MetaHuman: keeping an intention through its results
Full Auto can continue existing work and request relevant memory; live trials expose the remaining initiative gap. Queue and on-demand model changes reduce avoidable overhead.
MetaHuman OS
The rebuilt body: a new face, measured standing and powered continuity
New photographs show Ainekio's revised face and shell. Ground repair, final-pass Stand verification and connection-loss handling improve the body-control foundation.

Learning from real walking: trials, feedback and a live training loop
Ainekio now records ordinary walking, compares learned Walk and Run policies, and exposes learning history. Physical trials show modest tracking gains with important limits.
Legs & gaitFaster body reactions and cleaner recovery in MetaHuman OS
A dedicated one-call tip/shake workflow, motion-aware event classification, completed-work recovery repairs and connected-recipient admission keep body events tied to real work.

MetaHuman update: trained 2B specialists and clearer task outcomes
Trained 2B Intent and Task models, experimental 9B autonomy, monitor performance repairs, and live tests of camera freshness and conversational memory.

Listening to the servos: feedback wiring and a rebuilt chassis
Twelve modified servos, a CD74HC4067 multiplexer, measured-position tools and revised chassis parts give Ainekio a way to check what its joints actually did.

A more connected companion: agency, memory and one voice
How Active Operator, model categories, attributed memory and Desire review connect to task execution, with Persona now responsible for the spoken reply.
MetaHuman OSTesting 9B learning for autonomy and personality
Two small remote LoRA diagnostics tested autonomy and conversational personality, including actual serving comparisons. Neither candidate qualified for deployment.
MetaHuman OS
Giving movement a goal and evidence of arrival
MetaHuman's new locomotion contract connects distance, turn, approach, follow and visual goals to measured progress, with signed lateral control on the P4.
Firmware & connections
More expressive motion and clearer self-leveling controls
Revised Walk, Run, Crawl, Crab and seated Wave, plus a level reference, per-leg feedback and stationary gyro calibration in Body Control.

The body can start a conversation
Wake, tilt and rapid-movement events now travel from Body Control to a dedicated MetaHuman workflow, with editable detection settings and model-selected reactions.
MetaHuman OS
Video on the robot, firmware updates over Wi-Fi
Body Control gains SD video recording and downloads, staged P4 firmware updates, robot logs and a measured short Wi-Fi recovery run.

Teaching the Task model what to say and what to move
Two new 0.8B Task LoRA candidates address speech/action confusion. Both improve aggregate scores; neither replaces the deployed adapter after qualification.
MetaHuman OSStartup, self-leveling and the real leg geometry
A staged startup rise, saved self-leveling controls, a 566 g build report and a geometry calculator, with installed firmware separated from loaded-motion results.

A Lighter Rebuild After the Standing Test
The printed chassis could not stand on its MG90 servos. The next iteration keeps those servos, removes weight, replaces the battery bank and revises the legs.

Steering, Sensing and Keeping the Robot Connected
Continuous steering, camera profiles, recognition interfaces and an IMU estimator have progressed. Live balance control and sustained wireless reliability still need work.
