I’m giving an agent control over Reachy Mini from Hugging Face and letting it understand and share spatial data via SPECS for Devs AR is the human interface for robotics and physical AI imo. It feels like absolute magic to interact with this, both in voice/agent and “puppeteering” mode. I’ll probably work on AR for either an arm (manipulation tasks) or some sort of drone (locomotion in 3D space) next… Project is fully open source btw: Thank you SensAI Hackademy for sending me the robot!

We might be solving the wrong problem in robotics. That’s what this makes clear. UMI → Universal Manipulation Interface A simple $400 gripper that lets you teach robots by demonstration. You hold it like a tool. Show the task. The robot learns. No teleoperation. No expensive hardware. No robot-specific data. Stanford open-sourced everything → hardware, code, datasets. What stands out to me is the bottleneck. Not algorithms. Data. Teleoperation → ~35 demos/hour UMI → ~111 demos/hour And the data transfers across robots → UR5, Franka, others. The design is surprisingly practical: → GoPro fisheye lens (155° FOV) + mirrors for depth → SLAM + IMU for precise 6DoF tracking → latency matching for dynamic tasks → diffusion policies for multimodal actions Then it scales. Cheng Chi takes this further with Sunday Robotics (with Tony Zhao). A $200 glove → deployed in 500+ homes → ~10 million real-world interactions. Not lab data. Real human behavior. Their robot learns dishes, laundry, espresso → with zero robot-specific data. This is where the shift becomes obvious. From training robots in controlled environments → to learning directly from humans at scale So here’s the real question: Will robotics be unlocked by better models… or by unlocking data? #ArtificialIntelligence #Robotics #AI #Innovation #FutureOfWork

Excited to share this demo from Over the Reality! Watch our Unitree Go2 robodog navigating our office while reconstructing the 3D space in real-time using the VGGT-based foundation vision model. This is a prime example of machine perception in action, turning raw RGB camera feeds into rich, detailed 3D maps! The robodog's RGB cam generates a dense, textured 3D reconstruction via VGGT from a few photograms, capturing nuances like object shapes and surfaces with impressive fidelity (main view). Compare that to the standard LiDAR system (top right), it's sparser, more point-cloud focused, lacking the visual richness. Vision models are closing the gap fast! What's powering this? VGGT, a cutting-edge foundation model for 3D perception, trained on datasets orders of magnitude smaller than our massive OVER 3D maps dataset. Imagine the leap when we apply OVER's scale to VGGT-like transformer based architectures, denser reconstructions, better generalization, revolutionary for robotics, machine perception & AR! Stay tuned for more breakthroughs at the intersection of AI, robotics, and DePIN. We're building the future of Physical AI and Spatial Computing at Over the Reality 🌐 What do you think, ready for robodogs in your world? Drop your thoughts! 🤖🌐

3d visual positioning experiment -- look at the alignment between the 3d mesh and the live camera view. Truly feels magical -- like x-ray vision. Workflow: 1. Scanned a street in 15 mins w/ xgrids 2. Localized against that scan at night, in real-time, while sitting in a car The xgrids scanner (w/ rgb + lidar) is perfect to build maps for humans (3d gaussian splats). Then multiset ai makes it easy to build machine-readable maps for AR and robotics to figure out exactly where they are in 3d space with cm-level accuracy.

i don't think people realize what's happening in Chinese robotics. this one manufacturer might be the most impressive AND most concerning company on Earth right now let me explain... Unitree Robotics sells a humanoid robot for $5,900. their robot dog costs $1,600 (Boston Dynamics charges $74,500 for theirs for context). you can literally buy these on Amazon today. so obviously the first question is: how is that even possible? the answer starts with a guy who couldn't pass his English exam. Wang Xingxing grew up in Zhejiang province. for his master's thesis, he decided to build a quadruped robot. budget: about $3,000. for context, $3,000 for this kinda robot is nothing. off-the-shelf servo motors alone would've eaten that twice over. so Wang did the only thing he could: he designed and machined every single component himself. motors, joints, controllers, the frame. all of it. the resulting robot was janky and imperfect. but it worked. and the video went viral globally. after graduating he joined DJI. but he quit after two months, and this is 2016, when DJI was arguably the hottest hardware company in China. walking away from that with no money to start a robotics company is a... specific kind of stubborn. he launches Unitree with $280K from a single angel investor. tiny office in Hangzhou. 50 square meters. but the money runs out fast. he can't make payroll for three years. the company almost dies in 2017. but emergency government funding arrives with days to spare. he survives, barely, and keeps building. this is where it gets really fascinating IMO. this founding constraint, building everything yourself because you literally cannot afford to buy parts, never went away. even after funding rounds started landing. even after revenue kicked in. it just became the company's permanent DNA. Unitree now manufactures 90%+ of its core components in-house. motors, reducers, controllers, encoders, LiDAR, etc the founder's $3,000 robot thesis ended up being an architectural decision that turned out to be structurally superior. think about what that means in practice. Boston Dynamics needs a better motor? they negotiate with a supplier, wait on lead times, qualify the part. but when Unitree needs one, they design theirs internally and have a new version in production within weeks. that gap compounds every cycle. Unitree shipped three separate humanoid platforms in 18 months. Figure AI has shipped one. Tesla has shipped zero commercially. the results are getting hard to dismiss. 23,700 robot dogs shipped in 2024 (roughly 70% of the entire global market). 7,000+ humanoids deployed. over 600 industrial sites running their quadrupeds. $140M+ revenue, profitable every year since 2020. for perspective: no Western humanoid competitor is profitable. not one. OK. now here's where the "most concerning" part of this starts... if you watched the DJI story unfold, you already recognize the shape. affordable Chinese hardware quietly saturates global markets. years later, the national security questions arrive, after the install base is already massive. drones, then EVs, then AI. now robots. Unitree is running this exact playbook in real time. in April 2025, researchers found an undocumented backdoor in their Go1 robot. a remote tunnel letting anyone control the robot and stream its camera feed. default password: pi/123. 1,919 vulnerable units exposed globally. including machines at MIT, Princeton, and Carnegie Mellon. but it gets worse. every Unitree robot shares the same hardcoded encryption key. encrypt the word "unitree" and you get root access to any of them. one compromised robot can spread to every Unitree robot in Bluetooth range automatically. a literal robot botnet. the G1 quietly transmits sensor data to Chinese servers every five minutes. audio, video, GPS, LiDAR spatial mapping, with no notification, no consent, no opt-out. PLA footage has shown Go2 robots with mounted weapons. Ukrainian forces literally deployed weaponized units on the actual frontline. and every member of the bipartisan House China Committee signed a letter calling for Unitree's military company designation. Wang signed a 2022 pledge alongside Boston Dynamics not to weaponize robots. but pledges don't survive contact with shipping hardware to open markets. and under China's 2025 rules restricting military-related speech, Unitree couldn't publicly confirm PLA use even if they wanted to. 50,000+ of these robots are now deployed globally. some at institutions that probably should've asked harder questions before connecting them to their networks. the security stuff is real and people should know about it. but i also think it's important not to let that overshadow what's actually been built here. a 35-year-old who failed his English exam created a robotics company that's outshipping and outpricing every Western competitor while being the only profitable humanoid maker on Earth. most impressive and most concerning company in the world right now.
