I think including history in robot foundation models is such an interesting direction. For example: from HAMLET: "swap the two cubes" A great example of a very simple task for a human that a robot can't do. if there was a robot arc-agi this would be in it.

ELON MUSK: "In the future, the robots will make so many robots, that they will actually saturate all human needs, meaning you won't be able to even think of something to ask the robot for at a certain point, like there will be such an abundance of goods and services. There'll be more robots than people. I think everyone on earth is going to have one humanoid robot because you would want a robot to watch over your kids, take care of your pet, take care of elderly parents. I'm very optimistic about the future. I think we're headed for a future of amazing abundance, which is very cool. Definitely we are in the most interesting time in history."

Teleoperating a robot is hard. This means that when performing a robot task via teleoperation — say, to collect examples for training a robot policy — it’s almost unavoidably slower than you would like, below either the capabilities of the human expert on their own or the robot performing the task. Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way to fix this? Unfortunately, it’s harder than it looks. You can’t just execute faster, as this alters the distribution of environment states the policy will encounter. Nadun Ranawaka Arachchige and Zhenyang Chen propose Speed-Adaptive Imitation Learning (SAIL), which adds error-adaptive guidance, adapts execution speed according to task structure, predicts controller-invariant action targets to ensure robustness across execution speeds, and explicitly models delays from, for example, sensor latency. Watch episode #59 of RoboPapers, with Michael Cho - Rbt/Acc and Chris Paxton to learn more!

Elon Musk: If you have billions of humanoid robots — and I think there will be — everyone on Earth is going to have one and want one. Assuming it’s very safe, who wouldn’t want a robot to watch over your kids, take care of your pets, and help with daily life? There just aren’t enough young people to take care of the old people. Taking care of elderly parents is difficult and expensive. A robot that could care for and protect an elderly parent would be an amazing thing to have. If you had a robot that could take care of your elderly parents, protect them, and be there 24/7, that would be great. That would be a truly life-changing technology for families around the world. I’m very optimistic about the future. I think we’re headed toward a future of amazing abundance — and that’s very cool. We are living in the most interesting time in history. On aging — I haven’t put much time into it yet, but I do think it’s a very solvable problem. When we figure out what causes aging, I think we’ll find it’s incredibly obvious. It’s not subtle.

ELON MUSK: "We’ll probably unveil Optimus Gen 3 in a few months. I think it’s going to be quite surprising to people it’s an incredibly capable robot We are replacing the SX line in Fremont with a million-unit-per-year line for Optimus Because it is a completely new supply chain, there’s really nothing from existing supply chains that exists in Optimus; everything is designed from physics first principles The normal S-curve of manufacturing ramp will be longer for Optimus than it is for products that have at least some portion of an existing supply chain The production rate will be proportionate to the least lucky, least confident part of the entire supply chain Optimus 3 will be a general-purpose robot that can learn by observing human behavior. You can demonstrate a task, verbally describe it, or show it a video, and it will be able to perform that task. It’s going to be a very capable robot."

NAVIAI-I3, a more robust humanoid robot, was launched by the Zhejiang Humanoid Robotics Innovation Center. Standing 1.8 meters tall, it can run like a human and walk on various terrains. This humanoid robot appears to be primarily designed for specialized industrial tasks, such as security patrols in underground parking lots. They previously launched the lightweight bipedal NVAI-2 and a wheeled humanoid robot. The bipedal robot is used in manufacturing operations, while the wheeled humanoid robot is used for unstructured, flexible tasks such as warehouse sorting, supermarket shelving, and office cleaning. We filmed this demonstration at the World Robot Conference; you can see it in the comments section.

Tired of teleoperation? One human video → 1,000s of robot demos. (📍GitHub ) Scaling Robot Data Without Dynamics Simulation or Robot Hardware Real2Render2Real (R2R2R) is a new way to scale robot data without physics simulation or hardware. You take a phone scan + a single monocular human demo. It tracks the motion, renders photorealistic scenes, and generates diverse, robot-agnostic trajectories ready for training. > No teleop, no sim, no robot, just a phone and a video > Train VLA models and diffusion policies directly on the output > Supports multiple robot embodiments with kinematic consistency > 1000s of demos in 1/27 the time of real-world collection Thank you, Max Fu, for sharing!! Project: Paper: Code coming soon: It shows that with the right pipeline, you can scale robot learning data without touching a robot. One of the most interesting directions in scalable robotics today. —— Weekly robotics and AI insights. Subscribe free:

🚀 Galbot just released AstraBrain-WBC 0.5, the world’s first humanoid robot cerebellum foundation model. Trained on 20,000 hours of human motion data, it validates a Scaling Law for robot motion control and demonstrates zero-shot execution of unseen motions on real humanoids. The era of robot control foundation models is getting closer.

The robot is used to inspect the walls of ships. 🚢 The Magnet Crawler introduced by the University of Bremen is a lightweight and compact climbing robot for magnetic surfaces. The robot has two magnetic wheels driven by geared motors and an elastic tail to improve stability. In the front part of the robot, there is a miniature wireless camera. The robot is remotely teleoperated & the video signal from the camera is displayed to the operator on a portable screen. Let's wait and perhaps the robot will become more autonomous over time. Big fan of robots that make the world a safer place for humans.

Open-source robot arm meets hand tracking [📍GitHub below] It is designed with an industrial mindset but built as a 3D-printed desktop system. PAROL6 paired with a LEAP Motion controller is a nice example of how accessible robot teleoperation has become. • Hand motion is streamed to the robot at 100 Hz via UDP • A pneumatic gripper is controlled by simple fist open and close gestures • The entire robot stack is open source, from mechanics to control software Combine that with low-latency hand tracking and you get a very practical platform for learning manipulation, teleoperation, and human-robot interfaces. This kind of setup is great for experimentation, teleop, data collection, and teaching robots by demonstration All without proprietary hardware or locked software.

XPENG's next-gen IRON robot effectively crossed the uncanny valley, leading many to believe it was a human in a suit. In a follow-up event to prove it was a robot, He Xiaopeng had its leg skin cut open in front of a live audience. The robot then walked off the stage.

One of my favorite works in the "robot learning from human videos" space that I have seen lately. This is because it offers a really coherent and unique way to represent robot skills without a lot of the downsides we see from estimation-based approaches.

The First “Killer Robot” ever seen. Mechanical Man (1921) is an Italian science fiction film from the silent era. It is an interesting and rare film. It prominently features a robot as it's primary antagonist, or at least as a part of the primary antagonist. The robot is controlled remotely by a nefarious operator. At the end of the film she is defeated when she is separated from the remote control. While this movie may have the first killer robot on film. The debate on the first movie robot is a difficult one to put to rest. If the definition of a robot is stretched much earlier movies feature some kind of artificially intelligent machine. There are also a few lost serials and films which featured some kind of robotic creature from the 1910s, I have found a source I am investigating for these films.

Just a little taste of the Robohacks hackathon happening now at Y Combinator in San Francisco. This is only two of the teams. The first is a team building a robot for an AirBnb on Mars. The second built a system that 3D prints new tools for the robot to do new work on Mars. Both demonstrate why I love builders so much. Dreaming of a new world and learning together how to build for a new robot none of them have used before.

In my first week at Generalist, I trained a robot to pour liquids using GEN-1 🤖💧 I wanted to challenge the robot with a non-rigid manipulation task, so liquid felt like the perfect choice. The task involved: - unscrewing the bottle cap - pouring liquid into espresso glasses - rebalancing uneven pours Best of all, the robot was able to complete the task fully autonomously 3 times in a row (out of 3)! Pour-fect 😉 Excited for the journey ahead and grateful to be building alongside such an incredible team!
