China is scaling humanoid robotics at an insane speed.... Super realistic robots from Ex-Robots are now reportedly entering mass production 🤖 - Not prototypes. - Not lab experiments. - Actual production. The biggest shift happening in robotics isn’t just intelligence anymore. It’s making robots look and behave socially acceptable around humans. And honestly… we’re reaching the point where some people may not immediately realize they’re talking to a robot. Exciting future or uncomfortable future?

Metal Printing of Helical Coil Using Robotic Arm and... Turntable This project involved the use of AiSync to control both the Aibuild KUKA robotic arm and an external-axis turntable equipped with a Meltio DED head. The coordinated motion enabled the support-free printing of a helical coil in approximately 12 hours. The process met the tight dimensional tolerances typically required in industrial applications.

At some point when reviewing plays, the league should... consider adding a speed threshold for anything involving the element of time. When you slow plays down to 1/100th the speed, it distorts what actually happened and makes it look like, in this case, Cooks possessed the ball for seconds prior to losing it. The game is not played in slow motion or frame by frame. For a catch: A) Secure control of the ball ✅ B) Two feet down in bounds ✅ C) After (a) and (b) have been fulfilled, clearly performs any act common to the game (e.g., extend the ball forward, take an additional step, tuck the ball away and turn upfield, or avoid or ward off an opponent), or he maintains control of the ball long enough to do so. C is where there is a judgement needed since A and B are clearly met. Now consider this note to the rule: If a player, who satisfied (a) and (b), but has not satisfied (c), contacts the ground and loses control of the ball, it is an incomplete pass if the ball hits the ground before he regains control, or if he regains control out of bounds. Because Cooks did lose control of the ball when he contacted the ground and the ball never contacted the ground, it was ruled an interception by Denver.show more

Someone built ultrasonic scanning on a tiny microcontroller and... it’s seriously impressive Using Arduino, an ultrasonic sensor + a servo motor turns into a mini radar system: → scans surroundings in a sweep → detects objects in real time → measures distance with sound waves → builds a simple spatial map As the sensor rotates, it continuously emits ultrasonic pulses When those waves hit an object, they bounce back and the time delay is used to calculate distance That data is then plotted into a live radar-style visualization, just like what you’d see in real systems No expensive hardware No complex setup Just smart use of simple components. What makes it even cooler: → runs on a tiny microcontroller → low power, low cost → easy to build and customize → great intro to embedded systems + robotics This is the kind of project that shows: you don’t need massive compute to build something powerful Small device. Smart sensing. Real engineeringshow more
