Building Physical AI, in the open
Insights, product updates, and deep dives from the Wendy Labs team as we build WendyOS — the open-source operating system for deploying AI to robots, drones, and edge devices.
Build Better Products with Insights & Inspiration.
Practical insights and real stories to guide your product from vision to reality.
Swift for Robots, Drones, and Edge AI
Swift isn't just for iOS. With WendyOS you can scaffold a full-stack Swift app with a React frontend and a Hummingbird backend, then deploy it to a Raspberry Pi 5 or NVIDIA Jetson with one command. Here's why Swift is a serious language for robotics and edge AI.

Getting Started with Intel RealSense on WendyOS: Stream Color, IR, and Depth in Python
Walk through every file in the RealSense template app — a Python FastAPI server that streams color, dual IR, and colorized depth from an Intel RealSense D415 over MJPEG, with a React control panel on top.

We Vibe Coded a Full YOLOv8 App to an NVIDIA Jetson with Claude Code - No Human Code Written
We gave Claude Code one instruction and the wendy CLI documentation. It built a complete real-time object detection application with a React frontend, FastAPI backend, and deployed it to an NVIDIA Jetson - without a developer writing a single line of code.

MIT Robotics Student vs. NVIDIA Jetson: From 3.5 Hours of Frustration to 3 Minutes with WendyOS
We invited Claire Wang, an MIT Electrical Engineering and Robotics student, to run an experiment comparing the traditional NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano setup process against WendyOS. The results were staggering.
