The most practical Boston Dynamics robot right now probably isn’t humanoid. It’s a truck-unloading robot called “Stretch”, which is already operational with DHL (the logistics company has a deal for 1,000 of these to unload trailers). For DHL employees, moving 50lb boxes for hours on end in 100-degree trailers... is a huge injury risk. DHL has already trained 100 remote operators and working with more to learn how to operate Stretch, which is made up of three main pieces: ▫️Base: Size of a pallet with wheels. ▫️Arm: For manipulation with a vacuum gripper with suction cups that can carry up to 50lbs. ▫️Perception mast: A visual system that recognizes different box sizes and shapes, which informs the AI algos what objects to grab and move. Can’t dance but still pretty useful.show more

🇦🇪 BREAKING: UAE’s EDGE Group has unveiled the HT-100, a next-generation unmanned helicopter drone designed to operate where traditional aircraft can’t. Built for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, and logistics, the HT-100 can: ▫️ Stay airborne for up to 6 hours ▫️ Carry ~60 kg payload ▫️ Operate in all terrain, day/night, and harsh weather ▫️ Fly up to ~600 km range autonomously This is essentially a pilotless helicopter replacing manned missions, delivering long endurance presence in complex battlefields and remote zones. A major step toward the future of fully autonomous air operations.

This is mind blowing to me. This isn’t the future, this is literally happening right now. Figure is a California based company who has built a humanoid robot that is competing with a human neck and neck. Polymarket has 57% the robot runs for 200 straight hours 😳

ELON: THINK OF TESLA AS THE WORLD’S LARGEST SEMI-SENTIENT ROBOT COMPANY “With Tesla Autopilot or full self-driving, we're effectively creating the most advanced practical AI for navigating the real world. You can always think of Tesla as the world's biggest robot company or semi-sentient robot company. The car is kind of a robot on four wheels. So then, well, you know, we could probably take that same technology and put it in a humanoid robot and have that robot be useful.” Source: Interview with the Wall Street Journal, December 2021

Boston Dynamics has released a new video about humanoid robot hands. "Grippers are one of the most intricate parts of a humanoid robot, packed with actuation and sensing; they need to be durable enough to handle tough jobs, but precise enough to handle fragile items. Our engineers share how the Atlas gripper has evolved as our manipulation capabilities expand and the principles that will guide future iterations."

🚨 BREAKING: Hyundai Worldwide to deploy tens of thousands of robots! Hyundai is scaling up its robotics strategy with a major investment in Boston Dynamics ' robotic platforms. The company plans to deploy tens of thousands of units — including the Atlas humanoid, Spot quadruped, and Stretch trailer-unloading robots—across its manufacturing and logistics operations in the coming years. Spot is already in use at Hyundai’s facilities, performing industrial inspection and predictive maintenance tasks. Atlas, Boston Dynamics’ bipedal robot, is next in line for factory deployment, aimed at addressing physically demanding and repetitive jobs. Beyond deployment, Hyundai will support Boston Dynamics’ growth by integrating the automaker’s manufacturing capabilities to boost robot production. The move is part of Hyundai’s broader ambition to lead in robotics and “physical AI”. That's so cool to see the scale-up phase with humanoids. Looking forward to seeing Atlas live in Boston this month. 🔥

On Running created a wild new spray-on shoe. The process is called LightSpray and was inspired by glue guns. The method is a game-changer for footwear manufacturing, per NYT: ▫️It takes 3 minutes to finish the upper part of the shoe (see video) vs. 3 hours with stitching ▫️A single person can operate the machine vs. 100 people on a normal shoe assembly line (and only has 7 parts vs. ~150 to 200) ▫️”Rather than being put together by patternmakers, it is created using parametric design principles, and computational engineering.” How? A robot arm sprays “a single semi-translucent synthetic monofilament almost a mile long” on to a shoe mold to finish the upper (which is then “heat-fused to a foam rubber and carbon fibre sole”). The shoe is very light at 170 grams and has 75% less environmental impact than a normal shoe-making process because: ▫️It can be made near the final selling destination (instead of in Asia and shipped around the world) ▫️There is very little filament waste and the material is a thermoplastic (which can be melted down and re-used after the shoe is done) The lace-less (and form-fitting) shoe is officially called Cloudboom Strike LS and has already proven itself: Kenyan runner Hellen Obiri won the 2024 Boston Marathon wearing them (time = 2:22:37). Obiri will be wearing them at Paris 2024 Olympics, too. “It happened in 1979 with Nike Air Tech and in 1982 with the Air Force 1,” writes NYT’s Vanessa Friedman on the history of shoe innovation. “It happened with the Adidas Yeezys in 2015. And it happened with the Nike Vaporfly and the introduction of carbon plates in 2017.” The LightSpray will be commercially available in the Fall for $300+. That’s pricey AF but I’ll prob get a pair for my long distance…300 meter walks to Starbucks. *** Full NYT link: Making of YouTube video from ON:

Changing a light bulb with a robot! 💡 Researchers at the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials developed a gripper that can handle complex manipulation tasks like bulb and bolt installation. It has three fingers with nine degrees of freedom (9 DoF), allowing precise control. Each finger moves using a special linkage system that enables flexible motion. The gripper can grasp objects of different shapes and adjust their positions accurately. Tests showed that it can lift up to 12 kg and apply a fingertip force of 40 N with high precision. Complex manipulation can be handled by robots! 🦾

Changing a light bulb with a robot! 💡 Researchers at the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials developed a gripper that can handle complex manipulation tasks like bulb and bolt installation. It has three fingers with nine degrees of freedom (9 DoF), allowing precise control. Each finger moves using a special linkage system that enables flexible motion. The gripper can grasp objects of different shapes and adjust their positions accurately. Tests showed that it can lift up to 12 kg and apply a fingertip force of 40 N with high precision. Complex manipulation can be handled by robots! 🦾
