InHandPlus Watch01 × MicroDuck
No controller.
Just a wrist.
Watch01 turns your wrist into the first wearable controller for MicroDuck — tilt to steer, flick to pick, drop your arm and it stops.
Ships when your duck does. Korea & US.
Shown in simulation — hardware arriving December.
Not affiliated with Hugging Face / Pollen Robotics.
InHandPlus How it works
Three gestures. That's all.
in simulationTilt to steer
Your wrist angle is the joystick. Lean in to walk, lean sideways to turn.
in simulationFlick to pick
One snap of the wrist triggers the duck's ground pick.
in simulationDrop to stop
Lower your arm — the duck stands down. Raising it resumes. No buttons, no pairing dance: it talks to the duck through the same open JSON-RPC interface the duck ships with.
InHandPlus The hardware
Meet the watch
Watch01
An Android smartwatch with a wrist camera and motion sensing — the same hardware line our data business runs on, now pointed at a duck. See the camera module on the strap? That's what point-to-fetch will look through.
- OS
- Android-based
- Connectivity
- Wi-Fi + Bluetooth LE
- Motion
- 3-axis accelerometer — the gesture engine runs on-device
- Camera
- Wrist-view camera on the strap
- Speaks
- MicroDuck's open JSON-RPC API, directly
Charging contacts and the sensor window on the back — it's a working device we've shipped to hospitals and welfare centres, not a concept.
Everything in the film above is simulation. The watch is not — gesture control runs on physical Watch01 hardware today.

InHandPlus Next layer
Point-to-fetch: in development, in the open
We're building the next layer in simulation right now: point your watch camera at a sock, and the duck goes, picks it up, and drops it in the basket.
You watched it happen in the film above — in sim, choreographed, honestly labeled. Turning that into closed-loop autonomy on real hardware is the work we're doing in public between now and December.
Waitlist members get first access to test point-to-fetch on real hardware.

Fair questions
Is this official MicroDuck gear?
No — independent accessory. It speaks the duck's public, documented API. Not affiliated with Hugging Face or Pollen Robotics.
When can I buy it?
We open sales to the waitlist after we've verified control on real hardware in December. No pre-payment, no deposit.
Everything in the film is simulation?
Yes, and labeled as such. The watch is real — gesture control is running on physical Watch01 hardware today. The duck side runs in the official open-source simulator until hardware ships.
Price?
Announced at sales open.
MicroDuck is a product of Pollen Robotics / Hugging Face. InHandPlus is not affiliated with either — Watch01 is an independent accessory speaking the duck's public API.
