The full story
GBody, which took third place at a Y Combinator hackathon, is an MCP server that lets Claude control a HiWonder six-axis robot arm through tool calls: move, grip, record, observe and retry. Claude is the brain and Gemini provides vision.
Rather than solving the kinematics by hand, it measures the real world: move the arm, see what happened, save the result and let the AI adjust. Built by Anish Kataria and Jake Roggenbuck.
