Valentimer

Valen-timer is a fast-paced web game where players pick AI digital twins, get matched by preferences, and plan date routes—scoring on simulated success Social Twin Trainer: Train AI twins for virtual speed-dating by planning convo flows and venues; matches happen via preference graphs, success via engagement sims—all as agentic decision pipelines for scalable social robotics training. Core Architecture Vultr VM as central backend (required): FastAPI/Node for AI logic, sim state, user sessions; React frontend for twin picker/planner UI (public demo URL). Digital twins as AI agents (no physical robots); "sim" via graph-based convo/venue env or Canvas viz.

GeminiFleet

## What it does GeminiFleet runs a physics-based warehouse simulation where autonomous robots pick up and deliver items. A fleet manager controls robot behavior through natural language — no code, no config files. **Example commands:** - "Make robots more cautious" → speed drops, safety margins increase - "Speed things up, we're behind schedule" → max speed, tighter margins - "Focus on the north side" → robots prioritize north-zone tasks Google Gemini interprets each command with full context (fleet status, delivery counts, collision stats) and generates precise parameter updates that modify robot behavior in real-time. ## How it works **PyBullet Physics Engine** — Real rigid-body simulation with collision detection. Warehouse environment with walls, shelves, pickup/dropoff zones, and 4-6 autonomous robots navigating with priority-based collision avoidance. **Gemini 2.0 Flash Policy Engine** — Translates natural language into 7 tunable parameters: speed, safety margin, congestion response, task selection strategy, cooperation mode, zone preference, and concurrency. Values are clamped to safe ranges. **Live Web Dashboard** — Real-time 2D visualization via WebSocket at 10Hz. Tracks robot positions, planned paths, carrying status, and delivery statistics. Collapsible panels for robot status and active policy display. ## Key Innovation Robot fleet behavior is parameterized into meaningful dimensions that an LLM can reliably map from ambiguous human instructions. Operational expertise — not programming skill — drives fleet optimization. ## Deployment Runs entirely on **Vultr non-GPU VMs** via Docker. PyBullet operates in CPU-only mode. Single `docker compose up` deploys the full simulation + dashboard + Gemini chat. ## Built with - **PyBullet** — Bullet Physics simulation - **Google Gemini 2.0 Flash** — NL→policy translation - **FastAPI + WebSocket** — Real-time state streaming - **Docker** — Vultr deployment

AgroMind - Autonomous Swarm vs Locust Plague

THE PROBLEM: FOOD SECURITY UNDER ATTACK Locust plagues are one of the most destructive agricultural threats in history, capable of consuming thousands of hectares of crops in hours. Traditional monitoring is slow, manual, and reactive. By the time a swarm is visible, it's often too late. THE SOLUTION: AGROMIND AgroMind is an AI-first autonomous defense system designed to intercept locust swarms before they land. We leverage NVIDIA Isaac Sim to simulate thousands of drones in a "Digital Twin" environment, training them to coordinate flight paths and containment strategies safely. HOW IT WORKS: The Brain (Vultr & Gemini 3): We use Vultr's high-performance cloud to process satellite and thermal telemetry. When an anomaly is detected, Google Gemini 1.5 Pro analyzes the data to confirm the biological signature of a locust swarm, distinguishing it from other pests or weather patterns. The Swarm (NVIDIA Isaac Sim): Instead of risking physical hardware immediately, we simulate the interception in Isaac Sim. The drones use reinforcement learning to form a perimeter, calculating the optimal "containment net" to divert or neutralize the swarm using directed sonic waves or bio-pesticides (simulated). Real-Time Deployment: The system operates autonomously. The "Commander" (User) receives a strategic report and authorizes the mission via a Streamlit Dashboard hosted on Vultr, watching the telemetry in real-time.

PetGuard

According to the Animal Humane Society, cats are crepuscular, meaning their activity peaks during dawn and dusk. Anecdotal evidence supports this, with many owners reporting their cats being awake late into the night or very early in the morning. While humans attempt to get some shuteye, this leads to an unsupervised environment where our feline friends may be up to some tomfoolery… Enter PetGuard, the Gemini-powered robotic assistant that keeps your pet safe and out of trouble! We have used Vector, the robot developed by Anki, which has been augmented with Gemini to track your cat, scan the environment for potential hazards and use auditory cues to divert its attention. Using a virtual environment, we have simulated a virtual instance of Vector, a virtual instance of a cat that mimics its behavior, as well as the most common household hazards the pets are prone to. Using this simulation we have finetuned our robot assistant to ensure that it is as robust as possible, finally giving pet owners the peace of mind that they deserve!

Valen-timer

Valen-timer is a fast-paced web game where players select AI digital twins, get matched via preference graphs, and plan virtual dates—scoring on simulated success. Beyond entertainment, it trains AI systems in human connection through gameplay. Gameplay: Players choose from diverse AI twins with unique personalities. A matching algorithm analyzes compatibility across traits and interests. Players rapidly plan date routes—selecting venues and conversation flows against the clock. Coffee shops for intimacy, galleries for culture, arcades for playfulness. Each choice impacts success. Real-Time Engagement Tracking: The platform highlights exactly what works and fails during interactions: Small Talk Analysis shows: Ice breaker effectiveness ("How's your day?" scores 2/10 vs. "Ever hiked coastal trails?" at 8/10) Question balance (avoiding interrogation mode) Humor landing rates Shared interest discovery moments Topic transition smoothness Deep Conversation Metrics track: Vulnerability matching and emotional reciprocity Value alignment reveals Empathy response quality Venue-Specific Performance: Coffee shops excel for intimate exchanges, activity venues spike during competition but drop if conversation suffers. Micro-Moment Highlights: Remembering earlier details (+15% engagement), perfect compliment timing, or awkward transitions (-25% engagement). Post-date breakdowns show: "Your pottery hobby question increased engagement 40%. Switching topics without transition dropped engagement 25%." The system pinpoints exact peaks and valleys. AI Training Impact: Every date trains agentic AI systems in social intelligence—emotional responses, preference inference, adaptive strategies. This scales social robotics training for customer service bots, therapeutic companions, and educational tutors. Valen-timer merges gaming with AI research—players enjoy speed-dating while training machines to understand human connection.

GoferAI - Semantic VLA RAG Layer

Gofer AI is a human-to-robot learning platform that transforms everyday demonstration videos into robot-executable intelligence. Instead of manually programming robotic behavior through conventional reinforcement learning, users can record a task using a phone or GoPro. Our system extracts keyframes using OpenCV, identifies task phases, objects, and human motion patterns using multimodal Gemini models, and converts demonstrations into structured semantic memory through a Video RAG architecture. These demonstrations are embedded, tagged, and stored for retrieval, allowing the system to reason over prior tasks and reuse knowledge. The extracted trajectories are converted into canonical action representations, then replayed and augmented in simulation using Isaac Lab and Real2Render2Real for scalable data generation. This pipeline enables behavior cloning, demo-initialized reinforcement learning, and diffusion-based policy training. The result is a robot-ready policy capable of sim-to-real transfer. Gofer AI bridges the gap between human intent and autonomous execution—turning video into intelligence.
