Robots ❤ Groq — LLM-Powered Robots Are Very Fast Now
TheMachinaScript for Robots 0.2.2 patch brought some serious speed upgrade to DIY homemade robots.
Before diving into it
If you are just getting to know it — MachinaScript For Robots is a dynamic set of tools and a LLM-based language for AIs to control arduino-like robots. It was designed to empower anyone in the creation of their own DIY robots right now. It is super easy to get started.
Checkout the github repo and a medium post introducing it better here.
Robots + Groq = Lots Of Fun.
Well, Groq did it. LPUs are now one of the most mindblowing creations from the 2020’s decade due to its extremely fast inference for LLMs. The initiative from the former Google chip guru and TPU inventor, Jonathan Ross, expanded the horizons for these models by many light years.
But what happens when we achieve the power to generate text faster than a biological brain? Possibilities of very fast reiteration opens a new gate for proper “thoughts” to be formed. Response action at near-real time completely redefines the way we build robots.
Introducing MACHINA2B
A Symphony of Thought and Action.
Meet MACHINA2B unit with support for the Groq API— a milestone in the mission to make sophisticated robotics accessible to everyone right from your garage.
It is a continuous self-prompting robotic unit that can scan the world by taking pictures and reading sensors, with the structure of actions, skills, and movements from the previous Machina units. This new iteration harnesses the synergy between multimodal vision LLMs and the innovative Groq inference API.
MACHINA2B embodies a loop of perception and action that simulates the flow of human thought.
Through the integration of a vision systems and a serial to analogic signals parser, MACHINA2B interprets visual data and crafts responses in near real-time, enabling machines to perform complex tasks with elegance and some level of precision — a fantastic achievement for the given stage of the technology.
Groq Support Added To MACHINA1 Unit
The MACHINA1 unit have also been updated to support Groq, being the current fastest Machina avaliable. Control it with voice commands and modify as much as you want to fit your designs.
