Introducing GR00T 2: an open System One model for robotics running on onboard compute
Overview
The post announces the release of GR00T 2, described as the most advanced open System One model for robotics. It claims to run entirely on a robot's onboard compute without tethering and allows ownership of all model weights. Key features include handling long-horizon tasks like chemistry experiments or airplane assembly over 20+ steps and 5+ minutes, adapting from human wearable and simulation data via X-Adapt for zero-shot deployment on diverse robots, and unified cognition with frontier agents for physical reasoning and safety. The release includes model weights, adaptation recipes (coming December), an agentic framework, simulation engine, annotation engine, hardware design, and training data totaling 100K hours.
