Description
After seeing so many demos on web on how Astra works with sim2real, I decided to build my own with dual arm SO101. My physical setup is exactly as in this sim.The code is under Apache-2.0 and available here https://github.com/torayeff/robogym. I would appreciate any comments and feedback.

Could you build this?
Partial Although the web interface and basic physics can be visualized using modern tools, creating a functional dual-arm robotics sim2real environment requires specialized robotics kinematics and physical simulation tuning.
What it would actually take: The architecture involves Next.js/Three.js with WebAssembly-compiled physics engines (such as MuJoCo Wasm, Bullet, or Isaac Gym exports) along with precise URDF/MJCF robot arm kinematics and trajectory planning algorithms. Getting accurate inverse kinematics, contact dynamics, and sim2real transfer parity requires robotics control engineering and physical hardware calibration.
