Microduck: A 1.3B Param R2-D2 Running in Browser
TinfoilTricorn · x · 2026-08-30
Microduck is an open-source, hackable droid project. The author trained a 1.3M parameter LLM to output emotions, which are then fed into a Rust-based synthesizer to generate R2-D2-like sounds procedurally without audio files. The physics simulation and walking policies run entirely in the browser via WASM.
