COMMUNITY SHOWCASE

Built with Cyberwave

Developers, researchers, and builders are using Cyberwave to control robots, build autonomous workflows, and ship physical automations that move the real world. Here's what they've built.

Cyberwave Robotic Agents Hackathon — builders, developers, and the community

Robotic Agents Hackathon SF 2026 · San Francisco, CA

Cohort Showcase

Builder Projects

Projects shipped by builders in the Cyberwave cohort program — a 4-week sprint where developers build real robots end-to-end with the Cyberwave SDK, edge core, and cloud workflows.

Jupyter Rover

UGV Beast

A collective learning catalog of 35 self-contained Jupyter notebooks for the UGV Beast — from camera calibration and AprilTag localization to YOLOv8 obstacle detection, autonomous patrol, a VLA pipeline, and self-building digital twins.

buildPARITY

Custom rover (Pi 5 + D500 Lidar)

Tiered autonomous monitoring for construction sites: a Raspberry Pi 5 with D500 Lidar handles safety-critical reflexes via ROS 2 + Nav2, while cloud VLA models drive mission-level decisions through Cyberwave Edge Core.

Hedon

Custom UGV

An emotionally reactive UGV that fuses camera, microphone, and biosignal streams into safe behavioral decisions, expressed as locomotion, head movement, and speech in real time. Runs entirely on a Raspberry Pi over ROS 2 and the Cyberwave SDK.

Napkin Folding with SO-101

Dual SO-101

A VLA-driven cloth manipulation system that automates napkin folding with dual SO-101 leader-follower arms. Teleop demonstrations are collected, cleaned, and used to train a SmolVLA policy for repeatable cloth handling.

Sandwich Bot

SO-101

Teleop demos teach a 450M-parameter SmolVLA model to make sandwiches autonomously from camera frames and language instructions. A mobile app turns it into a one-click remote action — the same primitive could feed pets or water plants from anywhere.

CareFlow

SO-101

A 6-DOF SO-101 arm enforces a two-phase safety loop on hospital wards: it QR-scans medicine boxes into patient bins, then only dispenses when the matching wristband is verified. The same pipeline runs in simulation and on real hardware.

Roamie

Principessa Robi (UGV Beast)

A UGV rover that watches over plants while their owner is away. Streams camera frames through the Cyberwave SDK, localises with ORB-SLAM3, and triggers a VLM-based Cyberwave AI workflow at each plant to assess its health.

Desky

SO-101

An SO-101 arm that identifies desk objects and places them where they belong. End-to-end stack covers hand-eye calibration, teleop and automated data collection, a flow-matching visuomotor policy, and real-world deployment.
