AI in robotics gets all the attention right now,... but sometimes the most interesting work is very practical. Viet built a small vision system that counts potatoes on a conveyor belt. No giant dataset. No huge model. Just a clear problem and a smart setup. He used Ultralytics’ ObjectCounter, trained a tiny YOLO11 nano model, and because there was no potato dataset, he annotated a single frame with SAM 2 and trained from that. One frame. Still works across the whole video. It is a good reminder that useful AI in industry often looks like this. Focused. Lightweight. Solves a real task. If you work in manufacturing or robotics, these small systems are usually the fastest wins. They save time, reduce errors, and do not need massive infrastructure. Nice work, Viet.

In a deeply embarrassing development, potholes have appeared on... the newly inaugurated Mumbai-Pune Missing Link project within just two months of its launch, raising serious questions about the quality and durability of the ambitious infrastructure project. A viral video shared on Instagram showed two large potholes near the expansion joint of the cable-stayed bridge on the 13.3-kilometre stretch, triggering widespread outrage among citizens and commuters. The Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) confirmed the incident, attributing the damage to heavy rainfall, and claimed that repair work was completed on priority after the contractor and officials were immediately directed to fix the potholes. Inaugurated by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Maharashtra Day in the presence of Deputy CMs Eknath Shinde and Sunetra Pawar, the Missing Link was designed to bypass Bhor Ghat and reduce Mumbai-Pune travel time by 25 to 30 minutes. However, the early appearance of potholes has left citizens questioning whether crores of rupees of public money have been well spent.

📍 Vega City, Bannerghatta Road Take a look at... the condition of this road. At first glance, it may appear to be a normal black patch, but in reality, the surface is completely damaged, filled with loose stones, mud, uneven patches, and crater-like potholes. This has turned what should be a safe public road into a serious hazard for commuters. The question every taxpayer is asking is: where is the tax money going? Citizens pay road tax, property tax, fuel tax, and various other charges, yet basic road infrastructure continues to deteriorate. During the rainy season, these roads get flooded and resemble small lakes, making travel dangerous and difficult. When there is no rain, the situation is hardly any better, as loose gravel, broken surfaces, and potholes pose risks to motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians alike. Bengaluru is known as India's technology capital, but many of its roads continue to reflect poor planning, delayed maintenance, and a lack of accountability. Residents are forced to navigate damaged roads every day while infrastructure projects and promises of development continue to dominate headlines. Do the lives and safety of citizens not matter? How many accidents, vehicle damages, and daily inconveniences must people endure before permanent solutions are implemented? Roads are not a luxury they are a basic necessity, and taxpayers deserve infrastructure that is safe, reliable, and maintained throughout the year. #bangalore #bengaluru #bannerghattaroad Greater Bengaluru Authority Maheshwar Rao.M, IAS DK Shivakumar ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice CP Bengaluru ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಆಯುಕ್ತ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು Joint CP, Traffic, Bengaluru alok kumar DGP KARNATAKA ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ Karnataka State Police DGP KARNATAKA S.

Brand Bengaluru’ or Off-Road Adventure? Residents Slam Authorities Over... Broken Roads At Hosa Road, near Rayasandra Circle, right in front of Mahaveer Ranches, the condition of the road has been appalling for over a month now. The entire stretch is completely broken, riddled with deep potholes, muddy patches, and craters big enough to swallow a scooter. For residents, office-goers, school buses and even ambulances, this has turned into a daily obstacle course rather than a public road. We keep hearing tall claims about “Brand Bengaluru” and the city’s transformation under the current leadership, yet basic infrastructure like roads continues to remain neglected for weeks at a time. Despite repeated complaints from citizens, no visible action has been taken to repair this stretch or even to provide a temporary fix to prevent further deterioration. It’s understandable that infrastructure projects take time, but leaving a key connecting road in this state for more than a months shows a serious gap between promises and ground reality. Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar and the civic authorities often talk about turning Bengaluru into a world-class city perhaps they could start by ensuring at least a drivable road for its taxpayers. “Brand Bengaluru,” really? If this is what branding looks like, maybe we should start advertising it as an off-road adventure park or a free test track for SUVs. #bangalore #bengaluru #roads #hosaroad Maheshwar Rao.M, IAS @GBAoffic @bbmpoffic DK Shivakumar Siddaramaiah P C Mohan Tejasvi Surya Prathap Simha Shobha Karandlaje ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice Joint CP, Traffic, Bengaluru CP Bengaluru ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಆಯುಕ್ತ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು DGP KARNATAKA S.

From Highway to Mud Pit: Uttara Kannada–Sirsi Road Turns... Into Slush Nightmare Look at the condition of this road in Karnataka this is the Uttara Kannada Sirsi road. Thanks to our MLA, MP, and the state government for this worst kind of maintenance. What should have been a proper, motorable road has now turned into a muddy stretch filled with slush and deep potholes. This Uttara Kannada Sirsi road has become a nightmare for the public. Even buses are unable to cross smoothly, and bikers are struggling in the middle of the slush, risking accidents at every moment. Many vehicles are simply turning back because no one wants to get stuck or damage their vehicles. Local residents, daily commuters, school children, and emergency services are all suffering because of this pathetic condition. Where is the road? Is this what people pay taxes for? This is not just poor maintenance this is complete negligence. Authorities make big promises about development and infrastructure, but the ground reality on the Uttara Kannada Sirsi road tells a completely different story. Basic infrastructure like roads should be a priority, not an afterthought. The concerned officials and elected representatives must take responsibility immediately instead of ignoring the hardships faced by the people. The public deserves safe and proper roads, not this endless stretch of mud and inconvenience. #banalore #bengaluru #sirsi #uttarkannada 112 Uttara Kannada Deo UttaraKannada Ramalinga Reddy SP Karwar DK Shivakumar Siddaramaiah alok kumar DGP KARNATAKA ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ Karnataka State Police S.

The current state of roads in Bangalore, the Silicon... Valley of India, is nothing short of alarming. Despite citizens paying hefty road taxes, the city’s infrastructure, particularly its roads, is riddled with massive potholes and craters, making daily commuting a nightmare. The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), the governing body responsible for maintaining the city's infrastructure, seems to be in a state of perpetual slumber, unable to address this critical issue due to sheer negligence and inefficiency. Is this truly the vision we had for "Brand Bengaluru"? A city that aspires to be a global tech hub, yet struggles with basic road maintenance? Instead of smooth, well-maintained streets that reflect the city's reputation as a leading IT capital, we have roads that resemble the surface of the moon. Such a situation not only tarnishes the city's image but also poses serious safety hazards to its residents, leading to accidents and injuries. The question that arises is: how long will the authorities remain indifferent to the plight of the people? Bengaluru deserves better, and it’s high time that proper accountability and immediate action are enforced to restore the city’s infrastructure to its deserved standard. #bangalore #bengaluru #road ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice @BBMPCOMM ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice CP Bengaluru ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಆಯುಕ್ತ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು Joint CP, Traffic, Bengaluru S.
