"Reachy" is a weird name for a toy that has no arm or hand capable of interacting with its environment.
- phh 1y agoSo, my brain defaulted to "people are smart, so it makes sense", so it understood it as "it's the toy you keep within reach". But if you look at Pollen Robotics product, you see they have a "Reachy", which can indeed move, and has arms to interact with its environment. So yeah, it's a weird name. It reaches your heart through the feeling it communicates to you with its antennas?

- Finnucane 1y agoReachy by Hugging Face sounds like something I expect is going to emerge explosively from one's abdomen.

- kelseyfrog 1y agoIt's an easy bet that people will outfit the thing with arms, legs, wheels, tentacles - you name it. Assuming it can be modded, it will be modded.
- Dusseldorf 1y agoPresumably it's a reference to the disruption claims in the marketing--a giant reach.
