The recent update from @openmind_agi has made it increasingly clear to the outside world that a change is taking place: the robotics industry is switching from the era of standalone machines to the networked era. In the past, robots operated independently, like offline tools; OpenMind's direction is to gradually transform them into network members that can collaborate, learn, and upgrade.

@openmind_agi has launched not just a single OS, identity system, or hardware extension, but a capability layer that spans the entire ecosystem. The core idea is to enable Bots to have networking abilities, sharing capabilities, and collaborative skills, rather than just remaining at the level of being proactive. This path is equivalent to building a high-speed channel for Bots to enter the internet, allowing them to work together under the same logic.

The launch of BrainPack further improves this channel. Its positioning is similar to a Bots' portable brain, equipped with BrainPack itself, NVIDIA Thor, multiple models of Unitree's Bots, and OM1's learning quota. On the surface, it appears to be a set, but in essence, it provides the infrastructure for Bots to quickly acquire autonomous capabilities. After installing BrainPack, Unitree's Bots gain abilities such as vision, mobility, real-time video transmission, as well as behavior judgments like automatic recharging and privacy processing. Its effect is similar to how Waymo loads AI onto cars, except the application target has shifted from vehicles to a broader range of Bots. In the future, it will also be opened to more manufacturers, allowing Bots from different brands to share this capability structure.

It is important to note that OpenMind's focus is not on hardware speed, but on network capability and intelligent collaboration. They aim to make Bots into internet nodes, capable of networking, collaboration, and self-upgrading, rather than being limited to a standalone state. The presentation at the Korea meetup also proves that multi-machine collaboration has moved from concept to implementation.

In this line of thought, other manufacturers are still pursuing stronger motors or faster performance, while OpenMind chooses to first address the issue of how Bots can think together. Through OM1, each Bot can participate as a network participant to share skills within the system, without having to train from scratch. If the trend continues to advance at the current pace, it is foreseeable that Bots will no longer remain in future visions, but will be practically loaded as network nodes.
