Train a No-Code AI Robotic Arm with LeRobot and SO-101

Brogan M. Pratt walks through assembling an SO-101 arm, installing Hugging Face LeRobot, recording teleoperation data, and training an ACT model. The chapters cover hardware setup, dataset creation, training, and testing the arm on a pick-and-place task.

What you'll learn

  • Assemble an SO-101 robotic arm and set up a training environment
  • Install LeRobot and calibrate leader and follower arms
  • Record teleoperation episodes to create a visual dataset
  • Train an ACT model on Hugging Face with no local GPU required
  • Evaluate model checkpoints and avoid overfitting
  • Run inference and test the arm on a pick-and-place task
