MadmanMischief/so101_candy_sort_sim_half

SO101 candy sort — 55 scripted Isaac Sim demos, half resolution

Task: teach an SO101 arm (leader/follower teleoperation) to pick the blue candies out of a mixed blue and green pile and drop them on a towel. Language prompt: "pick up the blue candy". Built during the B1S Hacktober Physical AI 2026 hackathon with LeRobot 0.6.2.

Robot: SO101 follower, 6 joints (pan, lift, elbow, wrist flex, wrist roll, gripper) at 30 Hz. Cameras: wrist (USB webcam on the gripper) and phone (Android phone beside the table).

Scripted pick-and-place demos recorded in the Isaac Sim 6.1 digital twin of the table (rendered wrist and phone cameras fitted to the real ones): 55 episodes, 31,125 frames, half resolution.

Models trained on it: act_candy_sort_sim
