Canonical evidence claims
Claims are projected from authored tables. A dash remains an explicit missing value; it is never filled from a neighboring product or name match.
| Metric | Value | Class |
|---|---|---|
| Artifact kind | open-source end-to-end robot-learning library [software-r3] | robot-learning-runtime |
| Published data path | LeRobotDataset multimodal schema with remote streaming; 16K+ datasets and 2.2K+ contributors as of September 2025 [software-r3] | robot-learning-runtime |
| Distribution / access | open-source library and paper; public datasets and model implementations are supported [software-r3] | robot-learning-runtime |
| Execution topology | action planning may run on a separate machine and in parallel with low-level control [software-r3] | robot-learning-runtime |
| Input / output contract | shared motor middleware, dataset streaming, policy inference, and control execution [software-r3] | robot-learning-runtime |
| Published boundary | a reusable research/development stack, not a vendor certification that every policy supports every connected robot [software-r3] | robot-learning-runtime |
| Stated scope | low-cost manipulators, humanoid arms, hands, and mobile-manipulation platforms through extensible middleware [software-r3] | robot-learning-runtime |

What is not inferred
No fuzzy entity matching, adjacent-column borrowing, universal compatibility, commercial maturity, or checkpoint-to-product identity. Absence of a relation means unreviewed or unsupported here—not proven incompatibility.
