Make your code
move a real robot.
We want humanoids to do useful work. We are starting with a practical course, a lab and a team: a place to learn how to take code to a real humanoid robot.
Online · Spanish and English cohorts

01 / THE FIRST STEP
From Python to humanoid control.
We are designing an intensive course in reinforcement learning and sim-to-real control. An assessed code project, individual feedback and supervised testing.

Train a reproducible policy
Set up the environment, run an RL experiment and document the configuration and results.
Evaluate before deploying
Compare your policy with a baseline in simulation. Investigate failures, limitations and changes.
Bring your code to a real robot
Bring your project to a supervised robot session and compare behaviour in simulation with real movement.
The curriculum, team, lab and robot access are in preparation.

Questions that matter.
When does it start?
We’re aiming to start in January 2027. We’ll announce the exact dates and open enrolment once they are confirmed.
Do I need to buy a robot or a GPU?
We do not plan to require you to buy a robot. We are designing shared hardware and compute access; the exact computer and tool requirements will be confirmed with the curriculum.
Can I see the robot move with my code in person?
We want every participant to join us at the lab near Dénia and enjoy seeing a real robot move using the policy they’ve built. These shared sessions will be supervised. Attending in person is optional, and you can complete the course online.
What will I build?
A reproducible reinforcement learning project: code, training configuration and a technical report comparing your policy with a simulation baseline. You’ll receive individual feedback and prepare it for a supervised robot session.
Who is the first cohort for?
Software engineers familiar with Python and Linux. We’re starting from Spain and also welcome participants from other countries. There will be separate Spanish and English cohorts, and you can complete the course online.
What does joining the interest list mean?
You’ll receive course details and a notification when enrolment opens. Joining is free and nonbinding: it is not a purchase and does not reserve a place.
