ORA: open-weight DeepSeek model zero-shots real robot arms at $0.35 per task
JunGao33210520 · x · 2026-11-08
ORA (Open Robot-Use Agents) is an open harness powered by the open-weight DeepSeek V4.1-Flash that operates real robot arms from visual input alone — zero-shot, no VLA — while competing with frontier-model agents. It will be presented at CoRL 2026's Agentic Robotics Late-Breaking Results session (Nov 9, Poster #130), where the session listing titles it "Zero-Shot Solve Robot Tasks for $0.35", i.e. roughly $0.35 per task. Code and blog are public.
