🚀 Get Started

Note: Wait for the full hardware release on 2025.07.19 before purchasing the items on BOM.

👣 Steps

1. 💵 Buy the parts — Bill of Materials (BOM)
2. 🖨️ 3D Print accessories — STL files for sensor mounts & chassis
3. 🔧 Assemble Roomi — Step-by-step build guide
4. 💻 Run the software — Boot Ubuntu + ROS2 or Mujoco sim & go!

Requirements:

• Python 3.8+
• Platformio (for flashing firmware)
• MuJoCo (for real or sim)
• Basic Git + pip + terminal skills

Here’s the updated README section with your note added in the correct style and tone:

🎮 Simulate & Teleoperate Roomi with MuJoCo

You can launch and play (teleoperate) with Roomi using MuJoCo. We provide two entry-point scripts:

• Basic teleop:

  python roomi_mujoc.py

• Advanced motor control:

  python control.py

Setup instructions:

1. Create a conda environment:

   conda create -n roomi python=3.10
   conda activate roomi

2. Install dependencies and Roomi in editable mode:

   pip install -e .

🧠 Roomi + ManiSkill

Roomi is also supported in ManiSkill. Check the roomi.py file for how to register Roomi in simulation and define keyframes, sensors, and controllers.
