Lightbot 0 Timeline

Light Origins publishes its technical write-up, introducing Lightbot 0 (90 cm, 18.9 kg, 21 joints) and its Real2Sim2Real method. Demos show speed vaults, reverse vaults, climbing onto boxes, stairs, a narrow plank bridge and stepping stones, all transferred zero-shot from simulation.

The Light Origins team posts “Light-Loco-Parkour: Versatile Perceptive Whole-Body Locomotion via Multi-Skill Distillation” to arXiv, describing a single depth-only policy that decides for itself when to walk, climb, vault or step down.
