This video demonstrates the general concept that makes a differential wrist joint work. Both motors working together achieve two degrees of freedom. submitted by /u/Icy_Hat_7473 [link] [Kommentare]
I'm looking to buy a robot arm through AIFITLAB - has anyone done a major purchase through them recently? I'm looking to buy an AgileX NERO, price seems lower than US based companies which I know might be due to tariffs submitted by /u/Vassaci [link] [Kommentare]
https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.06139 https://youtu.be/DHiVz34QYlw We present MotionDisco, a framework that discovers contact-rich, long-horizon humanoid loco-manipulation motions from scratch, without relying on teleoperation or motion retargeting from human demonstrations. This is challenging because the space of possible contact interactions grows combinatorially with the task horizon and the number of objects in the scene. submitted by /u/Worldly_Evidence9113 [link] [Kommentare]
Another week of robotics marketing loops versus harsh field realities. In this week's breakdown, we are looking past investor decks to audit the actual friction of automating physical labor. Here is what we are covering in this episode: Figure’s 55/Week Ramp-Up: Production is accelerating, but commercial use cases are still in continuous development. Is scaling ahead of general application a massive capital gamble, or does their package-sorting livestream prove they're ready for structured work? Verobotics at NVIDIA Campus: A massive 100,000 sq ft facade deployment that ended up in a strict 60/40 operational compromise with human window washing crews because of live construction site dust. The 8.1B Parameter Bottleneck: Looking at RLWRLD’s new RLDX-1 model. Why graph optimization and real-time memory bandwidth constraints—not raw compute power—are the real bottlenecks for dexterous robotic hands. Spot's Purely Visual Blind Spots: Boston Dynamics paired Spot with DeepMind’s Gemini 1.6. What a sideways-crushed soda can proves about semantic reasoning models running without tactile force integration. FANUC x Google: Industrial giants bringing physical AI to factory floors, but keeping implementation highly conservative. submitted by /u/ButterscotchTiny1114 [link] [Kommentare]
