Well, a humanoid robot can move on two legs... or wheels, depending on the environment it faces. AGIBOT (Zhiyuan) from Shanghai revealed that their new generation of humanoid robot "Nezha" can autonomously switch to two wheels for fast movement when walking on two legs. Imagine that in the airport hall, when he walks down the stairs and sees a fallen object not far away, it can transform into a wheeled robot and move quickly to pick it up. Or in elderly care, when it see an elderly person fall, it can quickly move and help the elderly person up, and quickly provide medical supplies to the caregiver.show more

Yes, but can it curtsy?! 😉 🤖 In South... Korea, The Princess Royal and Sir Tim Laurence visited a Smart Mobility Laboratory, where they were shown demonstrations of a humanoid robot, a dual-arm robot and a motion capture system. Korea University and University College London signed a cooperation MoU in 2023 and now operate a joint fund to support science research projects.show more

Don't you have a haptic chair for VR gaming?... Don't worry, your friendly humanoid robot can help you with that! In a recent research paper from the University of Colorado, researchers experimented with using a humanoid robot to literally grab your chair and move it during VR racing sessions to make the game more realistic. And from the users' feedback, it seemed to work. I guess they took inspiration from those viral videos, where in some low-budget arcades, the owner literally moved the station with his own hands. I can't wait for the fail videos caused by this technology... Full video is available here: #VirtualReality #VR #technologyshow more

Here’s a good example of AI + robotics taking... a job… My lawn guy lost a part of his business to this robot. But it also creates an opportunity for him. He could buy these robots, deploy them at his yards and significantly scale his business.show more

A Southwest Airlines flight from Oakland to San Diego... was delayed 62 minutes Thursday after an unusual passenger triggered extra safety checks — a 4-foot, 70-pound humanoid robot named “Bebop.” Owned by Elite Event Robotics, Bebop was given its own seat after its case was too heavy to check following a Bay Area event. Crew later moved the robot from an aisle seat, then confiscated its lithium battery after discovering it exceeded airline safety limits for fire risk. Bebop eventually made it to San Diego battery-free.show more

We’ve seen humanoid robots walk around for a while,... but when will they actually help with useful tasks in daily life? The challenge here is the diversity and complexity of real-world scenes. Our new work tackles this problem via 3D visuomotor policy learning. Using data from only 1 scene, our Improved 3D Diffusion Policy (iDP3) enables a full-sized humanoid robot to autonomously pick&place objects, pour water, and wipe tables, in the wild open world. (and all these skills are useful, right?) Web: Fully open-sourced code:show more

Securing our future starts with securing the resources that... power it. Silver is now considered a safe-haven, critical industrial metal, essential to the technologies and infrastructure that drive modern economies. Across the G7, countries are shifting away from “not in my backyard” policies and recognizing the need for mineral development. At Hycroft, we are advancing one of the world’s largest precious metals deposits, positioned to help meet this growing global demand. $HYMCshow more
