# [Product] Product roadmap
:::info
:bulb:This template is a product roadmap template that helps you finish the product roadmap.
:::
- Simulation project might need to be paused for 1-2 months as its key ingredient would be the data engine.
- Daniel is considering the use of digital twins, especially for self-driving applications.
- Digital twins are a key goal for simulating and improving robot-environment interactions.
- Current robotics work is labor-intensive, particularly in physical interaction with the environment.
- Locomotion does not require highly accurate environments but needs robust physics and joint dynamics simulation (e.g., using Mujoco).
- Data Engine collects and stores data from robots (lidar, sensors, positions) for visualization and further use.
- Human movement data can be processed and transferred to robots via the data engine.
- Simulation efforts are focused on locomotion.
- Emphasis on understanding how each system component works together.
- Considering using AI models to handle and follow movement, though this approach is still under evaluation.
- Exploring ways to enable continuous learning and stay updated on current research trends.
- "Ikea for robots" concept: users connect to a cloud-based data engine, with hardware as a means to access software.
- Focus on maximizing software capabilities and minimizing hardware dependency (e.g., 3D printed parts, easy replacement).
- Robots are sold cheaply, possibly open-source, to drive distribution.
- Marketing challenge: positioning robots as an alternative to popular consumer electronics (e.g., PS5).
- 3D printed parts can be self-printed or purchased at a small markup.
- Software is offered as a free SaaS product; initial focus is on distribution and assembling documentation.
- Long-term vision includes selling cloud services and intellectual property.
- Aspiration for a "ChatGPT moment" in robotics, where software capabilities dramatically improve.
- Vision for Asimov includes easy assembly (screwdriver, instructional videos), community support (Discord), and affordable pricing (under $10k).
- Robots will have an API for coding, developer mode, and factory reset options.
- Proprietary models for vision, speech, and text, with training available on the cloud.
- Ability to search and replay specific robot experiences via text queries, similar to app debugging tools.
- Focus on the simplest possible robot embodiment to maximize accessibility and utility.
