$PI OM1 is the world's first "AI-native" open-source robot operating system developed by American company OpenMind, aiming to create a universal robot platform similar to Android. It enables different manufacturers and various types of robots to develop, collaborate, and continuously learn on a unified software foundation.

🤖 What is the OM1 robot system?
If you compare a robot's hardware to a body, OM1 is the "general-purpose robot brain" that endows it with intelligence. It is not an actual physical robot itself but a set of underlying software. Its core design philosophy is hardware-neutral, allowing the system to run on quadruped robots, humanoid robots, or drones.

✨ Key Highlights and Capabilities

· AI-native, model selection at your convenience: Designed from scratch for AI, easily integrates multiple AI models (such as GPT-4o, Gemini, DeepSeek, etc.), enabling robots to understand natural language, observe their environment, and make autonomous decisions.
· FABRIC Collaboration Network: A supporting decentralized protocol that grants robots secure digital identities. Different brand robots can share information and collaborate on tasks (such as delivery robots automatically interfacing with autonomous vehicles for pickup), no longer operating in isolation.
· Simplified development and deployment: Open-source and supports one-click deployment via Docker, with an Avatar frontend interface for easy monitoring. According to the official, developers can prototype a robot dog in just a few minutes.
· Robot App Store: Building a mobile app-like store that allows robots to continuously acquire new skills (such as housekeeping, security) through downloads, without hardware replacement.

📈 Latest Progress and Ecosystem

· Open Source and Community: OM1 Beta version has been released on GitHub (licensed under MIT), attracting thousands of developers worldwide and garnering over 2,500 stars.
· Hardware Partnerships: Compatible with mainstream brands like Yushutec, UBTECH, TurtleBot, and others, with deep collaborations with multiple Chinese manufacturers.
· Education and Implementation: Partnered with RoboStore to launch OM1-based robot courses to promote university education. Meanwhile, OM1-driven robot dogs have been tested and iterated in real household environments.
