Request support for the Agilex Piper robotic arm

[yquanli]

Hi lerobot team! Appreciate your outstanding work!
PIPER is a new easy-to-use robotic arm launched by Agilex, which is being widely used in the research of robotic arm algorithms. Is it possible to add support for this robotic arm in lerobot/common/robots? The robotic arm has a complete and easy-to-use SDK, the link is as follows: https://github.com/agilexrobotics/piper_sdk
Thanks a lot!

Yep it will be great to do so. Or maybe we can achieve it together. Is there anyone interested in?

We have started this effort - #645, but need to update it with the latest robot API

I can help if I have access to the robot.

I have completed the relevant work. It's actually quite simple; you just need to refer to the code of robots like SO100 and write a code that inherits from the Robot abstract class. Additionally, you need to write a configuration class that inherits from RobotConfig. Note that after writing these, don't forget to import them at the top of the file when running scripts like record.py .
