Are wheeled quadrupeds going to expire of loopy new methods to maneuver anytime quickly? Appears like perhaps not.

A large eye and tiny toes make this pipe inspection robotic exceptionally cute, I believe.

A brain-computer interface, surgically positioned in a analysis participant with tetraplegia, paralysis in all 4 limbs, supplied an unprecedented stage of management over a digital quadcopter—simply by occupied with transferring their unresponsive fingers. On this video, you’ll see simply how the participant of the research managed the digital quadcopter utilizing their mind’s thought indicators to maneuver a digital hand controller.
Hair styling is an important side of private grooming, considerably influenced by the looks of entrance hair. Whereas brushing is often used each to detangle hair and for styling functions, present analysis primarily focuses on robotic methods for detangling hair, with restricted exploration into robotic hair styling. This analysis presents a novel robotic system designed to mechanically alter entrance hairstyles, with an emphasis on path planning for root-centric strand adjustment.

Thanks, Kento!
If I’m understanding this accurately, should you’re cautious, it’s attainable to introduce chaos right into a blind juggling robotic to modify synced juggling to alternate juggling.

Drones with beaks? Certain, why not.

Take a look at this superb demo preview video we shot in our workplaces right here at OLogic previous to CES 2025. OLogic constructed this demo robotic for MediaTek to indicate off every kind of cool issues operating on a MediaTek Genio 700 processor. The robotic is a Create3 base with a customized tower (much like a TurtleBot) utilizing a Pumpkin Genio 700 EVK, plus a LIDAR and a Orbbec Gemini 335 digital camera on it. The robotic is operating ROS2 NAV and finds coloured balls on the ground utilizing an NVIDIA TAO mannequin operating on the Genio 700 and provides them to the map so the robotic can discover them. You’ll be able to direct the robotic via RVIZ to go choose up a ball and transfer it to wherever you need on the map.

We discover the potential of multimodal massive language fashions (LLMs) for enabling autonomous trash pickup robots to determine objects characterised as trash in advanced, context-dependent situations. By developing analysis datasets with human settlement annotations, we reveal that LLMs excel in visually clear circumstances with excessive human consensus, whereas efficiency is decrease in ambiguous circumstances, reflecting human uncertainty. To validate real-world applicability, we combine GPT-4o with an open vocabulary object detector and deploy it on a quadruped with a manipulator arm with ROS 2, displaying that it’s attainable to make use of this data for autonomous trash pickup in sensible settings.
