactions with our robot encourage us to make it even better!
