GRID Docs | General Robotics

The contract every GRID robot implements — the method names and signatures a driver must provide, whether the robot is physical or simulated. A method listed here is a promise the interface makes; what a specific robot actually accepts, and which of these it leaves unimplemented, is on that robot’s own page under Robots.

Install

# Preinstalled in every GRID session workspace and in the Python environment the
# GRID CLI prepares when you run a program with `skill run`. Nothing to install.

Quickstart

from grid_nexus_client import make_robot

# make_robot() returns a RemoteRobot whose attributes resolve to the
# methods below, for whichever of these interfaces your robot implements.
robot = make_robot("<robot-name>")
robot.standUp()             # Quadruped
image = robot.getImage("front")   # Robot

# Ask a live robot what it actually exposes:
print(robot.session.methods_info())

# Subcomponents — sensors, arms, end effectors — nest the same way:
robot.left_arm.wrist_cam.getImage()

You reach these methods through make_robot in grid-nexus-client. The simulated implementations are AirGen robots and Isaac robots; values passed and returned are grid-types.
