About This Repo#
Microduck runs learned movement policies. Its companion microduck_rl documents MuJoCo training, retraining and policy export for the onboard runtime. Local training requires a CUDA GPU; the training documentation also describes Hugging Face Jobs. This is software, not a free robot build kit. The official site listed a $399 introductory pre-order before taxes and shipping when checked on 2026-10-25.
Documentary Scope#
Documentary visuals use Pollen Robotics’ published robot photo/film and GitHub documentation; no independent hardware test.
Narration#
This little robot duck can learn new moves—and its brain is open source. Microduck runs learned movement policies. Its companion training repo uses MuJoCo, lets you retrain behaviors, and exports policies for the robot. Training needs a CUDA GPU.
