Robots Navigate Difficult Terrain for Search and Reconnaissance

La capacidad para moverse por terrenos difíciles de los robots está mejorando mucho, siendo ya capaces de hacer travesías por zonas que hace poco resultarían inaccesibles.

Autonomous Driving AI Mistakes Require Human Supervision Always
By
–
Drives me everywhere. Hasn't made a mistake like that in thousands of miles. It makes stupider mistakes, like getting in the wrong lane. At least on HW3. On HW4 I have newer version and it fixed many of those mistakes. But this is why it is supervised. You gotta watch it.

Humanoid Robots: Limited Capabilities and Overstated Promises
By

“…These machines are still limited in their abilities, but tele-operated demos can make them seem more capable, and proponents are promising big things. Elon Musk suggested that humanoids could outnumber humans by 2040—a suggestion probably best taken with a truckload of salt.” https://t.co/39ss2ud4ze

In-house Expertise Requirements for Robotics and AI Systems
By
–
most small shops and academic shops don't have the in-house all-rounded expertise to rewrite all parts of the ecosystem they need. 1x or matic are different, you have world class well rounded experts who can write navigation, IK, slam, etc. in-house.

ROS ecosystem value exceeds middleware architecture
By
–
ROS is just a pub/sub in the same way Python is just a programming language.
The biggest benefit of both is their ecosystem, not their architecture.
Rewriting the middleware? then you gotta build an entirely new ecosystem.
that's why most small robotics projects and shops still -

Small Models, Robotics and Synthetic Data Innovation Discussion

We had a surprisingly nerdy chat with Zach Seward on small-models, robotics and synthetic data while doing the opening of the huge @WebSummit conference (70k+ participants 🤯)
— Thomas Wolf (@Thom_Wolf) 15 novembre 2024
It turned into a fascinating exchange – moving out from the "next frontier model is what you need"… https://t.co/ApjFn1N8zMWe had a surprisingly nerdy chat with Zach Seward on small-models, robotics and synthetic data while doing the opening of the huge @WebSummit conference (70k+ participants ) It turned into a fascinating exchange – moving out from the "next frontier model is what you need"

π’s Bimanual Task Evaluation: Boxes, Paper Towels, and Metrics
By

Hats off to π for also evaluating on other very interesting bimanual long-horizon tasks like folding cardboard boxes and refilling a roll of paper towels. It’s also refreshing to see continuous-valued success metrics and examples of failure modes in the last section of the post. https://t.co/tsq4aEEU75
