Tools & SDKs
Developer resources and programming interfaces.
Tools & SDKs are what developers use to talk to AxisRobotics, teach robots new skills, and connect AI brains to real or simulated robots.
Think of them as the toolbox for building robot intelligence.
- Tools: software helpers that make work easier
- SDK (Software Development Kit): a bundle of tools, rules, and examples
- API: a doorway that lets programs talk to each other
Together, they let developers build, test, and run robot intelligence.
AxisRobotics tools focus on three main things:
- Teaching robots
- Training AI models
- Running robots safely
What they do:
- Create virtual robots
- Test movements
- Practice tasks safely
Why they matter:
- No real robot needed at first
- Faster testing
- No damage risk
Typical features:
- Robot physics
- Object interaction
- Replay of movements
Simulation tools are the robot’s training ground.
What they do:
- Record robot movements
- Capture sensor data
- Store success and failure cases
Data can come from simulations, human teleoperation, and real robots.
AxisRobotics emphasizes high quality data, human guided demonstrations, and shared datasets.
Good data = smart robots.
What they do:
- Allow humans to control robots remotely
- Let robots learn from human motion
- Capture real-time data
Often browser based, low setup, and easy to use.
Humans show robots how to move.
What they do:
- Train AI models on collected data
- Improve robot decision making
- Update the robot brain
They handle learning cycles, performance evaluation, and continuous improvement.
This is where learning becomes intelligence.
What they do:
- Connect AI models, controllers, and real robot hardware
- Ensure smooth movement
- Enforce safe speed and force
- Provide reliable execution
Thinking turns into action here.
An API is like a menu you order from, instead of entering the kitchen.
APIs allow developers to upload data, start training, fetch models, and send commands to robots.
Common API actions:
- submit_data
- train_model
- load_model
- execute_task
APIs connect tools without chaos.
Libraries provide ready made code, common robot functions, and standard behavior modules.
Examples:
- Motion control helpers
- Sensor processing
- Task templates
Developers reuse libraries, build faster, and make fewer mistakes.
An AxisRobotics SDK typically includes:
- APIs
- Libraries
- Examples
- Documentation
- Templates
With an SDK, developers can start quickly, follow best practices, and avoid confusion.
SDK = full starter kit.
- Choose a robot or simulation
- Collect data (human or automated)
- Upload data to the platform
- Train the AI model
- Test in simulation
- Deploy to real robot
- Collect feedback
- Improve and repeat
This loop keeps getting better over time.
AxisRobotics tools support robotics developers, AI researchers, students, startups, and hardware builders.
The system is designed to be open and accessible.
Most robotics stacks are closed, hard to use, and lock you into one robot.
AxisRobotics tools:
- Focus on shared learning
- Support many robot bodies
- Encourage community contributions
- Improve over time
Tools grow smarter as the community grows.
- Pen and paper → Data tools
- School → Simulation
- Teachers → Humans
- Brain → AI models
- Muscles → Robot hardware
AxisRobotics tools and SDKs give developers everything they need to collect data, train AI models, and safely run intelligent robots in simulation and reality.
