Cyberwave Python SDK

Making the physical world programmable.
Connect, control, and simulate any robot. The same code runs in simulation and on real hardware.

Cyberwave SDK — deploy any robot as a digital twin, in simulation and on real hardware

License Documentation Discord PyPI version PyPI Python versions Build


Cyberwave is an all-in-one platform for building and deploying intelligent physical AI agents. Connect a physical robot or sensor, test it in simulation, and run AI models; all through one Python SDK. This package is the official client.

Installation

pip install cyberwave

Optional features install via extras, e.g. cyberwave[camera] (video streaming), cyberwave[ml] (vision models), or cyberwave[zenoh] (edge data bus). See the installation docs for the full list.

Quick Start

Get an API key from your Cyberwave instance (Profile → API Tokens) and export it:

export CYBERWAVE_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"

Then create and control your first digital twin:

from cyberwave import Cyberwave

cw = Cyberwave()  # reads CYBERWAVE_API_KEY from the environment

# Create a digital twin from a catalog asset.
# Pin it to a specific twin and environment by passing their IDs (UUID or slug).
# Omit both and Cyberwave creates a "Quickstart Environment" for you automatically.
arm = cw.twin(
    "the-robot-studio/so101",
    twin_id="your-twin-uuid",                 # e.g. "acme/twins/arm-station-1"
    environment_id="your-environment-uuid",   # e.g. "acme/envs/production-floor"
)

# Place it in the scene (editor layout)
arm.edit_position(x=1.0, y=0.0, z=0.5)
arm.edit_rotation(yaw=90)  # degrees

# Move a joint by name
joint_names = arm.joints.list()
if joint_names:
    arm.set_joints({joint_names[0]: -0.2})  # radians
    print(arm.get_joints())

# Drive a locomotion twin in simulation
cw.affect("simulation")          # or cw.affect("live") for the real robot
rover = cw.twin("unitree/go2")
rover.move_forward(0.3)

cw.disconnect()

The same script targets real hardware by switching cw.affect("live"), no other changes.

Core Concepts

  • Twins — virtual representations of robots and sensors. You develop and test against a twin, then deploy to hardware with identical code. Instantiate any catalog asset with cw.twin("vendor/slug").
  • Environments — scenes your twins live in. Validate quickly in the browser-based Playground, or use MuJoCo for high-fidelity physics and RL.
  • Simulation vs. livecw.affect("simulation") and cw.affect("live") switch where commands and state go. The same code drives both.
  • Edge & cloud — stream camera/sensor data and run AI models on the edge or in the cloud, without managing the infrastructure in between.
