Struggling with your low point control? Hitting behind the ball and not getting that ball first, turf second? Try this simple drill out! Grab a towel and place roughly a hand width behind the ball. Work on getting your low point forward by not hitting the towel. Simple but effective drill for you to try 👊🏼

Here's a video of Bertie running, and a few other photos worth sharing. Thanks for reading through this thread, I want to do more of this where I explain all the work that goes into these models.

This is the power of YOLO, trained on a laptop for ~1 hour, with a Kaggle dataset. Oh, and just ~100 lines of Python. I can make a startup on this and it took me literally a couple of hours.

MIT ROBOT THREAD PERFORMS BRAIN SURGERY WITH PRECISION Neuroscience just leveled up. MIT built a magnetic thread robot that can slip through the brain’s delicate vessels to clear deadly clots without opening the skull. No scalpels, no invasive drilling—just control, precision, and futuristic tech guiding a thread where human hands can’t go. A real step toward safer, faster brain surgery. Medicine isn’t just healing anymore, it’s engineering miracles at the smallest scale. Source: the.blacklist.bureau

When Ghostty detects a password input prompt, it now changes the cursor to a lock and on macOS enables the secure input API. When the secure input API is enabled, we show a neat, animated icon that explains what's going on when clicked. Another example of native UI wins (imo). Secure Input is the macOS system API that prevents accessibility APIs from reading your keystrokes, so things like screen recording software and so on can't read your passwords. Other terminals on macOS support secure input. I think only iTerm also supports secure input on password detection. So as a disclaimer, I'm not trying to claim this as a huge innovation, I just think our implementation is nice. 😊

You pretrained a robot policy on millions of camera frames. Now you want to add a force sensor. Do you really have to retrain on everything from scratch? MuSe adds a force-torque sensor to a frozen vision-only policy using a tiny amount of contact data. - lifts contact-rich task success (peg insertion 60% to 87%, vase wiping 33% to 77%) - fuse the new sensor both early (shared token space) and late (cross-attention), train the policy as a world model that predicts future video, future force, and actions together, and replay old vision-only data with the force input masked to prevent forgetting. - adding new sensor modalities to pre-trained World Model can be cheap & improve performance significantly

hi all, excited to join! i'm building an expressive mini "shoggoth" robot which will eventually be hooked up to gpt4o realtime voice. i'm currently working on the low-level policies, which are trained in a mujoco simulation with RL. to delay working on raw-pixels for now, i trained a pose-estimation model using deeplabcut and triangulate the position in 3d space using the stereo cameras. eventually, i'll use gpt4o's tool calling capabilities to activate several of these policies (closed and open loop) based on the dialog flow! captions: manual actuation of the tentacle / 3d pose estimation / target design

Welcome to the official PathOn Robotics 'Testing Facility' (aka the robot gym). Also known as the corner of my basement right next to my gym. We've been running our custom sensor/software on the Go2 for our initial GTM. Bypassing the factory brain and injecting an enterprise-grade OS requires zero fancy office space—just a clear floor, a bright light, and absolute focus. Hyper capital-efficient build mode. Let's keep shipping.🤖🛠️

If you watch the latest Optimus dancing video in slow motion, you’ll notice that it’s not just dancing, but it’s hopping and balancing on one foot. Also, the string in the back isn’t even holding Tesla Bot up! This level of dynamic balance and control is EXTREMELY difficult to achieve for a humanoid robot. What Tesla is doing right now with Optimus is years ahead of what people realize.

So… the 1X NEO home robot is not actually autonomous. Behind the scenes, it’ll often be teleoperated by humans, meaning someone, somewhere, could literally remote-control a robot inside your living room. I wanted the dawn of embodied AI. Instead, I’m apparently paying $499/month for a robot avatar with a human pilot. It’s impressive tech. But also… kind of dystopian? A robot that looks alive, yet secretly puppeteered, the uncanny valley just got a new basement level. Feels less like the “post-labor future,” and more like we just outsourced physical presence itself.

Video diffusion models have strong implicit representations of 3D shape, material, and lighting, but controlling them with language is cumbersome, and control is critical for artists and animators. GenLit connects these implicit representations with a continuous 5D control signal describing the direction and intensity of a point light source. This enables single-image near-field relighting of an image using a video diffusion model. We use a ControlNet-like approach and show that, with a small amount of synthetic data, GenLit generalizes to complex real-world images. Given a single image and the 5D lighting signal, GenLit creates a video of a moving light source that is inside the scene. It moves around and behind scene objects, producing effects such as shading, cast shadows, secularities, and interreflections with a realism that is hard to obtain with traditional inverse rendering methods. GenLit shows that it is possible to get continuous control over implicit physical processes within a video model. I think this is just the beginning and promises to make such models much more practical for creators. Shrisha Bharadwaj will present today at SIGGRAPH Asia Room: S423/S424, Level 4 @ 13:50 on 15 of Dec.

Teaching robots how to paint! 💅🏼 This painting robot, for example, mimics human movements with precision to handle repetitive, and tiring tasks. A special device memorizes points in 3D space, which are then sent to the robot's control. The result? A robot that, after a single demonstration, can perform a given action. Keep in mind that it's taught as 'fixed'. 👨🏻‍🔧 That is, it will not be able to react to an anomaly or changing environment. But ultimately, with fewer workers available and many avoiding tough, dirty jobs, robots are helping industries stay efficient and safe. ♻️ RT to help 1 robot find a new workplace!
