Hugging Face’s $399 rollerskating duck robot
Hugging Face’s Pollen Robotics just unveiled Microduck, a sub-10-inch bipedal robot available for preorder at $399. The open-source bot can rollerskate, retrieve items, and follow laser pointers, all while generating a permanent unique voice on its very first boot. It is basically an affordable, hackable robotic pet built for both play and AI experimentation.
