Summary
According to a post on X by @XRoboHub, the OpenRoboKit team has open-sourced three robotics toolkits. RoboKit covers motion optimization and simulation, RetargetingKit maps human motion to robot hands and humanoids, and GraspKit generates grasps, trains policies and deploys them on hardware. The release also includes a RoboSkills package that gives AI coding agents tools for running simulation experiments. These details come from the post and have not been independently checked by VQV.

What happened
XRoboHub reports that the OpenRoboKit team open-sourced RoboKit for motion optimization and simulation, RetargetingKit for mapping human motion to robot hands and humanoids, and GraspKit for generating grasps, training policies and deploying them on hardware.

Why it matters
Robotics developers can use these open-source tools across several steps, from motion optimization and simulation to grasp generation, policy training and hardware deployment. The RoboSkills package is aimed at AI coding agents, so it may make agent-driven simulation experiments easier to set up. Teams interested in this work should review the released code directly, since the source snippet does not give further details.
