Their trial-&-error method is called "Planning for Robots via Code for Continuous Constraint Satisfaction" (PRoC3S). It tests long-horizon plans to ensure they satisfy all constraints & enables a robot to perform diverse tasks, like writing individual letters, drawing a star, &

AI-powered border surveillance towers and autonomous drones
By

D’abord, des tours de surveillance équipées d’IA le long de la frontière américano-mexicaine. Ces tours pouvaient distinguer les humains, les animaux et les véhicules.
Ensuite, leurs systèmes autonomes : Le drone Ghost pouvait voler plus de 15 heures, et l’Anvil traquait et -

AmbiRobotics Achieves 500 Sorts Per Hour Speed Milestone
By
–
In 2024, @AmbiRobotics “increased avg speed to 500 sorts per hour and brought its sort accuracy to 99.6%. For context, in 2022 their machines were at 355 sorts per hour and in 2023 they were at 410.”

Robotics Survey: Integrating Deep Learning and Explicit Engineering Models
By
–
This is an excellent robotics survey paper contrasting deep learning “implicit” models (data driven) with the long history of “explicit” models (Good Old Fashioned Engineering) and calling for methods that integrate both: @BekrisKostas https://

EMP Shielding More Cost-Effective Than Drone Deployment
By
–
It’s cheaper to shield drone electronics than to deploy these things. EMP defenses aren’t really feasible.

Drones Shift Military Balance Toward Offensive Capabilities
By
–
Drones tip the balance of power towards offense, much like nuclear did. It may help to think of them as “autonomous bullets.”

Comparing π_0 Robot Training Data to Qwen LLM Training Scale
By

Thanks Kevin! Using your conversion rate, that works out to π_0 trained on 1 person-year of robot data vs. Qwen trained on 120,000 person-years of LLM data:
