MIT researchers taught a robot dog to perceive a 3D world using Neural Volumetric Memory (NVM). This technique lets the bot climb stairs, step over gaps & run autonomously w/a single neural network. Paper: Video: w/UC San Diego

Barrier-grid animations are a clever way to create a moving picture that doesn’t actually move — w/o electronics. MIT's "FabObscura" software helps you produce bolder designs for these displays, which can be attached to objects in homes, stores, & more:

To automate time-consuming tasks like household chores, robots must be precise & robust for very specific environments. With MIT’s “RialTo” method, users can scan their surroundings w/their phone so a robot can practice in a digital twin environment. This novel real-to-sim-to-real approach allows the machines to train much faster & safer than they would in the real world:

For roboticists, one challenge towers above the others: there isn’t enough data. To accelerate the deployment of intelligent robots in the real world, MIT CSAIL’s "LucidSim" uses genAI & physics engines to create diverse & realistic virtual training grounds for robots. W/o any real-world data, their robot achieved expert-level performance in difficult tasks:
