3 teams just placed at @base Batches 003 Robotics Track hosted by @virtuals_io. All 3 get $50k from the Virtuals Fund and a stage at Base Batches Finals in San Francisco this month. Most people don't know what any of them actually build. Here's the breakdown. Champion: @opengotchi Every AI agent lives inside a chat window. Opengotchi gives it a body. Pocket-sized hardware running GotchiOS, an OS built for agents first and humans second. Hand your agent a skill file and it writes its own apps to the device. Real use cases: order Red Bull with 3 button presses, book your Uber, monitor your Claude Code build status, pay onchain via Base x402. Fully open source. Won Monad Multiverse before Base Batches. (no token) Second: @shadowcleague Tele-operated robot combat built as a sports entertainment product. Two Unitree humanoid robots. Human operators control them in real-time. The fighter's skill determines the outcome. No AI making decisions in the ring. They showed up with 2 working robots and a validated format. Not a prototype pitch. Think UFC framing but the fighters are steel and the operators stay uninjured. $SCL Third: @Vader_AI_ Most robot teams collect one type of training data. Vader collects three. First-person human video. Physics simulation with full ground-truth state. Remote teleoperation feeding human intent directly into hardware. Robots can't act in the real world without all three. Most teams use one and wonder why their models fail outside the lab. $VADER ➜ @opengotchi: a body for the agent era ➜ @shadowcleague: a new sport with massive potential ➜ @Vader_AI_: the data layer physical AI actually needs All 3 present in San Francisco late May. Coinbase Ventures and Base Ecosystem Fund will be in the room. Which team closes real capital on that stage? Keep an eye on Virtuals Robotics!

See you at Base Demo Day SF! 🌁

Base is for Robotics 🦾
