We have all seen the pros do parkour moves. They are much more challenging for a robot to master no matter how agile it is. Light-Loco-Parkour is a humanoid parkour system with skills grown through Real2Sim2Real. It is a locomotion system that enables robots to move through complex environments. It can cross narrow plank bridges, climb stairs, speed vault over obstacles, and even navigate outdoor terrain.
This is wild. Humanoid parkour just leveled up. 🧗🤖
Light Origins’ 90 cm Lightbot 0 can climb, vault, and cross complex terrain with a single onboard depth policy—no external tracking, runtime motion reference, or scripted skill switching.

Lightbot 0 has 21 actuated joints. It weighs only 18.9kg. As the researchers explain, this robot runs:
a single recurrent policy onboard at 50 Hz from a chest-mounted depth camera, proprioception, and a velocity command—with no runtime reference, skill label, external tracking, or offboard state estimation.
