Xiaomi open-sources Robotics-1 and its real-robot post-training pipeline
Xiaomi has open-sourced Robotics-1, a robotics model the company says was pre-trained on more than 100,000 hours of UMI data and post-trained with over 10,000 hours of cross-embodiment data. The announcement says the release covers the pipeline from real-robot post-training through the model, which makes the implementation details more important than the headline training totals alone. The official X post does not specify the license, repository contents, supported robot embodiments, hardware requirements or evaluation results. Those details will determine whether outside teams can reproduce the workflow, adapt it to their platforms and compare the model fairly with other open robotics systems.
Xiaomi open-sources Robotics-1 and its real-robot post-training pipeline
Xiaomi has open-sourced Robotics-1. The company says it used more than 100,000 hours of UMI data for pre-training and over 10,000 hours of cross-embodiment data for post-training. Xiaomi also says the release includes the pipeline from real-robot post-training through the model.
Key takeaway
The useful part of Xiaomi’s Robotics-1 release is the promised real-robot post-training pipeline alongside the disclosed training scale.
What happened
Xiaomi’s official technology account says Robotics-1 is now open source and reports more than 100,000 hours of UMI data in pre-training.
The same announcement reports over 10,000 hours of cross-embodiment post-training data and says the release covers the pipeline from real-robot post-training to the model.
Evidence

Why it matters
Robotics teams need the training and adaptation workflow, not only a model artifact, to reproduce results across different hardware.
Limits and uncertainties
The official post does not specify the license, repository contents, supported embodiments, hardware requirements or evaluation results.
Practical implications
Teams can inspect whether Xiaomi published enough of the post-training workflow to adapt Robotics-1 to their own robot platforms.
What to watch
The repository, license, evaluation code and documentation for the claimed complete post-training pipeline.
