Summary of Changes

Hello @xpfgg, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request focuses on enhancing the clarity and accuracy of the project's documentation by updating key terminology and providing more detailed explanations of the system's components and operational flow. The changes primarily involve renaming the core concept from 'Vision-Language-Action' to 'Language-Guided Manipulation' and refining descriptions of how the Gemini model and kinematics module function within the robot arm system.

Highlights

• Terminology Update: The core terminology for the robot arm system has been updated from 'Vision-Language-Action (VLA)' to 'Language-Guided Manipulation' throughout the README.
• System Description Enhancement: The introductory description of the system has been expanded to provide more detail on how Gemini is utilized for zero-shot detection and pointing, and the role of the kinematics module in calculating joint angles.
• Conceptual Walkthrough Refinements: Minor clarifications were made within the 'Conceptual Walkthrough' section, including a more precise description of the kinematics module, renaming the main control loop, and correcting the camera observation method from 'live feed' to 'static image'.

Changelog

• README.md
  • Updated the introductory description of the project, changing 'Vision-Language-Action (VLA)' to 'Language-Guided Manipulation' and elaborating on Gemini's role and the kinematics module.
  • Adjusted wording in the conceptual walkthrough's introduction.
  • Clarified the description of the kinematics module.
  • Renamed the main loop section from 'The Main Loop (Vision-Language-Action)' to 'The Vision-Guided Control Loop'.
  • Corrected the 'Observe' step to state that the camera captures a static image instead of a live feed.

Code Review

This pull request updates the terminology and descriptions in the README.md file to be more accurate and descriptive. The change from 'Vision-Language-Action (VLA)' to 'Language-Guided Manipulation' is reflected throughout the document. The new descriptions provide more technical detail about the system's operation. I've made two minor suggestions to improve grammar and clarity in the updated text.

[gemini-code-assist]

There appears to be a grammatical error in this sentence. The word 'through' seems extraneous and makes the sentence awkward. Removing it would improve readability.
