I'm Miguel Villa Floran. I build robots and the silicon and firmware underneath them, from chips that fly in orbit to humanoids that learn whole-body control.

This past summer I did robotics research at Pantheon. Before that, at Dimensional, I worked on agentic robotics: an open-source operating system for commanding humanoids, quadrupeds, and drones in natural language.

At NVIDIA GEAR, I worked on humanoid whole-body control and co-authored SONIC, and at NVIDIA on chip-design agents and hardware infrastructure. At Cal Poly, I helped design CARP, an open-source chip now flying on the SAL-E CubeSat.

I am also a co-author of mjlab and an active contributor to DimOS.
