RAI 2.0 Latest
Latest

RAI 2.0 is a major milestone. We have rewritten it almost from scratch to provide a simple yet efficient way to build embodied agents.

RAI 2.0 introduces a number of new packages, a cleaner architecture, and a more unified approach to agent development. The framework is now easier to extend, more modular, and better aligned with modern AI workflows. This release brings significant improvements in ROS 2 integration, a redesigned Connector API, new agent types including ReAct and ASR/TTS agents, Open set detection, and a simulation and benchmarking suite to support evaluation.

The updated documentation at robotecai.github.io/rai provides comprehensive guidance on getting started, API usage, tutorials, and demos. It covers topics such as speech-to-speech interactions, simulation and benchmarking tools, and available extensions. The documentation also includes detailed instructions for setting up RAI in various forms, tracing, and vendor configurations as well as answers questions on what is RAI and is it a good for me.

RAI 2.0 supports advanced human-robot interaction through text, speech, and multimodal interfaces. More importantly, it enables autonomous long-term reasoning, allowing robots to operate and make decisions independently over extended periods. Agents built with RAI can maintain context and adapt their behavior based on evolving goals and environmental changes. This is made possible by unified handling of perception, memory, and action streams, supporting both reactive and deliberative behavior.

Below is the full changelog of what has changed since the last release. Thanks to everyone who contributed.

Summary of changes

This release brings a considerable refactoring effort to the RAI's agent system. RAI architecture now consists of two separate agents:

  • HMI agent (for communication, both voice and text)
  • RAI agent (for solving tasks/missions)
    The default workflow now is to add a task to the RAI agent via HMI such as text_hmi (streamlit app). The RAI Agent will pick up the task, report feedback on every iteration and return task's report at the very end (success or no).

We have also added a new, refactored version of the voice interface with much better voice detection system. Our ASR now supports (possibly) any recording device (no matter the sampling rate), as well as wake word using OpenWakeWord.

Additionally, other enhancements were introduced:

  • RAI What I See (Node for intelligent image capture, based on heuristics (did anything change since the last time?))
  • Extended tests
  • CI license checking
  • NoMaD transformer based navigation system
  • Overall docs improvement
  • Global configuration file (config.toml) where one can set the default model that will be used across RAI's modules
  • Local ASR (Whisper)
  • CI has been extended to ROS 2 Humble
  • Pydantic V2 compatibility with latest Langchain version
