HomeRobot is an open-source robotics stack from Meta AI for mobile manipulation tasks on low-cost hardware like the Hello Robot Stretch. It supports the Open Vocabulary Mobile Manipulation (OVMM) task, providing simulation, perception integrations, and real-robot control tooling.

Use cases

  • run open vocabulary mobile manipulation experiments on a Stretch robot
  • simulate pick-and-place tasks in Habitat before deploying to hardware
  • participate in the HomeRobot OVMM challenge
  • explore unknown environments and find objects with a mobile manipulator
  • integrate perception models like Detic or Grounded-SAM with a robot stack
  • research embodied AI navigation and manipulation policies

When to choose

  • you have or plan to buy a Hello Robot Stretch for manipulation research
  • you need a benchmarked baseline for OVMM-style tasks
  • you want simulation-to-real workflows for mobile manipulation
  • you are entering the CVPR HomeRobot challenge

When to avoid

  • you need industrial-grade or safety-certified robot software
  • you work with manipulators other than Stretch without porting effort
  • you need a production robotics deployment rather than a research stack
  • you lack a GPU workstation alongside the robot
