VLAHardware: MaxRoadmap scaffold
GR00T VLA pick-and-place
Language-conditioned manipulation with NVIDIA GR00T N1.5.

Lab runtime / VLAOK / VIS-01
GR00T VLA pick-and-place runs against the same observable edge stack used for testing and deployment.
This entry is a roadmap scaffold, not a finished demo. Its description records intended scope; the linked repository is the source of truth for current code.
About this demo
Speak the task ('pick up the red block, put it in the bowl'); a vision-language-action policy plans the grasp, executes the trajectory, and reports success. Runs on Jetson Thor-class (e.g., T4000/T5000) compute with TensorRT-optimized inference. Reference implementation: SIGRobotics' Matcha Bot, embodied-AI hackathon winner.
